The Dart – High-Speed Tactical/Utility Craft
History & Design
The Dart’s development history is… complicated. Initially conceived as an escape pod, the prototype proved too large, too heavy, and frankly, too over-engineered for its intended role. But what emerged was something far more versatile: a blisteringly fast, modular craft adopted by both civilian operators and military forces. With its robust hull and adaptable frame, the Dart excels as a short-range explorer, rapid delivery vessel, or precision boarding craft—depending on who’s footing the bill.
