== Description ==
The Aphid is the lightest freighter used by the Hai and was for many millennia the backbone of the Hai interplanetary economy. Because of how peaceful Hai space has been for much of its history, Aphids only come with basic defenses as stock, and rely on larger Hai ships for more serious protection.

== Performance Information ==
The Aphid is not especially powerful, but since it comes with space-efficient Hai outfits as stock equipment, it can pack more in than a human ship of equivalent size.
It is also possible to take advantage of the peaceful nature of Hai space, by purchasing Aphids and stripping them of everything except engines and steering, then installing five Cargo Expansions (or Bunk Rooms). With no pirate threat aside from the Unfettered Hai fleets in Wah Ki, a fleet of cargo-carrying Aphids can grow exponentially.
== Information ==
* The Aphid is one of the few ships to have more than 1 variant available for sale.
