While designed as a powerful fleet booster for mining operations, the Orca also gets much use as a general freighter. It has a ship bay that can carry small and medium sized ships without needing to be repackaged (which would lose rigs and insurance) and a good amount of general cargo space.<ref>In older material you may see references to the Orca's secondary cargo areas as being "unscannable".  Prior to the Retribution expansion, the corporate hangar (now called the "Fleet Hangar") in the Orca could not be scanned by players and did not drop its contents on destruction, making it a secure way of transporting high value items around high sec.  As of the Retribution expansion, all the cargo bays of the Orca can be scanned '''and''' drop contents just like the normal cargo bay, so this advantage is gone.</ref>
