The location of the Life Pods in any starship design is of critical importance. In the Vanguard, they are placed between both of the highest populated areas of the Ship. The Crisis System Arm automatically seals off any Launch Tubes ensuring a quick launch and also keep air leaks to a minimum. Typically TIU Captains also upgrade these systems with security capabilities. This ensures that the Crisis System Arm will attack any unauthorised personnel when detected. |
