They can be purchased and operated by [[Pilots Federation]]-licensed pilots, who are responsible for commanding and paying the crew. Currently, the only available Fleet Carrier model is the [[Drake-Class Carrier]]. It is made by [[Brewer Corporation]].

Civilian-operated Capital Ships are generally classified as '''[[Megaship]]s'''. There are many subtypes that fill a variety of specific roles. The three main types are [[Bulk Cruiser]]s, which are used for anything from freight transportation to prisoner incarceration, [[Carrier|Flight Operations Carriers]], which feature five Landing Pads, and [[Generation Ship]]s, which are antiquated, pre-[[Hyperdrive]] vessels once used to transport interstellar colonists at sublight speeds.
