Description[edit]
This is an example of a typical small satellite factory station built to provide materials which have been produced or refined in zero-G conditions. While they had been neglected during the Succession Wars, the resurgence of technology has seen a similar resurgence in factory station construction.
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
Small factory stations are mostly poorly armed or unarmed and only modestly armored.

The Cargo Bays are used for processing and storage.
Bay 1: Small Craft (2) - 2 doors
Bay 2: Cargo (958.5 tons) - 2 doors
Bay 3: Factory Unit (1) - 2 doors
Variants[edit]
There are numerous variations, depending on level of automation, weight, armament, and other factors.
