Maximum cargo capacity for a ship that can land on a medium pad?

Title says it all! This question really has to do with missions.

Thank you

Python is unrivalled in this regard. The next best alternative carries about half of that.

Thank you. I'm seeing a lot of "Boom Missions" that require cargo and they are usually in the 80 to 180 range.

armed you can still make up to 180t

Here's my 264 cargo Trading Python with some mild engineering. Thus a pilot can run one 180 cargo or two 120 cargo missions.

My Python takes 208t and is fully combat capable as well. Perfect for BGS where stations are only outposts.

You can do better than that 200+ with shields enough to fight NPCs and a bit of armor if that floats your boat.

Gahhh. Got caught by a zombie.
