The EC Fighter/Transport Ship Class

File:Ecclass.jpg
This here is the EC ship class, in all its box shaped glory. There are several variants of this ship, such as increased armor, increased cargo hold, or increased weapon ports. The standard EC ship (the EC-88) comes with one small weapon port.

Game's Description

The EC family of multipurpose spacecraft forms the broad base of general ship use in the galaxy. Originally designed and manufactured as a transport by TPG during the early years of UIT off world colonization, it now sees wide use with all nations. Whether the needs are basic combat, light transport duty, even mining or other special-case uses, the EC series can handle it all. IT is not considered a specialized ship, but there are many variants of it that lend themselves better to one type of use or another. For instance, the Axia EC-101 MkII provides heavier armor for combat use, while the Valent EC-101 Type B includes expanded cargo capacity for trading or transport usage.
