The Type 10 is the first supply tender designed by Ceres Dockyard Corporation GmbH and still the most produced, with only minor changes to the design, as many operators do not need any special systems to supply their vessels in operation.
The Type 10 is capable of carrying over 15 metric ktonnes of cargo, from raw materials, over general consumables and ammunition to water propellant, based on the variant of the Type 10 in question. Some Type 10 Supply Tenders are equipped with extensive fabricator systems and mining systems, making them smaller versions of the much larger GCU class von Neumann machines, allowing smaller scale construction of any material in its data banks, from consumable materials over ammunition to complete spacecraft and stations, given enough time.
