- Description:

The First Fleet Freighter Corps is a subdivision of the Liberty Navy's First Fleet that is comprised solely of freighters, currently the DL-Hai "Grizzly" Liberty Shuttle only. This shuttle, though originally brought into being by the Liberty Police Incorporated, has found use in ferrying smaller loads of marines and commodities that are too small for the Logistics Corps to handle.

The Freighter Corps is often charged with the secure delivery of precious cargo from one place to another, sometimes through hostile territory. So far, the Freighter Corps has maintained a high success rate due to the armour, longevity and agility provided by the Grizzly. Captains of these freighters also tend to be demolitions experts, allowing them to quickly hole a seemingly impenetrable bulkhead. This is useful in a variety of roles, not least of which is the boarding of a hostile ship or station.

The main reason that the Freighter Corps and the Logistics Corps have not merged, however, is that the Grizzly is an escort ship unto itself. Freighter Corps ships can by found escorting mammoths belonging to logistics if no fighter escorts are available, and have more than once ensured the safety of said mammoths against enterprising pirate captains. These freighters have also been seen tangling with enemy gunboats, with which they have had surprising success, indicating a level of underestimation by hostile pilots.

Unsurprisingly, the Freighter Corps is, compared to the Logistics Corps, very small. The Liberty Navy requires many goods in bulk, so the services rendered by the Freighter Corps are highly specialized. They are never-the-less an important cog in the war-machine that is the Liberty Navy, and play their part admirably.
