The Gatac Syulen hangar is tighter than it looks, but it can carry more ships than most players expect. The catch: fitting is not the same as flying safely.
Some ships land cleanly. Some must float. Some technically fit but are a pain to extract. If you want a working pocket carrier, use the list below.

↖ Gatac Syulen Hangar Rules Before Testing Ships
The Syulen hangar has limited usable gravity zones. That means some ships behave better floating in the center than forced onto a pad.
↖ Core Rules
- Fold wings before entry if the ship supports it.
- Enter at an angle, not straight in.
- Use EVA for floating ships.
- Check the exit path before leaving the cockpit.
- Do not overpack unless you enjoy physics damage.
↖ EVA Access Trick
If your ship is floating inside:
1. Move close to the hangar wall or raised edge.
2. Jump near the wall.
3. Enter EVA state.
4. Float to the cockpit or ramp.
This is mandatory for ships like the Arrow, Pisces, Razor, and some snubs when they are not landed cleanly.

↖ Best Ships to Carry in the Gatac Syulen
↖ Best Overall: Mirai Fury
The Mirai Fury is the cleanest fit.
- Parks well on pads and cargo-grid areas.
- Supports a compact snub-carrier setup.
- Practical load: up to 6 Furies.
- Extra floating Fury is possible, but risky.
Best use: combat snub carrier.
↖ Best Utility Fit: Drake Pitbull
The Drake Pitbull fits extremely well.
- Can sit on cargo grids.
- Can use Fury-style pad space.
- Practical load: up to 6, depending on placement.
Best use: compact utility or support craft storage.
↖ Best Medical Fit: C8R Pisces
The C8R Pisces turns the Syulen into a mobile medical bay.
- Fold wings before entry.
- Leave the ramp accessible.
- EVA access may be needed.
Best use: bunker runs, ground ops, group support.
↖ Best Fighter Fit: Anvil Arrow
The Anvil Arrow is the biggest surprise.
- Retract wings.
- Enter slowly at an angle.
- Store it floating in the center.
- Cockpit access is workable with EVA or nearby footing.
Best use: light fighter transport.
↖ Best Industrial Fit: RSI Salvation
The RSI Salvation fits well and adds real utility.
- Useful for salvage operations.
- Store recovered material on cargo grid.
- More practical than most novelty fits.
Best use: salvage support.
↖ Ships That Fit but Are Risky
These work, but they need patience.
| Ship | Problem | Use Only If |
|---|---|---|
| Drake Golem OX | Wider body, tight exit | You can angle out cleanly |
| Argo MPUV | Landing gear awkward | You are fine with floating it |
| Merlin / Archimedes | Long hull, gravity edge issues | You leave side clearance |
| Aurora | Hard to extract | You are testing, not operating |
The Aurora is the trap. It can go in, but getting it out is ugly. Not recommended for real use.
↖ Ships That Do Not Fit the Gatac Syulen
Do not waste time forcing these.
| Ship | Why It Fails |
|---|---|
| Gladius | Wings too wide |
| Hornet | Too large |
| Mustang Series | Rear wing too wide |
| Buccaneer | Too wide |
| Cutter | Too tall and wide |
| Vanduul Blade | Body too large |
| Wolf 21 / 22 | Too long |
| Origin 100i Series | Too long and wide |
| Hull A / Small Hauler | Too large |
Rule of thumb: if it has fixed wide wings, a long rear section, or a tall body, it probably fails.
↖ Best Gatac Syulen Loadouts
↖ Combat Carrier Loadout
| Slot | Ship | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Pads / grid | 6x Mirai Fury | Snub combat wing |
| Center | Empty | Collision safety |
| Cargo | Ammo / gear | Support |
Best for org play. Keep the center clear if you plan to move the mothership.
↖ Medical Support Loadout
| Slot | Ship / Cargo | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Main bay | C8R Pisces | Healing and rescue |
| Cargo grid | Med supplies | Support |
| Optional | Small snub | Scout craft |
Best for bunkers, ground missions, and long sessions.
↖ Light Fighter Loadout
| Slot | Ship | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Center | Anvil Arrow | Fighter deployment |
| Side area | Supplies | Mission support |
| Access | EVA | Pilot entry |
This is not elegant, but it works.
↖ Salvage Support Loadout
| Slot | Ship / Cargo | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Main bay | RSI Salvation | Salvage work |
| Cargo grid | RMC | Profit storage |
| Optional | Utility snub | Movement support |
Best for players who want the Syulen to do real work.
↖ Practical Parking Tips
↖ Use Floating Storage When Landing Is Bad
Some ships are safer floating than landed.
Best floating candidates:
- Anvil Arrow
- C8R Pisces
- Argo MPUV
- MISC Razor
- Extra Fury
If landing gear clips or gravity pulls the ship weirdly, stop forcing it. Center it and leave it floating.
↖ Always Test the Exit
Before shutting down:
- Nose clear?
- Wings clear?
- Tail clear?
- Can the ship rotate out?
- Can you reach the cockpit again?
If one answer is no, reposition.
↖ Do Not Cram the Bay
Maximum capacity is fun. Practical capacity wins.
| Setup | Risk | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Pisces | Low | Great |
| 1 Arrow floating | Medium | Good |
| 6 Furies | Medium | Strong |
| 6 Furies + floating extra | High | Testing only |
| Mixed tight parking | High | Avoid |
Physics bugs love crowded hangars. Leave space.
↖ Recommended Gatac Syulen Ship Rankings
| Rank | Ship | Why It Ranks Here |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Mirai Fury | Best native-style fit |
| 2 | Drake Pitbull | Excellent compact parking |
| 3 | C8R Pisces | Best utility upgrade |
| 4 | Origin 85X | Easy shuttle fit |
| 5 | Anvil Arrow | Best true fighter fit |
| 6 | RSI Salvation | Strong salvage utility |
| 7 | MISC Razor | Good compact racer fit |
| 8 | Merlin / Archimedes | Reliable snub option |
| 9 | Drake Golem | Works, but angle-sensitive |
| 10 | Argo MPUV | Fits, but awkward landing |
Best practical picks: Fury, Pitbull, Pisces, 85X, Arrow, Salvation.
↖ FAQ
↖ What is the best ship to fit inside the Gatac Syulen?
The Mirai Fury is the best overall fit. It parks cleanly, uses the pad layout well, and supports a practical 6-Fury carrier setup.
↖ Can the Anvil Arrow fit inside the Gatac Syulen?
Yes. The Anvil Arrow fits with wings retracted. Store it floating in the center and use EVA or careful cockpit access.
↖ Can a C8R Pisces fit inside the Gatac Syulen?
Yes. The C8R Pisces fits with wings folded. It is one of the best practical choices because it gives the Syulen medical support capability.
↖ How many Furies can the Gatac Syulen carry?
A practical setup can carry 6 Mirai Furies on pads and cargo-grid areas. An extra floating Fury may fit, but it is not recommended for normal use.
↖ Does the Gladius fit inside the Gatac Syulen?
No. The Anvil Gladius does not fit. Its wings are too wide for the hangar.
↖ Summary
The Gatac Syulen hangar works best with compact snubs and small utility ships.
Best picks:
- Mirai Fury for combat
- Drake Pitbull for compact utility
- C8R Pisces for medical support
- Origin 85X for shuttle duty
- Anvil Arrow for a true fighter option
- RSI Salvation for salvage support
Follow the hard rules: fold wings, enter at an angle, use EVA, check the exit, and do not overpack.
If you want the safest setup, run 6 Furies or 1 Pisces. If you want the best flex, carry an Anvil Arrow floating in the center.
