The Stag Beetle MkXIII is a reeingineered version of a patrol shuttle that had been in service a few decades ago. The Terran Federal Council arranged a competition to find the best design for a new line of VIP-transport-ships.
A subsidary of Eisenstar Fleetsystems could get their's accepted, outperformed all other aspirants and eventually won a head-to-head race against their final competitors who lined up with an overhauled civilian shuttle. The ship was decided to be produced in a small capacity of 1003 units.

Notable things:
- Shields rely more on recharge than on capacity since it is assumed that in its role the ship would not be attacked by something bigger than itself.
- There is still space for a custom modification(JumpDrive for example) depending on the customer's convenience. It can easily be fitted in the hollow space behind the activation panel on the first floor
- The ship is armed with two powerful high caliber HE(explosive effect-On impact the projectiles rip 3x2x3 round holes in anything except for hardened hull ) cannons, accessible from 2 seperate locations, dealing 800 damage per shot at a relatively fast rate of fire. In addition there are two light turrets mounted on the underside to deal with pirates and other not severe threats.
