Large Cargo
The Large Cargo is the primary mass transport ship. With 25,000 cargo capacity — five times the Small Cargo — it is the standard choice for resource hauling, farming, and trading from mid-game onward.

Tips
Large Cargos become your primary haulers as soon as you unlock them. One LC carries the same as 5 Small Cargos at lower fuel cost per unit of cargo.
Send a fleet of 10–100 LCs with combat escort to strip inactive players. With high Combustion Drive, they're fast enough for cross-system raids.
Like the Small Cargo, Large Cargos have minimal weapons. Never send them unescorted into defended territory.
Use LCs to centralise resources from colonies to your main planet for large construction projects or fleet builds.
