The GVT Isis


Description:

FS1 Tech Room Description

The Isis transport is quite fast and maneuverable for a ship of its size. Most often it is used for personnel transfer, although occasionally they have been known to act as repair ships and tugboats. It is well protected with its turrets, and it is not unheard of for the PVN to use a wing of Isises to conduct an assault on a fortified position.

FS2 Tech Room Description

The GVT Isis is most often used as a military personnel transport but also occasionally serves as a repair ship or even a tugboat, helping to maneuver large vessels into docking bays. Two cannon turrets and thick molybdenum plating serve to protect its cargo. Magnetic cargo locks located on the Isis's undercarriage enable it to transport small cargo containers of supplies and munitions in emergencies.

I've always wondered how the tall Vasudans fit in this thing. Tactically it's good, very hard to hit with good turret defenses and it tends to fly around a lot when hit.


This ship can act very... strangely... I've seen it do some weird flips and maneuvers that are quite impressive for a lumpy flying piece of junk... And it has a slim profile, and is half the size of an GTT Elysium. Because of those facts, it can be a difficult target to hit, especially when it starts flippin.
