Overview:
"So it has less range than an LRM Carrier."
"And more than that of an SRM Carrier. And no minimum range."
"Hmm. Not as accurate as the first, does less damage than the second."
"It also has more than three times the armour. So less likely to end up a wreck
when someone sneezes near it."
"Fair. However, don't fuel cell engines have a shorter range than combustion
engines?"
"We fitted a larger fuel tank. Problem solved."
"Doesn't that make it heavier?"
"Actually, it's lighter."
"Oh? Then the cost..."
"Around two-thirds that of a Quikscell LRM Carrier."
"...sold."

I'm not sure who builds these but I imagine one of the selling points is "better quality control than Quikscell."
