==Design==
===Overview===
The has a rugged and bulky exterior, making it heavily distinguishable compared to many ships. It has been confirmed that nanotechnology was implemented to make the carrier suitable for endless modifications suited to the commander's preferences.
===Armor===
The outer surface was fitted with the NSA Orbital Armor, a state-of-the-art battleship armour designed to protect the vessel from the outside and the inside; It was also complemented with Burlington spacecraft armor, which was usually used by Nexus Global Space Administration spacecrafts. Estimated cost of these armors are around 20 billion GC. While the secondary armor utilised silicon infused steel and Setvian Alloy to reduce manufacturing costs.
The MK4's innermost surface are protected by Setvian Composite, which has also been combined with multiple polymer-grade layers and anti-shrapnel panels.
===Weaponry===
The is armed with ten M880 turret cannons as the primary armament; Used for long range combat against enemy vessels. It was best known for it's SWARM missile armaments, as they are twenty of them mounted on various parts of the ship itself; Which can be used for suppressive fire on scouting missions.

===Engine and Propulsion===
The Scouter runs on the 3rd generation of the reowned hyperdrive engine; The X4 V10 Darkova. It was a Starburst Nevian proprietary advanced propulsion system that allowed a warship to reach beyond lightspeed and traverse the void between stars in the alternate dimension of hyperspace. As a consequence, all hyperdrive engines on these ships were a key instrument in shaping galactic society, trade, politics and war.
Propulsion systems are the standard X2-CEVB; Even if it's a slightly above average model, It specializes in forced cooling and usage, which maintains the ship mobile even if it suffered extensive overheating and sustained damage.
