Altor-class replenishment/cargo ship

The Altor-class replenishment/cargo ship was a large cargo ship manufactured by Oranien Systems Heavy Engineering during the days of the Galactic Empire and the First Order.

Dimensions
At 4,600 meters long, and 426 meters tall, the Altor-class was one of the largest freighters and replenishment ships ever built. Most of this height and length was made up by 4 pill-shaped containers that were each 250 meters long, and 50 meters tall, which were carried on the outside of the ship, with 2 on each side.

Cargo Carrying Capacity
Using its large interior size, it could carry a impressive 2,360,000 metric tons of cargo, and using the pill-shaped containers on the exterior, it could carry 1,000,000 liters of most types of liquid, such as water and fuel. This made this ship popular among large shipping companies, and certain smugglers who could get their hands on such a large ship.

Weapons and crew
Since large ships like these were originally designed to replenish military warships, they did not have many weapons, as they only got single turret mounted laser cannons on the dorsal side of the ship. This left them vulnerable from the bottom and sides, where ships could simply go under the field of fire. However it assumed that military grade fighters and warships were nearby, that no pirate was crazy enough to launch a raid on such a ship. However when the Galactic Empire fell and the surviving Altor-class ships were auctioned off to various companies and individuals, this started to become a problem

The crew count when these ships were in service of the Galactic Empire and First Order was 10 enlisted, 2 officers, 2 supply masters, and 2 gunners for the turrets. Various droids would be on board, such as MSE-6 droids, and the Solid Cargo Supply Master's assistant would be a inventory droid. The crew quarters would be located near the front of the ship.

The security units for ships in service of the Empire and the First Order would be a squad of 10 stormtroopers, and 4 deactivated V-series droidekas, which could be activated at any time by the sergeant or the captain.

Early service
The ship was proposed by Oranien Systems Heavy Engineering in 11 BBY do to a request by Imperial Chancellor Yogar Xeran for a large ship that could replenish his navies larger capital ships. It was quickly approved and dozens of these ships were built. These ships were popular as all Imperial crew members knew that when one arrived it meant all of their favorite foods came back to the mess halls. Some of the oldest ships started to be sold off around 3 BBY, and soon many found their ways to into the hands of various shipping companies. By the end of the First Republic-Imperial War over a thousand of these ships had been produced and about 100 of them were in the hands of civilians.

Service in the First Order
The First Order knew its usefulness as a replenishment ship. At this point, tens of thousands of Altor-class ships had made their way into the hands of companies and citizens, but now these ships would serve the First Order, transporting millions of metric tons of dedlanite for new weapons.
