Hull D

The MISC Hull D (UEE Military Starlift Command call-sign  R4M Quasar ) kicks off the larger end of the spectrum with a massive ship built around a rugged frame. The Hull D is affordable enough to be operated by mid-sized organizations and companies. They are often used as flagships for mercantile operations, but their bulk means that they should be operated with escorts when not in secure space. The UEE military uses modified versions of the Hull D as the backbone of their supply chain.

The Hull D cargo capacity is 648 32-SCU containers at full load. They are the minimum-equippable sized container for the RAFT, Hull C, Hull D and Hull E.

Testimonial
''“I started my career as hull gunner on an R4M Quasar [the military conversion of the MISC Hull D] and went on to command a lifter crew for nine years while supporting border actions and anti-piracy patrols. Got into more scrapes than I can count, shot up a dozen raiders and never lost a pallet. The fighter and bomber pilots I went to officer training with may get in the history books, but they wouldn’t be effective without the supply chain we provided. Not that there was a competition: I’ll tell you this, those boys on the front lines always make it easy… our fighter screen would raise hell to make sure the weekly mail drop came through.”''

- Colonel Yurg Cathonshew, UEE Military Starlift Command

Trivia

 * With a nominal load of 648 32-SCU containers, a Hull-D has a similar carrying capacity as a modern Feeder cargo container ship. A 32-SCU containers is roughly equivalent to a 40-foot container (FEU) and Feeder container-ships carry between 500 and 1,400 FEU.
