The Discblade transport was one of the first designs by Kraechar Arms. Like the Shii-Cho-class transport, it was praised for its performance, unlike early combat designs produced by Kraechar Arms. Rugged, reliable, and simple, it was a hallmark design of Kraechar Arms, serving admirably in its inglorious role. The Discblade was a medium transport, designed primarily for hauling cargo on short jumps, chiefly surface-to-orbit hauls, though it was equipped with a hyperdrive as well.
