The Aurora LN was a slight hull variant when it was introduced; I believe it had the additional intakes out the side. [What happens to those in the rework?]

Right. So specifically that: intakes obviously are still part of our ships. But in the Aurora, what we're going to do is the parts that are sticking out that were previously treated as intakes, we're going to now make those retro thrusters. So we'll be using that to help stop the ship. And the intakes will now be on the bottom and on the top. So the LN has this gigantic intake sitting on the back in addition to these gigantic intakes on the side. So now every version of the Aurora will have a small intake sitting on the back, and the LN will just have a bigger one of those and bigger retro thrusters on the sides.
