Overview
Far Arm shipyards stationed in Deneb system (G7) redesigned the famous Asp mk. II to incorporate fuel scoops and some cargo/passenger carrying capacity. This resulted in a slightly larger hull, but the new Asp Explorer still retains the flight characteristics that made its predecessor so well known. GalCop authorities have adopted the new design to police and navy operations, and civilian versions are slowly spreading to every corner of GalCop controlled area - and beyond, exploring the unexplored.
