== Description ==
After the Korath were exiled from their homelands, efficient resource collection became a priority. World-ships were too precious to risk on dangerous forays, and raiders lacked the cargo capacity. The Rano'erek-class Asteroid Dredging Ship, named for a respected civilian politician and economist, was born as an answer to this problem.
Featuring an abundance of cargo and passenger space in addition to their formidable defensive armament, these bulky ships can also offer potent support for frontline Palavrets.
== Location ==
The Rano'erek cannot be purchased, but appears in some Korath fleets and Remnant missions. They can also be encountered in Human space close to the Core (i.e. Syndicate and Pirate systems).

== Information ==
* The only way to obtain this ship is by capturing it.
* Boarding a Rano'erek and looting its Jump Drive is one of the potential ways to obtain the latter early. However, it's much more difficult to fight than a Palavret, as they're stronger and bigger.
* This ship used to be known as the Korath Dredger.
* It resembles the Manticore from Escape Velocity Nova.
* This ship makes an excellent flagship. With its high number of bunks, it is often difficult to capture (though it actually has fewer minimum crew than the Palavret), but very useful for capturing others in turn. It can be a useful stepping stone for capturing a World Ship. It also has high cargo space, and is thus well suited to plundering, as well as large fuel reserves, enabling long distance travel.
* There is a rare variant of the Rano'erek called the Rano'erek ground assault (stats in parentheses). Sacrificing cargo- and outfit space for more bunks. It can be a good stepping stone for obtaining a worldship and can be encountered during the Remnant Ground Assault job, rarely offered on the Job Board. This version of the Rano'erek is superior in terms of boarding, having over 50+ more bunks when taken to it's extreme.
