And I’d also say that it makes sort of sense that the T3’s have less space as they are made to be modular and not space efficient, that aside its pretty well balanced, thou i’d like to see a dedicated ammo hold on them and be able to fit 3 or 4 subsystems in the sub bay.. But yea size/weight does not equal cargo space. And its meters cubed, not squared. 450 Cubic meters is about equals to 1 fifth of the olympic swimingpool. That’s a lot for a loki, a ship designed for modularity and versatility.
A bit like asking why a dragster (dragracing car) or F1 isn’t hauling cargo with a semi after it, it has more Horsepowers than a semitruck afterall.. Different design specs my man.
