Well, its meant to be a performance vehicle more than anything else, something of a 'Space Hotrod'. From a realistic viewpoint, it is conceivable that the civilian market may reach for higher speeds before the military in some cases, especially when it comes to making a ride with such a quirky power system to where it actually has to be fueled up, who does that anymore, ya know?
As for the kit that went onto it, I attempted to flavor it up with text, though admittedly yes I did link to a lot of pre-existing articles and did work in a lot of pre-existing equipment; though, that does come from the fact that the Lorath's industrial base for the civilian market is in fact the same industrial base as the military, cheaper to just continue to use the same manufacturing process as pre-existing vehicles, instead of attempting to work up a new manufacturing process. Of course, none of the components are anything really high-tier to the point of being classified or a crucial and scarce asset.
As for the hull, I did botch that up after I thought on it. I just grabbed the armor SP value right off of the damage chart, forgetting that little hoop that needed hopping. I changed it now though.
Fixes:
Changed SP values.
Added fuel range for STL speeds (Oh noes! It can run out of gas!)
