Swallow MkV

Introducing the next-generation in spaceplanes, the Swallow MkV! This spaceship will be used to scout possible Martian landing sites. Like its namesake, it has a 40% to 70% lower fuel consumption than similar spaceplanes of the Swallow’s size, which will be very important on Mars.

In addition to being a sleek and speedy scout ship, this spaceplane is also an efficient cargo runner with its revolutionary Modular Replacement System (MRS) which makes swapping shipments a breeze. Other useful types of shipments can work with the MRS too, such as astronaut habitats and science tools. This will prove useful in constructing the very first planetary settlements.
