Other sitesThe Drake Interplanetary Kraken is marketed by its manufacturer as an Attack Carrier[1], and designated by popular ship dealers as a multi-role Light Carrier.[2] With comfortable habs for a full crew, mammoth cargo capacity, and enough armament to blow even the most daunting frigate out of the sky. This self-sustaining flying fortress is the most ambitious project Drake has ever undertaken, and a testament to the empowerment of the people.[1]
