It's a passenger shuttle that is meant to be used when important 
passengers or cargo must be transported but a starfighter
escort is not feasible.  It has quite enough firepower to defend itself
against most opponents.  The two primary weapons are controlled by one
gunner, while the quad laser battery is controlled by another.
