Vaaliv-na Atmospheric Transport class

The largest of the Telian atmospheric-flight capable transport vessels, the Vaaliv-na Atmospheric Transport class ships are capable of both atmospheric flight and low orbital flight, which allows them to be used to ferry materials and goods from planetary orbit to the surface. The nature of space transport leads to the creation of ships far too large to land on planetary bodies, hence the need for a class of vehicles that can operate in this capacity. The crew complement of this ship class is 5 flight officers and 10 to 20 cargo specialists.
