Type 6 Transporter blueprint

This is the blueprint for the Lakon Spaceways Type-6 Transporter. The Type-6 is the perfect freighter, with capacity for over 100T of cargo when the ship is shielded. Sadly, if you want to win a fight you can't run from, you'll need the more expensive and better armed Keelback.

First introduced in version 0.1 Beta 1.
