Vessel An extra large XR series vessel.

I would like to see an XR vessel that is similar in size to the Arrow Freighter, that could be used as a "mother ship" like the Arrow can. I like the Arrow a lot and I just thought it would be great to have an XR freighter or something. Would that be cool or what! I know it would be awesome.

Cool indeed ... an XR-BFG10K.

(Big Freighter Galactic-Class, 10k, of course!)

Where would you land it? It's difficult enough to land the XR5 on a 2 km long strip.

Leave it in permanent orbit, overhauled at freighter processing facility a la Star Trek.

So... the vanguard isn't extra large? :blink:

Well it is "only" roughly the size of the A380......

It doesn't experience ground effect in 250 km altitude, so it must be considered small. :lol:

I think the biggest problem for a very large XR vehicle is that it would be different to the other vessels and require a lot of changes to the code. Usually, the XR vessels are based on a similar source code, with just changed spacecraft parameters.
