  info: 'Developer: Kaalakiota<br><br>Blockade runner transports are the fastest type
    of industrial available.  Utilizing sturdy but lightweight construction materials
    and sacrificing some cargo space, these haulers are able to reach speeds greater
    than those of a cruiser while withstanding heavy fire - factors which make them
    ideal for zipping through dangerous territories with valuable cargo.'

## Summary

</div>
Very useful for hauling high-value items (such as implants or blueprints) into dangerous space, blockade runners are effectively industrial covops ships; difficult to catch except by warp bubbles. For this added speed and security they sacrifice durability and cargo space.
