Cyclops (talk) 17:50, 2 April 2020 (PDT) I have been looking over the details of the smaller Star Wars sourced vessels after finding out how badly sized the Phantom Class Starship is, see Talk:Phantom Class Starship for details on that. This ship, however, seems more reasonable. If we figure on the 12 foot deck the way we did before, this ship is 12 meters tall, that is around 39 feet. While a 12 foot deck would mean 36 feet, that is only 3 feet off of the sourced 39 and far more reasonable to just go with.

Shuttle Craft and Aux Vehicle Sizes

Assuming the internal schematic of the ship is used for role playing that means 5' squares. This means that the exit to the shuttle bays is only 10 feet wide at most, which is only 3 meters. The Type 7 Shuttle Craft is one of the smallest at 3.6 meters wide. We can resolve this in one of two ways -- we can fudge that the exit to the ship is big enough, there IS enough room if one assumes that the doors are bigger which is easy to do. We also have markings on the deck in the internal schematic that indicates the floor opens up. That makes sense for a cargo hold as well, so we're going with it. Thus, it is safe to assume the bay can handle vertical take off and landing of a vessel 6 meters wide since the markings on the deck indicate an opening that is approximately 20 feet wide.

The vessel also has room for a vehicle in the lower deck that is about 1 meter wide (1.5 is the space available). This can easily fit an ATV or something of similar size.
