An aerocutter is a small flying boat usually armed with a five barrel Nordenfelt mechanised organ gun capable of firing 500 rounds per minute. It relies on galvanic cells powering cavorite panels for lift and a Clayton & Shuttleworth steam engine for motive power through a pusher-propeller and to recharge the cells.
It is used on Mars as a mobile desert patrol vessel capable of carrying a squad of infantry or as a supply vessel for isolated outposts located away from a convenient canal. It is armoured and can set down on a flat surface as well as water.
In short it is a jack of all trades, the Royal Navy's colonial workhorse.
