Roberts Space Industries has unveiled the RSI Hermes, a purpose-built medium freighter designed to redefine cargo hauling for small crews in Star Citizen. Built for capacity, speed, and endurance, the Hermes brings meaningful advancements to medium-class freight operations.
🚚 Built to Deliver
The Hermes stands out with 288 SCU of internal cargo space, giving pilots substantial haulage ability without needing a large crew. Thanks to its rail-mounted Size 2 tractor beam, loading and unloading cargo becomes far more efficient—whether you’re running bulk shipments or opportunistic runs.
⚙️ Designed for Solo or Small Teams
Unlike larger haulers that require bigger crews, the Hermes strikes a balance between capacity and accessibility. It’s optimized for solo pilots or two-person teams, offering a cockpit and basic living amenities while keeping hauling performance competitive.
💪 Endurance and Defense
To protect its valuable cargo, the Hermes doesn’t skimp on defensive capabilities. It comes equipped with improved armor compared to its Apollo lineage and mounts an array of weapons—including four Size 4 guns and sixteen Size 2 missiles—so you can fight your way out of trouble if needed.
🧑 Crew Comfort
Pilots spending long hauls inside their ship will appreciate the Hermes’ habitation area, complete with beds, a kitchenette, and essential facilities—making extended journeys across Stanton and beyond more comfortable for you and your partner.
🚀 A New Era in Medium Freight
The RSI Hermes joins a growing roster of dedicated haulers in Star Citizen, but its combination of cargo space, defensive strength, and accessibility makes it a standout choice for traders, transporters, and opportunistic explorers alike. Whether you’re running regular supply missions or high-stakes delivery contracts, the Hermes delivers the goods.
Cargo secure, engines hot, and rails lit — that’s the Hermes way.
