Atlas-Class 100,000-Ton TL15 J4 Merchant Tender

A Mongoose 2e design. The Atlas-Class Merchant Tender falls in between the larger Hercules-Class Merchant Tender and the smaller Riftliner-Class Merchant Tender. This J4 version is designed to haul a mixture of 20 Type V 5,000-Ton cargo, fuel, low berth, and passenger pods (100,000 tons total).

The Atlas line was designed with quick turnover in mind. Each stop should only run 72 hours, at most, if the system crew is on the ball. If they aren't, heads will surly roll as the schedule for these ships is everything.

As the crew will be worked hard, even with robots doing most of the work, they are treated very well, with individual staterooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a hot tub big enough for everyone. A robotic steward sees to their needs and keeps morale high.
