Summary
The Mastodon is usually shield tanked with its five mid slots, which provides slightly lower raw EHP on a buffer tank than its Armor tanked peers, and also notably less than the shield-tanked Bustard with it's six mid-slots, giving the Mastodon arguably the lightest potential tank of the Deep Space Transport (DST) family. However "light" is still relative in this company, and the Mastodon can still easily hit battleship levels of tank. In addition, the high base navigation stats, combined with four low slots which can be used for a number of speed and agility modules, mean that the Mastodon is generally the fastest and most agile of the DSTs.
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 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.
