==Summary==
==Summary==
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. Most importantly, the corporate cargo bay in the orca cannot be scanned by players and does not drop its contents on destruction, making it a secure way of transporting high value items around high sec.

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. 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 Retribution all the cargo bays of the Orca can be scanned and drop contents just like the normal cargo bay, so this advantage is gone.
