The 400tn Bulk Transport is a slow 1G system transport. It's use is for the transportation of goods from one planet to another in a system, loading and unloading of large starships which are in orbit, and general transportation of local freight or cargo in system.
The Bulk Transport is purchased and operated by local systems, and must be transported to the system for use. The value of these bulk transports becomes apparent once resources have been located on an adjacent planet or moon. Trade and Commerce is up to the system and transport Captain.
Of course smuggling contraband items is illegal, but several transport captains have secretly modified their holds with hidden panels, raised flooring for sub decks, false walls, with small living spaces, lowered ceilings, etc. Many pay off authorities, and boarding parties are rare.
