Type-9 pilot in a hangar

A Hangar stores and displays ships and vehicles. Some services are only available inside a hangar.

Access

The hangar can be entered after a ship successfully docked. The commander connects with a service-link element of the station or settlement which shows the option "Enter Hangar". By selecting this option, the docking platform lowers to transfer the ship inside the hangar. To exit the hangar simply select "Launch". The station grants permission to exit and undock. The docking clamps are disabled and the ship is released. Large settlements have hangars for SRVs.

Hangar types

Station and port hangars

The hangar type of a Station or Surface Port depends on the star system's celestial body types, economy (market links with nearby orbital or planetary structures), and population. These can be determined by an Architect via system colonisation. These hangars are accessible on foot.

Ship hangars

Ships can be equipped with 3 different hangars: Vessel Hangar, Planetary Vehicle Hangar or the Mk II Large Planetary Vehicle Hangar. These are inaccessible on foot.

Type Location Example Images
Vessel Hangar Small, medium and large ships Same for every ship
Planetary Vehicle Hangar Small, medium and large ships Same for every ship
Mk II Large Planetary Vehicle Hangar Medium and large ships Same for every ship

Services

Some services are only available while your ship is inside a hangar. You can disembark inside the hangar to walk around to inspect the ship or towards to Express Lift which lead to the Concourse. The station, carrier or settlement will have specific services such as Universal Cartographics, Shipyard, Commodities Market, Mission Board, Contacts, Crew Lounge, local news and ship services.

Hangar modules

Ships can be outfitted with a Planetary Vehicle Hangar for a Surface Recon Vehicle. There are multiple hangar sizes. Larger ones increase the number of vehicle bays. A Fighter Hangar is purchasable via Outfitting. It can construct and maintain Ship-Launched Fighters. These fighters can be launched via the role switch panel in the cockpit interface.
