The Hercules is a heavy duty carrier used for both bulk cargo and containerized shipments. The ship is in service primarily in the Aramis subsector, but several examples are also in service with Tukera. Because its jump1 drives makes travel over longer distances difficult, Akerut maintains a supply of 10125kl demountable fuel tanks at its starport locations within the Aramis subsector. Ships in the Hercules class carry names suggesting immense size or strength, such as Mammoth, Gigant, Titan, Brobdingnag, and Sampson.
