Seeing a greater need for a quick way to transport large amounts of materials from one place to another, the corporations of Sirius quickly looked to refine the functional design of the average transport. The result of the refining was the [[Large Transport]]. Boasting a greater cargo hold than it's predecessor, the Albatross is mainly used by the corporations of [[Sirius]] where lots of goods need to be moved quickly. Much like it's predecessor, the vessel sacrifices flash for functionality.

The CT-39X may seem like the Gull's big brother but you’ll be surprised as to how many things haven't changed from the smaller model. Features such as customizable cargo pods, included [[Class 7 Turrets|Type 4 Transport Turrets]] and a hefty shield outlet are all copied and pasted onto the Albatross. But some disadvantageous features also come along, put aside it's increased size and cargo hold, the firepower of this boat hasn't changed a bit. Only five turret mounts stretched over the chassis really wastes the improved power plant capacity. The price also raises a few eyebrows amongst buyers since ships such as the [[Mammoth]]; with a larger cargo hold; are sold for less than 11.2 million.

Almost no difference in maneuverability from the gull makes it a decent ship for a person who's used to those tight turns and maneuvers. The space that seemed to disappear behind the Gull is now revealed with the Albatross, an extended camera view allows you to see a large portion of the surrounding area. But sadly a factor is removed from it's capability to escape pirates as its increased size just makes it a larger target. The standard windscreen is installed into the cockpit view making it an exceptional and ideal view to pilot from.

Seeing a greater need for a quick way to transport large amounts of materials from one place to another, the corporations of Sirius quickly looked to refine the functional design of the average transport. The result of the refining was the Large Transport. Boasting a greater cargo hold than it's predecessor, the Albatross is mainly used by the corporations of Sirius where lots of goods need to be moved quickly. Much like it's predecessor, the vessel sacrifices flash for functionality.
