Habitation describes living quarters with a bed. Wiki points to CNOU Nomad launch; this research did not independently recover that original body. Last-modified 2026-09-29 is page metadata, not a berth playtest. Reference count only; bed logout, guest permissions and current functionality were not tested.

3 × CF-337 Panther Repeater (S3)
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
1 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
24 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: 24 SCU.

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.
Complete a modest cargo handoff or a checked vehicle pickup without treating the open deck as a passenger cabin.
SC Nomads planning advice. The linked visual guides contain controls, illustrated steps and dated sources. Hull-specific facts: CIG Fury Q&A, rear-bay example; checked 20 October 2026 , reviewed 2026-10-20.
Land on clear ground, protect yourself for the local atmosphere, and lower the cargo access before bringing a box or vehicle up to it.
Ready when: The loading route is clear and the load does not rely on a person standing beneath it.
CIG’s Fury Q&A identifies the Nomad rear bay as a possible snub carrier. That example is not a universal rover, snub or current physics guarantee.
Use the fitted tractor’s visible controls or the linked hand-tool lesson as appropriate. Confirm box placement or park the checked vehicle, stop its movement, and walk the exit route.
Ready when: The load remains in its intended position and everyone has returned to a safe flight location.
A tractor lock is not proof of a secured cargo-grid state. If a vehicle rocks or clips, unload and simplify the trial rather than trusting advertised volume.
At the destination, unload before starting the vehicle’s own lesson; keep a known pickup point and check the return load before the next flight.
Ready when: The vehicle or snub and its operator have a practical recovery route.
Carrying a miner does not make this ship a mining refinery. A Fury still lacks a quantum drive, and the carrier pilot remains responsible for returning it.
Selected community reports, checked 2026-10-20. Confirm the current price and availability at the terminal before spending aUEC.
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.
The Nomad is a lone-pilot light freighter. Park before operating its fitted tractor or walking out to the rear deck; do not try to fly, load and supervise a vehicle simultaneously.
1 advertised crew. This is an advertised crew reference, not a solo recommendation or passenger-seat count.
Record my Nomad setup and resultsA friend can drive the vehicle or handle boxes while you position the carrier. Agree the load-clear signal and a separate safe place for each person during flight.
