Bustard

Bustard Hull: Badger Class Role: Transport Developer: Lai Dai Deep space transports are designed with the depths of lawless space in mind. Possessing defensive capabilities far in excess of standard industrial ships, they provide great protection for whatever cargo is being transported in their massive holds. They are, however, some of the slowest ships to be found floating through space.

Remodeling

When originally introduced, the Bustard was a reskin of the Badger Mark II model. In 2006 it was redesigned to be a reskin of the larger type-3 Badger model, an orphaned model which had never been used in the game. This served to differentiate it from the Crane (which also used the Badger Mark II model) and to put the type-3 Badger model to use. This makes it one of the only uniquely modeled Tech 2 ships in the game, as it is not a reskin of a Tech 1 ship.

Note that in spite of the unique model, the ship is still considered to be a variant of the Badger Mark II for invention purposes.
