The MkIV lands on two small rear struts and one large front strut which doubles as a boarding ramp to the cockpit. | The MkIV lands on two small rear struts and one large front strut which doubles as a boarding ramp to the cockpit. | ||
By default, the MkIV has weaker shields than the MkIII due to its higher hull mass. However, the MkIV is capable of fitting a larger, class-4 [[Shield Generator|shield generator]], unlike the MkIII's class-3. This, combined with an improved hull, gives the MkIV superior protection. | |||
These improvements over the MkIII come with the drawbacks of slightly reduced manoeuvrability and speed. The MkIV also features a larger hull, which makes it a bigger target. Like the MkIII, it has poor [[heat]] dissipation. Prolonged usage of high-output modules easily pushes the ship's temperature over its cooling capacity. | These improvements over the MkIII come with the drawbacks of slightly reduced manoeuvrability and speed.
