OPC Wanderer - Exploration Vessel

NO MODS | OPTIONAL SCRIPTS | SURVIVAL READY CONTAINS: DLC | SUBGRIDS (EASY CONSTRUCTION)

Since the first flights through the unknown region, it has become clear that the efforts of Inquisitive alone are not enough to explore all the objects that have come under the control of the newly formed Consolidation. Given that the independent mining colonies that were previously under constant threat from the pirate barons did not have sufficient resources to build a large number of Inquisitive class ships, it was decided to build ships of smaller size and autonomy, but capable of exploring local territories in the area of their unloading. According to the idea, these ships were supposed to follow the Inquisitive after which, when finding the zones of interest by mother ship, were dispersed along them.

The half-completed Wanderer project, however, was frozen due to the escalation of the conflict in Border Worlds, and the subsequent military skirmishes with the organizations adjacent to the OPC territory completely rejected the priority of development, forcing it to give way to the projects of warships and stations. By the time the conflict with other organizations ended, the Consolidation decided to review the plans for conducting research missions and resumed work on the project. Thanks to its growing influence, a sharp increase in population, an industrial boom, and the strengthening of foreign trade, OPC decided to use the achievements of the Wanderer project to build a ship to replace the outdated Inquisitive.

The new ship received extended autonomy, a hangar for the GST reconnaissance transport and a small dock for the pathfinder drone. Using all their experience in ship design, the Consolidation engineers were able to fit almost all the necessary Inquisitive equipment into the new ship at a smaller size, which allows the Wanderer to be used as a field headquarters, mobile base or deep space exploration ship. This opportunity interested not only OPC leaders but also external buyers, so this model has gained its place in the export market.
