The Kilo-class is a very old and miniscule pattern of mining ship, produced in vast numbers over the centuries and commonly found in scrapyards or forgotten in storage. Most examples on the Frontier have been restored by Miskilamo Spacefaring using parts from other nonfunctional Kilos, producing a ship that is as inexpensive as it is cramped and unreliable. The low cost and ease of repair or replacement nevertheless make the Kilo very popular among budget-minded captains.

"This ship is terrible! It stinks, it's ugly, it's dirty, it has a cockroach infestation, the previous crew probably all died, this purple fungus-thing keeps making these weird-ass noises and honestly it's a miracle this ship can even take off! And don't even get me started on the maniac that wired this shit!"
— Average mechanic about the Kilo-class.
Introduction
The Kilo-class is a small mining ship designed by Miskilamo Spacefaring. The hull itself is extremely compact, which transfers into it's high speed. In typical Miskilamo fashion, every living facility has just enough space to fit the essentials, and basically nothing more. The ship does however come with enough equipment to mine semi-efficiently.
While the Kilo is definitely not the greatest ship ever, many spacers still manage to love it with their whole hearts, partially due to it's very unique aesthetic.
List of standard equipment and features:
- A functional smelter setup.
- Two double-barrel shotguns for hunting and self-defense purposes.
- Some specialized mining gear, such as a handheld drill, a scanner and an EVA suit.
- Maurice the tamed mi-go.
Gameplay
Kilo's intended purpose is mining - and that's what you are best equipped to do. Your handheld drill is one of the better tools for mining efficiently above the ground, while your mining scanner will help you locating underground deposits.
Of course, mining is not the only thing you can do. For example, a Kilo can be very easily turned into a salvage ship - all it needs is just a couple plasma cutters.
