Goods Container OXZ
Externally mounted cargo cannisters, installed on any available missile hardpoint. These are available in the Equipment section of any reputable shipyard:
- The 5-ton cannister for 5,000 cr (tech level 6+)
- The 10-ton cannister for 10,000 cr (tech level 6+)
- The 20-ton cannister for 20,000 cr (tech level 6+).
NB. Since Goods Containers are technically classed as 'mines', they are not to be 'dropped' in flight! And you are advised to run with weapons offline while carrying them.
As a precautionary step prior to purchasing any Goods Container, please "unmount and sell all pylon mounted weapons" in the shipyard first. You will see a message confirming your container installation if all goes well, and then you may verify your ship's increased capacity on the Market screen.
A few examples, using FE Ships as a baseline:
20-ton Container:
Adder FE: 15 TC base + cargo bay extension = 30 TC + 1x Goods Container = 50 TC.
Krait FE: 17 TC base + 4x Goods Containers = 97 TC.
Viper II FE: 30 TC base + cargo bay extension = 45 TC + 3x Goods Containers = 105 TC.
Cobra Mk 3 FE: 55 TC base + cargo bay extension = 70 TC + 4x Goods Containers = 150 TC.
