IPV-1 System Patrol Craft

Post Essential Guide to Warfare, you cannot talk about the Imperial Navy without talking about the IPV-1 System Patrol Craft.

The IPV is the most common vessel in the Imperial Navy, with up to 24 stationed on each system. It was commonly used by Imperial Customs.

The main issue with this vessel is that it is not supposed to have a hyperdrive. To get around this I plan on implementing 2 things:
  1. Giving the vessel an extremely slow hyperdrive.
  2. Stationing the IPV at Cardan-class stations and XQ1 Imperial Customs stations.
You can read the Wookiepedia summary of the ship here.

Technical Specifications

Here are the relevant stats I am using:

Role: Patrol Vessel / Customs Vessel / Corvette
Speed: 76 MGLT
Shielding: 400 SBD
Main Battery: 4 medium turbolasers
Secondary Weapons: 1 concussion missile launcher
Anti-Fighter Weapons: None
Complement: None
Availability: Tech Level 1

I am currently just using the default model for now.

Have a model I can use for this? Let me know.
