Based in many ways upon the design philosophy employed by the GMG Kujira class transport, the ZBT is effectively a hardened radiation shell providing support for her massive engines to ferry her spacious cargo with unmatched agility. Forgoing traditional arms and armament, the Zoners rely instead upon their studiously cultivated diplomatic ties to assure the safety of the vessel.

Sales of the ZBT are explicitly prohibited to non-Zoners and those vessels encountered flown under any other flag are assumed to have been acquired by nefarious means, and their destruction rewarded appropriately. The technology of its internal frame is held under strict secrecy and the ship's engine power that ensures it almost unmatched agility is also jealously guarded.

May only be used with a Zoner ID.

Handling

• This ship is too large to use docking bays, it must use mooring points.

Outdated Review (4.86)

Review (4.86) The ZBT-100Z2 "Whale" Transport is quite simply a magnificent ship. It has a sleek profile capable of going through asteroid fields with ease, its 5000 unit cargo space is excellent for hauling goods, and for its cargo size, it's fairly agile and inexpensive compared to other ships of similar capacity. There are two somewhat major disadvantages, however. First of all, it has no weapons. This problem can be negated, however, by balancing your reputation so that you are neutral with most factions. The second problem is that this ship requires you to have a Zoner ID which does not allow you to dock in House Space. This ship is my primary ship, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good trade ship. Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by Joseph Abusaid
