The Argo3 [Space Patrol]

The Argonaut 3, or more commonly Argo3, is Captain Jax's patrol craft. The ship is designated with "3" because the previous two were destroyed in previous missions. United Planetary Federation (UPF) command determined these were NOT Cpt Jax's fault and allowed him to keep his commission. His sometimes on, sometimes off again 'secret' relationship with one particular Admiral Deenala is rumored to have had something to do with this. Both parties have adamantly denied these baseless allegations.

While the Argo3 is a relatively new ship, it has already seen numerous missions, including the recent rescue mission of Senator Sharrador when he was abducted by the notorious criminal Baron Balthazar. Luckily, the Argo3's crew was able to rescue the senator without sustaining too much damage to the craft. This damage allowed Cadet Happy, the whizkid sidekick of Cpt Jax, to make a few alterations to the Space Patrol standard specifications for the XB-17, hence the addition of the 'd' to the model.

Cadet Happy's modifications include; a 23.7% propulsion efficiency, an aft-mounted Radcon mini-space mine launcher, more than doubled the strength of the magnetic coupling, adding a pleasant sensory disperser to the ScrubbertronO2 3000, adding a touchscreen to the the craft's Bentelycraft ElectroReader, and adding AtomiCorp's new RadOven to the galley so the crew can enjoy a warm meal on long flights. In his spare time, he also swapped out the crew seats to a more plush design and repainted the Argo3 to Cpt Jax's preferred shade of orange.
