Utility Landing Bays

Expand your ship beyond the conventional landing bay.

Utility Landing Bays introduces five new purpose-built landing bay modules, each designed around the engineering philosophy, visual identity, and intended role of its respective manufacturer.

This Creation is load-order neutral and utilizes vanilla Starfield keywords and Ship Builder categories, requiring no external ship-building framework or category dependency. Each bay can be found through its respective manufacturer-specific ship vendor within the standard Bays category.

From compact military deployment systems and rugged freight lifts to exploration access pods and refined shipboard garages, each bay provides a distinct new approach to entering and exiting your vessel.

Several modules feature interactive holographic activators, allowing their access systems to be deployed and retracted directly from the exterior of your ship.

Deimos 230 GR Mid-Sectional Lift Bay

Built for Deimos and UC SysDef vessels, the 230 GR is a compact mid-sectional lift bay engineered for rapid deployment and efficient access. Its narrow profile makes it ideal for military ships where space is at a premium and getting boots on the ground quickly matters.

A dedicated holographic activator provides immediate control of the lift, keeping physical controls out of the way and maintaining the bay's compact military profile.

HopeTech Freight Bay Lift

A rugged industrial lift built around cargo handling and heavy-duty operation. High-tensile actuators and reinforced pneumatic systems keep the platform stable under load, while increased ground clearance helps prevent the lift assembly from unintentionally shoveling terrain during deployment.

A large holographic activator controls lift operation from ground level, providing straightforward access even when working around cargo.

Nothing fancy; just dependable HopeTech engineering built to work.

Nova Galactic U-20 Access Pod

Designed with exploration and field operations in mind, the U-20 provides straightforward ship access without demanding the footprint of a conventional landing bay.

Compact enough for smaller craft and remote landing sites, its design follows the classic Nova Galactic philosophy: minimal, practical, and functional.

A simple holographic activator deploys the access system when needed, disappearing back into the U-20's otherwise clean exterior when not in use.

Stroud Foundation MAX Bay

The shipboard garage, refined by Stroud-Eklund.

The Foundation MAX provides a spacious access bay with integrated landing gear engineered to supplement the module's additional mass.

Whether supporting an expedition vessel, luxury craft, or everyday workhorse, the Foundation MAX provides a substantial entrance without sacrificing Stroud's signature refinement.
