Freighters are the ultimate cargo carrying ships, with vast cargo holds. Tech 1 freighters can sometimes be spotted on New Eden's major highsec trade routes, while the Tech 2 jump freighters are used to transport cargo out to nullsec. All freighters have no high, mid, low or rig slots, so a freighter pilot's only way of enhancing their ship's performance is via [[Implants#Skill Hardwirings|hardwiring implants]].

Freighters are subject to certain restrictions: ~~they cannot jettison cargo into a can in space, and the only wrecks they can loot are the wrecks of other freighters.~~ Assembled containers and assembled secure containers cannot be put in a freighter's cargo hold, so that pilots can't use containers to increase freighters' cargo capacity in the same way that they're used to increase the capacity of [[Industrial|industrials]].

Freighters are subject to certain restrictions: Assembled containers and assembled secure containers cannot be put in a freighter's cargo hold, so that pilots can't use containers to increase freighters' cargo capacity in the same way that they're used to increase the capacity of [[Industrial|industrials]]. The Retribution patch removed the previously existing restriction on jetcans.

Use Freighters for huge cargo through high sec and very short distances into low sec. These require proper support (someone to web for faster aligns, scouts, preferably some EW).  Remember that the Uni [[Freighter Production|provides at-cost freighters]] to Uni members.
