Goods Container OXZ
Externally mounted cargo cannisters, installed on any available missile hardpoint. The following 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 'fired' or jettisoned 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 couple of 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.
Cobra Mk 3 FE: 55 TC base + cargo bay extension = 70 TC + 4x Goods Containers = 150 TC.
