The MT2000 Brachiator was built for monkeys. Well, okay....not really monkeys, per say, but for a race of beings that are a dead ringer for the terrestrial monkey. If you look closely at the front, where the forward laser emanates from, you will see that it is firing out of the mouth of a monkey head. There are also two monkey heads on the aft wings. These monkey heads are busts of the King of the Mosierie (the monkey people). Besides monkey heads, there is an aft beam laser, and two ball turrets on front, and back of the ship. The Mosierie (the monkey people) wanted a cargo ship, with a decent cargo capacity, and the ability to defend itself. It seems they have lost several of their own vessels due to under powered weaponry, as well as way under powered engines. Hopefully the MT2000 Brachiator will solve that problem for them. Mandotech Industries is also offering this ship on the open market, with the agreement of the Mosierie. It's weird looking, but flies pretty darn well. Enjoy. Stats are as follows:

max_cargo = 30
max_energy = 380
energy_recharge_rate = 3.4
max_flight_speed = 400
max_flight_pitch = 1.3
max_flight_roll = 1.5
thrust = 40
Base Cost = 450,000

I'm trying not to think about where the aft laser is

***ROTFL***

You know, I never even thought of that. Kind of puts a whole new spin on the thing.

Well, monkeys do throw their poop......

LOL!! Don't tempt me to do something that really looks that way. Heck, I just put the monkey heads on the thing because Blender actually has them as a shape to add to the model, like a sphere, or cube. It was weird, but fun.
