Morinda-class Light Shuttle

Overview
The Morinda-Class Light Shuttle is a compact and efficient short-range transport craft designed for high-frequency, low-risk personnel and cargo transfers. Serving both the Imperial Republic Army and Marine forces, it is commonly used for planetary landings, fleet logistics, command staff movements, and diplomatic courier work.
At 60 meters, the Morinda strikes a balance between speed, survivability, and modular utility. It features moderate shielding, light weaponry, and excellent maneuverability, making it well-suited for deployments in semi-contested airspace and crowded fleet environments.
Its design prioritizes flexibility — equipped with configurable interior layouts to support passengers, small vehicle cargo, or mobile command consoles. While not a combat shuttle by design, its ion-resistant hull and defensive loadout make it more than capable of defending itself.
The Morinda is favored by forward commanders and staff officers for its speed, autonomy, and reliability, and is often used in support of larger landings conducted by Descent- or Epsilon-class vessels.
