Why Vesta Smelting Combine chose the Atlas Heavy Freighter

When Vesta Smelting Combine wanted more capacity for its Luna business, it compared ships from every major yard. In the end it ordered 6 Atlas Heavy Freighter hulls from Halcyon Stellar Works.

Founded in 2149 and headquartered at Vesta, Vesta Smelting Combine needed a Bulk freighter that a small flight crew of 3 could run safely over long rotations.

The company's fleet planners cited low operating costs and fast turnaround at Halcyon yards as the deciding factors.

The first ships are already in service, with the rest of the order arriving over the coming quarter.
