- You may also be looking for the larger Malon export vessel.
A Malon export vessel, eleventh gradient was a freighter-type vessel operated by the waste export industry of the Malon. They operated with a crew of nine.
The waste export vessel was designed for long range transport and dumping of theta radioactive antimatter waste and other mixed industrial byproducts produced by the Malon civilization.
This gradient of vessel possessed three theta storage tanks, capable of carrying over 90 million isotons of contaminated waste. They were armed with spatial charge launchers, and equipped with a tractor beam. (VOY: "Night", "Extreme Risk")
