{{Review|[[User:dv8advocate|balta]]| Being on a tight budget and looking for a new middle range transport, this ship was indeed what I was looking for in a 12 million budget: a generous cargo space of 2600, great hull and power output, plus the possibility to use a very large shield ([[Adv. Transport Positron Shield]]). Percheron controls nicely, has no issues with docking and has a pleasant design. Engines are located below the ship somewhere in the front-middle section, so expect to be disrupted quite a bit. It only has 5 turets, all of them are front firing, only 2-3 protect on laterals and below the ship, but mount 5x [[Transport Turret Type 4]] and you can survive quite nicely against NPC pirates around Sirus. After flying it around for quite some time now, I can say I am quite happy with its commercial performance.}}
