Capsule. The Lambda MSS (Mine Sweeper, Space) is currently the standard
minesweeper in the Imperial Navy.

The unique design of the Lambda Shuttle made it ideal to carry sweeps
against mines, because the wings enable the Lambda MSS to sweep in
three dimensions instead of the normal two.

On the tip of each wing is a remote-controlled Mine Disposal Vehicle
mounted, which when deployed helps to sweep for mines.
The system is hooked into a powerful emitter which projects a weak grav
field around the Mine Disposal Vehicles.
This grav field confuses most of the standard mine types into believing
that a large vessel is passing by, and the mine explodes.

The main weakness of this system is that the minesweeping vessel is
unprotected directly in front, which means that the sweeper must keep
a good lookout or suffer a fatal hit by a mine.
These minesweepers operates normally in pairs to help avoid such incidents.

The Lambda MSS carries 15 Mine Disposal Vehicles since these are often
lost when a mine is encountered.
The Lambda have also four crewmembers who are trained to use special EVA
vaccum pods and manually disarm mines.
