Using this reference

Begin a comparison of Type-8 Transporter with the hull fields and the slots or hardpoints actually recorded. A hull is the starting point of a fitting, not the finished ship. Comparing a base value from one entry with a modified value from another can give a misleading result.

Pick the intended job before comparing alternatives. Check capacity, layout and listed requirements separately rather than reducing them to a single score. The reference does not assemble modules or simulate a complete travel or combat fit.

One useful comparison

For Base price / credits, Type-8 Transporter is listed at 38453970, compared with 37472252 for Krait Phantom: a difference of 981718. This compares that field in the recorded variants only. Read the other fields before deciding whether the trade-off matters to your use.
