While all Deep Space Transports (DSTs) are designed to be flying tanks, the Impel is arguably the toughest of them all. Seven low slots and a generous Power Grid allow an unrivaled armour tank to be fitted, alongside the standard Cloak and MWD. With all your low slots taken up by tank however, speed and agility are relatively poor, and without compromising your tank you lack the flexibility to add warp stabilizers for extra protection from tackle. If you miss the [[Cloak Trick|Cloak/MWD trick]] you may therefore be relatively easy to catch by a gate camp, however catching you and killing you are two very different matters in an Impel, at least in Empire space.

As with all DSTs, the Fleet Hanger can hold any item (not only ships) and is therefore the main cargo hold when hauling. It can only be expanded by training the {{sk|Transport Ships}} skill (to a maximum of 62,500m3 at Level 5). As Cargo Expanders only affect the tiny main cargo hold which is rarely used they are of little use when fitting a DST.
