Nautilus

The Nautilus is a minelayer and minesweeper spacecraft developed by [Aegis Dynamics](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RAdk7jx5Kv-aegis-dynamics) and utilized by the [United Empire of Earth](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth) (UEE) [Navy](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RPDvKOpdP4-uee-navy). It is capable of deploying several different types of mines for both offensive and area-denial purposes along simultaneous vectors in 3D space. Its command deck allows the monitoring and activation of these weapons. A model of the Nautilus has recently become available on the civilian market for private concerns seeking protection for space-based assets like stations or mining claims.
