# Industrial Carriers *Kharos Ship Catalog, Rebuilt Hulls of the Funtari Confederacy for Void Drifters. Source: https://exodusnds.com/sourcebooks/kharos/industrial-carriers* The largest hull Kharos sells is a work yard that flies. A clan, a mercenary company or a mining syndicate holds the title; the crew works for whoever holds the paper. ##### KR-61 Carrier *Printed as the Industrial Carrier in the Vehicles Manual. Industrial Scaffold. Scale 6. Civilian grade. 4 marks, Mk I to Mk IV.* The KR-61 is a carrier, a moving work yard: two open gantries with a crane on each, a shuttle bay, cradles for work pods and four engine nozzles aft. Its Shuttle Bay also carries the Hammer torpedo bomber (Vehicles Manual, Chapter Seventeen), which is built to a different grade and is not reprinted here.
