Template:Ship Class Infobox This unidentified transport craft is a type of civilian transport ship. At least five were used to evacuate both soldiers and civilians from New Alexandria during the Fall of Reach. During this evacuation, one of these ships was destroyed upon take-off from the New Alexandria Starport.[1]

The passenger capacity of these vessels is unknown, but it is known that they can accommodate at least 600 people; on their undercarriage they are capable of hauling up to five massive cargo containers, likely for storing luggage, and in the event of an evacuation, provisions and munitions.

There were also several dozen of these transports in the Aszod ship breaking yards. They appear to be decommissioned like the frigates and cruisers seen near them. The fact that they are alongside military ships may indicate that they are used by the military as cargo haulers, although it is also possible that the shipyards are meant for both military and civil purposes.[2]
