Okta-Class Bulk Freight Carrier
A high-capacity cargo hauler designed for interstellar freight transport within Naplian-controlled trade networks.
Overview
The Okta-Class Bulk Freight Carrier is the backbone of Naplian interstellar logistics, designed for large-scale cargo hauls across established trade corridors. Featuring reinforced cargo bays, automated handling systems, and efficient fuel management, the Okta-Class is well-suited for long-duration freight missions.
Due to its high-capacity cargo hold, it is frequently employed for industrial-grade material transport, colony resupply missions, and high-volume trade runs. While not a combat vessel, its reinforced hull and basic ECM suite provide a measure of protection against pirate interference.
Naplian shipping firms favor the Okta-Class due to its low maintenance costs, modular cargo configurations, and excellent fuel economy. Many older Okta-Class ships have been retrofitted for specialized roles, including mobile refineries, orbital warehouses, and even repurposed colony ships.
The Okta-Class remains one of the most reliable bulk freight carriers in the Estra Galaxy, supporting interstellar trade and commerce across multiple Naplian-controlled systems. With its robust design, modular capabilities, and cost-efficient operations, it remained in service for centuries.
