Class: Deep-Sea Combat-Assault Research Vessel (DS-CARV) Price: 50 000 Tier: IV Recommended crew size: 5 Veteran or 6 Professionals or 7 Experienced Dimensions: 95x45m

Objectives:Engage and neutralize hostile abyssal entities, conduct field cybernetic/biological augmentations, and investigate anomalous phenomena in Europa's high-pressure zones for Euro-Colonial Marine Research Division.

The "Scartarus" represents the pinnacle of Euro-Colonial deep-sea engineering, combining military-grade durability with cutting-edge research capabilities. Its triple-reinforced titanium-kevlar hull can withstand direct assaults from mature Abyssal Hunters, while the advanced pressure compensation systems allow operations at extreme depths. This vessel serves as the backbone for both ECA expeditionary teams and special combat units operating in Europa's most dangerous territories. Its unique configuration - featuring standard research labs alongside a classified genetic modification facility - has also made it highly sought after by smuggling syndicates, who value its perfect balance of firepower and discreet operational profile.

Core Systems

1. Propulsion - Boost Drive - Silent Running

2. Weapons - 6 turrets (2 chainguns, 2 double coilguns, and 1 railgun) with automatic fire switching (excluding the railgun). - 2× Depth charges (toggle between HE/PULSE) - Dual ammo loaders (2× capacity per turret)

3. Defense - Ballast Control System - Compartment Pressure Monitoring - Intruder Detection System - Holographic damage display (real-time leak tracking)

Battery Recuperation System
