Editing Jump Tender (section)

==Overview==
For any given ship tonnage, a ship which is not burdened with [[jump drive]]s can be better equipped, armed and or armored than a ship which must carry those jump drives. Jump tenders takes advantage of this fact, allowing the [[Commercial Shipping|private sector]] to establish inter system trade routes without the economical burden of equipping jump drives, and offer better [[fleet]] specialization. Fleets operating in deep space, will often relay on dedicated fleet jump tenders.

Tenders carrying capacity is determined by its [[Jump drive]] characteristics. Commercial tenders equipped with commercial jump drive designs, will be able to support larger mass compared to same size military jump drive, while being unable to port military ships.
