User:Kimagurena/Centaur-P 2325 Proposal

While a fully committed P-courier on a Centaur hull is rendered largely pointless by the advent of the Envoy class (though the design is archived below), one option for sourcing vessels purpose built for ferrying around the FDS is through a Centaur refit. At 10 BR 10 SR, this refit may not seem terribly expensive, but the cost is disappointing compared to a variety of alternatives, such as Sunrise's stripped down Miranda-P, Project Palanquin, and especially  Chaos Emerald.

Refit Cost: 10 BR, 10 SR from a Centaur-B; 20 BR, 10 SR to get back to a Centaur-B
