Action-Keynne XII-Class Armed Bulk Freighter

Image

The Action-Keynne XII is a departure from normal bulk freighter design. Where most bulk freighters are conceived with an eye for economy and profitability, the Action-Keynne XII is intended for those for whom money is no object. Fast, well armed, capable of transporting large amounts of cargo, and featuring luxurious accommodations for crew and passenger alike, the Action-Keynne XII sets the current standard for bulk transports in the galaxy; everything else is second best.

The Action-Keynne XII is the result of a design request by the Sarkan Federation. Immensely wealthy due to their planet's rich mineral and gem deposits, they wanted a bulk transport that could quickly deliver its cargo, even at great distances, and defend itself from attack, as well as being a comfortable home away from home. Corellian Engineering Corporation produced the Action-Keynne XII to their specifications, but demand for the ship in certain circles led CEC to produce it in a limited run for other customers, mainly wealthy shipping magnates, or the occasional rich customer who has sense to go with his money. The ship has proven to be an excellent design (as should be expected for the price), and no one who has managed to get his or her hands on an Action-Keynne XII will let it go easily. As such, at this time, the ships are only available new from CEC.
