–In-game description |
The R-29 "Big Rig" is a Transport class submarine.
Notable Features
The R-29 is a transport ship, meaning it is useful for captains that want to haul cargo from outpost to outpost and increase profits. As a transport ship, it has a gargantuan 60 crate cargo capacity. However, this also means that it has limited defenses, bad maneuvering (the worst of all submarines, in fact) and a lot of hull to defend. Despite its enormity, it can be managed by a moderately-sized crew.
Layout
The R-29 comes equipped with a Flak Cannon, situated at the rear dorsal, covering the rear of the sub as well as the dorsal airlock. Situated at the front dorsal is a Coilgun, covering the front of the sub and the dorsal airlock. It also has a well-placed weapon hardpoint nicely situated near the ventral airlock where another weapon can (and should) be installed. It has two larger-than-normal Electrical Discharge Coils, one of which can be monitored directly from the bridge window. The R-29 has an intuitive and easy layout, and sports a Sonar Monitor next to the Fabricator and Deconstructor. However, it has a sub-optimal medical bay as it lacks a Medical Fabricator.
Wi-Fi Channels
This submarine does not use Wi-Fi.

Trivia
