Yes
The 2017 Q&A specifies a separate captain cabin and separate crew sleeping accommodation. This records the dated layout, not the proposed rework.
Latest known value · Dated design reference
3 × M7A Cannon (S5)
Current top-level direct gun mounts and their fitted children match the extracted direct pilot-gun count. Remote turret slaving is a separate documented assignment; a crew operator may override it.
Latest known value · Current published reference
2 remote turret configuration(s)
Turret types extracted separately from pilot guns. PDC is not a human gunner; remote control still needs its actual station mapping.
Latest known value · Current published reference
44 SCU
Latest build extracted cargo capacity in SCU, not door clearance or a guarantee that a single crate of this volume fits. Earlier matrix reference: 44 SCU.
Latest known value · Current published reference
Dedicated ground-vehicle lift
The original exploration-module design provides a rover lift plus cargo storage. It is not a guaranteed aircraft hangar or a current largest-fit measurement.
Latest known value · Dated design reference
Ground-vehicle restock provision
Alpha4.8 describes Carrack and600iExplorer as meant to restock ground vehicles that fit. This is not refueling every carried fighter or proof of a particular maximum fit.
Depends on configuration · Current published reference
5
Count of extracted configuration objects, distinct from advertised crew, usable positions and patient beds.
Latest known value · Current published reference

Raw bed objects without a functional medical tier, NOT sleeping capacity: includes bunk objects and may include medical-looking objects without medical function.

Origin rover, historical design example
The Q&A considered an 85X unlikely to fit safely; do not assume every craft smaller than the ship fits its lift. No largest current fit is established here.

Grid records can repeat shared templates. Not a vehicle clearance or a verified largest fit.

Hydrogen capacity (source-native units): 41; Hydrogen intake rate (source-native units): 150; Quantum fuel capacity (source-native units): 9.9; Extracted quantum range (m): 908256880734
Versioned fitted drive/configuration; calculated range is not a measured route or safety reserve. Unlabelled capacity units are not reinterpreted as litres.

Unknown does not mean absent.
Direct mounts and pilot-slaved remote turrets are different assignments. See Pilot-controlled armament for documented slaving and crew override. Mount size alone does not establish installed gun size.

4.10.2-LIVE.12881860. A bridge-controllable flag alone does not identify the pilot as operator. Documented pilot slaving is described separately above.
Current independent corrections are reflected in the facts above and in catalog search, filters and comparison. Imported reference data and immutable review history stay intact. Material corrections earn current hull credit once per contributor and independent reviewer, not per revision. Existing private ship wishlists can receive one in-app notice; no email is sent.
Rehearse the actual vehicle lift, a short surface route and a checked return without treating a proposed rework as installed.
SC Nomads planning advice. The linked visual guides contain controls, illustrated steps and dated sources. Hull-specific facts: CIG 600i Q&A, 31 August 2017 design reference; Alpha 4.8 service caveat , reviewed 2026-10-20; source reference, not a gameplay verification.
While landed, walk the entrance and operate the actual vehicle lift empty. Load the chosen vehicle only after checking clearance, your exit and access to the lift controls.
Ready when: You can leave the vehicle, reach the ship and repeat the unloading route.
The 2017 Q&A describes a rover lift, not a maximum-fit test. Do not infer clearance from dimensions or copy another 600i variant. Abandon the trial if the lift or exit is unusable.
Mark the ship location, agree a turn-back time and drive one short route. If the ship moves, have the pilot confirm a new pickup before you continue away.
Ready when: The ground team can return to an identified pickup and report who is aboard.
The old exploration scanning stations are a design reference, not a promise of a present paid exploration loop. Use the current navigation lesson rather than inventing a scanner hotkey.
Return on a clear approach, load without people below the lift and inspect the vehicle condition and any offered restock interaction before another sortie.
Ready when: Vehicle and crew are recovered and the next departure does not depend on an assumed service.
CIG Alpha 4.8 describes ground-vehicle restock provision for the 600i Explorer. That is not a promise of repair or refueling every vehicle. A proposed 600i medical rework is not an installed hospital.

No dated offer included for this hull yet. This does not mean it is unavailable.
Rentals are temporary access, not ownership. The PU rental timer continues while logged out, and rented component loadouts cannot be customized. Daily rates above do not establish discounts for longer rentals. RSI rental rules (updated 2026-04-28).
In-game purchases are distinct from pledges and may be affected by Alpha resets. RSI in-game purchase guidance.
Pledge availability and real-money prices have not been checked in this snapshot. Official ship information. An in-game offer does not establish pledge availability or that a game package is included.
Keep the first surface trip close to your parked ship. You cannot fly the 600i while driving the rover, and a lost lift or inaccessible entrance can end the trip.
5 advertised crew. This is an advertised crew reference, not a solo recommendation or passenger-seat count.
Record my 600i Explorer setup and resultsA pilot remains aboard while the ground team drives. Agree a recall location, who operates the lift and who confirms the vehicle and people are clear before movement.
