The Cutlass Black is a medium size ship with focus on combat and transport manufactured by Drake Interplanetary. It is the cargo version of the Cutlass variants that also features side opening doors instead of circular air-locks on port and starboard side and also has six jump-seats in the cargo bay. The ship features hardpoints for four size 3 weapons and two size 4 missile racks as well as a tractor beam.

“	Drake Interplanetary claims that the Cutlass Black is a low-cost, easy-to-maintain solution for local in-system militia units. The larger-than-average cargo hold, RIO seat and dedicated tractor mount are, the company literature insists, for facilitating search and rescue operations.	”
