Freighters are designed to fight while on autopilot, with the player shooting at the attackers in turret mode. Freighters are the least manuverable class of ships in the game, but they carry the most cargo. In multi-player play, the three VHFs capable of carrying level 10 weapons (Eagle, Titan and Sabre) are considered the "end-level" ships and most players strive to acquire one, though many players prefer a well-armed Light Fighter like the Drake as it can easily outmaneuver these VHFs, while others remain content to run trade routes using a Freighter.įreighters are classed as such due to their size, cargo capicity as well as their abnormal number of turret mounts. When flown by NPCs, these fighters are normally found deep in the Border Worlds, near the home systems of the major BW factions (Corsairs, Outcasts, Zoners, and Bounty Hunters).

A light fighter also typically comes with higher agility and lower price when compared with a heavy fighter of its class.
