Lightning [HighFleet Conversion] - Now with LEGS!

"Lightning-class space capsules were originally used for scouting operations above Europa's surface. After humanity's descent into depths, these hulls were salvaged and stripped of most parts; only a handful survived, remade as submarines. With ballast tanks replacing liquid jet fuel stores and rocket engines swapped for chainguns, Lightning stays true to its nature even underwater: fast, fragile and void of any crew comfort. In the hands of a skilled crew, however, Lightning can work wonders."

This sub is based on a light interceptor corvette "Lightning" from the game HighFleet. Intended for early campaign.
