Freighter

The Freighter, manufactured by Syndicated Shipyards, is a slow, medium-sized cargo ship.
== Description ==
The Freighter is designed by the Syndicate to be an efficient means of carrying cargo from system to system, but is so slow and difficult to land that most pilots hate flying them.
Freighters are an obvious target for pirates, but turn much too slowly to be able to bring any forward-facing guns to bear on an approaching enemy. As a result, the latest model of freighter is equipped only with turrets, including an anti-missile turret to prevent attackers from simply bombarding them into submission from a safe distance.
== Location ==
Freighters can be purchased at the following ports:
* Delve, Scheat

== Performance Information ==
This is a sister ship to the Star Barge. The Freighter can jump faster and haul more cargo and passengers than the Star Barge, making it a solid but slow upgrade for players interested in being merchant captains.
Being primarily a cargo vessel, the Freighter is not suited for combat.
