Heavy lift, refined
The C2 Hercules combines a vast drive-through hold with Crusader's clean aerospace design, giving two operators an elegant way to move bulk freight, racing teams, and the largest ground vehicles.

Meet the C2 Hercules
The C2 makes heavy transport feel straightforward. A vast drive-through deck accepts bulk freight and oversized vehicles, while a separate upper crew level and compact flight crew keep a very large payload from demanding an equally large ship organization.
Built in an evolving universe
The C2 Hercules is flight ready and entered the live game in Alpha 3.13.1. Because Star Citizen remains in active development, specifications, features, and imagery may change over time.
Mission systems
A simpler way to move heavy cargo
The C2 combines capacity, clear access, crew comfort, and credible defense so the difficult part of a heavy-lift contract remains the payload, not the ship around it.
01
696 SCU hold
A broad internal cargo grid accommodates major freight contracts as well as large vehicles such as the Nova, Ballista, and Spartan.
02
Drive-through loading
Large ramps at both ends streamline vehicle movement and reduce the maneuvering needed in crowded loading areas.
03
Crew interior
Beds, personal storage, facilities, and a separate rest area make the C2 comfortable enough for long commercial routes.
04
Defensive firepower
Pilot-controlled Size 5 hardpoints and a rear remote turret let the C2 answer threats without compromising its civilian mission.
05
Military-derived spaceframe
The civilian C2 retains the structural scale and confidence of the Hercules family while prioritizing commercial carrying volume.
06
Compact crew operation
One or two flight crew can move an outsized load, leaving drivers and cargo handlers to join only when the mission requires them.
Drive-through heavy lift
Why the C2 Hercules works
The C2 has one long cargo floor between two large ramps. Vehicles can drive straight through, freight can be arranged in delivery order, and the crew can unload from whichever end works best.

It works for crews that value direct loading and the ability to carry equipment too large for ordinary freight decks.
The ship can fly with few people, but loading and unloading are faster when drivers and cargo handlers are ready at both ends of the route.
The C2's capacity is only useful when the destination offers enough room to land, open the ramps, and move the payload safely.
Heavy transport
One continuous route from loading ramp to destination
The C2 earns its reputation through a simple idea executed at large scale: open the front and rear of the ship, organize the hold around the delivery order, fly the payload where it is needed, and drive it straight back out.
Plan
Sequence the payload
Vehicles and freight are arranged around weight, access, and unloading order before the ramps close.
Load
Use the drive-through floor
The long cargo deck accepts large vehicles without forcing them through lifts or narrow side access.
Transit
Keep crew above the cargo floor
Flight and living spaces remain on the upper deck, away from vehicles and cargo moving through the hold.
Deliver
Open both ends of the route
At the destination, ground assets can leave through the most practical ramp instead of reversing the entire loading process.
Heavy-lift interior
One clear route through the ship
The C2's defining feature is not only capacity but access: an uninterrupted vehicle and freight deck connects the forward and rear ramps beneath a separate crew level.
Main deckA true drive-through hold
The broad cargo floor carries large ground vehicles and major freight loads without forcing them through a side door or lift.
Lower deckFreight stays below the crew
The lower-deck plan shows the long loading route and the working space available between both ramps.
Upper deckCrew spaces stay separate
The upper-deck plan places habitation and flight operations away from the traffic moving through the cargo bay.
Oversized payloadMove more than containers
The Hercules is shaped to carry large vehicles and specialized equipment as naturally as conventional freight.
Crew and logistics
Who the C2 Hercules is for
Crew roles, workload, and support needs shape how this civilian heavy lifter performs after departure.
Heavy lift operations
Best fit Crew roles Plan around
A compact flight crew can move an oversized mission
The C2 keeps ship operation approachable, but the payload may bring its own drivers, cargo handlers, and ground team. The total mission is larger than the cockpit roster.
Vehicle movers and bulk haulers
It works for crews that value direct loading and the ability to carry equipment too large for ordinary freight decks.
Flight crew plus load team
The ship can fly with few people, but loading and unloading are faster when drivers and cargo handlers are ready at both ends of the route.
Runway and ramp access
The C2's capacity is only useful when the destination offers enough room to land, open the ramps, and move the payload safely.
