{{quote|The Type 9 Heavy is Lakon Spaceways large freighter class. This ship is built to transport large cargos, a job it does very well, but it doesn't stand up well in a fight.|In-Game Description}}<br />
<br />
The '''Lakon Type-9 Heavy''' is a heavy freighter featured in Elite: Dangerous. Currently it has the largest capacity cargo hold of any ship available making it the ideal trading and hauling vessel. As a result of this it suffers from poor maneuverability and can have difficulty in shaking smaller ships from its blind spot. Although with five weapon hardpoints the Lakon Type-9 Heavy is not without defenses and can equip heavy armament.<br />
<br />
It first appeared in the development diary videos and in some of the live streams done by Frontier. Later it appeared in the early Alpha stages and is one of the four ships that was in the first release of the Premium Beta.<br />
<br />
The ship itself is often seen as a freighter, although it can be a potent threat if equipped with the right weapons. It can, with good aim and piloting take down a Sidewinder in one pass. Yet, the role of this ship is most likely going to be a trader as it is incredibly slow and lumbering. Also note that it has problems fitting through the narrow gates of the Coriolis space stations and can therefore be very expensive to fly if the pilot is not sufficiently skilled.<br />
