Official advertised crew reference, row updated 2026-03-10 20:32:01. Distinct from extracted station/payload counts and practical solo operation.
Latest known value · Official matrix snapshot
Beds; Bathroom; Breakout area; Food preparation facilities
Facilities documented in the launch-era Q&A; no bed count or endurance range inferred.
Latest known value · Dated design reference · Not verified in current gameplay
remote turret default pilot-slaved
CIG Alpha4.1 explicitly names this default assignment. Direct pilot mounts and pilot-slaved remote weapons are different; actual station occupation can affect control.
Depends on configuration · 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
192 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: 192 SCU.
Latest known value · Current published reference
Personnel lift is not intended for vehicle loading
CIG describes the crew lift as personnel-only, not an intended vehicle route. No largest-fit measurement is claimed.
Latest known value · Dated design reference · Not verified in current gameplay
1
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.
Latest known value · Current published reference
3
Build extractor source-listed crew field. Its counting semantics differ from advertised crew and may include payload/station configuration. Not a physical capacity or recommended crew.

Remote Turret
Exact listed utility mounts; current function and station access need the hull-specific source.

Grid records can repeat shared templates. Not a vehicle clearance or a verified largest fit.
Latest known value · Current published reference
Hydrogen capacity (source-native units): 8; Hydrogen intake rate (source-native units): 0; Quantum fuel capacity (source-native units): 7.2; Extracted quantum range (m): 1100917431193
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.
Prove a safe container handoff before treating listed capacity as a shipment.
SC Nomads planning advice. The linked visual guides contain controls, illustrated steps and dated sources. Hull-specific facts: CIG RAFT introduction, historical exterior-container design; checked 20 October 2026 , reviewed 20 October 2026; not a current capacity guarantee.
Compare the manifest with current load interfaces. Use the one-box drill and check safe access below and around the ship.
Ready when: The first load is accepted and people have an exit route.
Historical launch layout is not a current packing diagram. Official descriptions and snapshots differ; this plan adds no capacity figure or automatic-loading promise.
Have the handler leave the area, inspect freight and ship state, then use existing clearance/departure cards.
Ready when: Ship, freight and people have room for movement.
A cargo indicator does not establish ground clearance. Stop and inspect the actual landing stance instead of lifting while someone is beneath the load.
Land where handling is supported, secure the ship, transfer the containers and inspect the actual objective result.
Ready when: Receiving objective and remaining load are both accounted for.
External carriage is not the Hermes internal hold. Freight near a terminal is not necessarily submitted; verify the offered facility route before storage or departure.
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.
Secure the ship before handling freight. Rehearse one supported external load and an exit route before choosing a larger delivery.
2 advertised crew. This is an advertised crew reference, not a solo recommendation or passenger-seat count.
Record my RAFT setup and resultsAssign pilot and handler. The handler calls placement and people clear; the pilot verifies load state before moving near anyone.
Find members interested in this shipSearch uses members’ shared ship and activity preferences. It does not promise an available pilot or access to their ship.

At this check, the official matrix description says 192 SCU while its specification table says 224 SCU.
Verify the current cargo grid and supported box sizes in game before accepting a full-capacity shipment. Neither number is a verified loading plan.
