I only got the pic done right now. I'll put the specs up in a bit. It is a PMT/FT Space Tug.

Jerico-Class Space Tug
Overview
The Jerico was designed as a short range, high capacity, space tug. While relatively small, its four accelerated ion engines allow massive thrust to come from such a tiny ship.
General
Type: Short Range, High Capacity Space Tug
Dimensions:
Length: 40 meters
Width: 7 meters
Height: 7 meters
Max. Acceleration: 5,000G
Crew: 1-2 (Pilot, optional Loadmaster)
Shields: None
Armament: None
Cost: Can someone help me on this one? I've never made a PMT or FT ship before, and dont know pricing.
Propulsion
The ship is powered by four Accelerated Ion Engines mounted on 2 lagre, rotatable pylons. AIEs, unlike normal Ion engines, which only use electron bombardment and magnetic fields to accelerate charged particles filters the positively charged atoms into a particle accelerator. Here the Ions are accelerated to a velocity near that of light. When these particles are expelled, they can provide the starship with over 20 times the thrust of a normal Ion engine. These allow the ship to pull a great ammount of mass while still retaining a great ammount of acceleration.
It does not come with a Hyperdrive.
Magnetic Tethers
The Jerico comes equiped with 8 Magnetic Tethers. (4 fore, 4 aft) These tethers are launched at whatever you want to pull, and through the use of powerful electro-magnets, attached to the object.
