            EMlevel=Faint
Remarks:    Sorry folks, but I find the rule that 20 ton displacement
as a minimum for thrusters to be basically stupid and arbitrary.  If
you strongly disagree, a standard grav based fighter with the same
performance is possible with agility=3.

      I agree it is not proper to use thrusters and anti-grav drive
units for non space craft, but for space craft, I think it is
acceptable.
