COMMENTS
The Camel class Fleet Cargo vessels are externally the same as the
Colander
class Commerce Raiders, making for interesting tactical opportunities.
Their
2G J4 performance allows equivalent strategic mobility to battle
groups, but
their lower maneuver performance allows them more space for cargo. The

weapons load is much lower than the Colander class, and there are fewer

backup systems and staterooms, but the cargo holds can take care of the

ship for over 33 weeks, or it can share these supplies with its sister
vessels to
extend their time on station.
