"They're not many at all, Admiral," he said firmly. "Not many."
That drew silence. A few commanders looked puzzled. Others, like myself, Tyler, Ryn Velos, and Elira, understood exactly what he meant.
"Not many?" Alexand echoed.
"Not when you consider the size of our battle carriers," Evans continued. "If you think this is all they can hold, that would be… disappointing."
He stepped forward, clearly irritated that the scale of the carriers was being underestimated.

Ten percent of that is locked for future upgrades. That leaves 50% of total internal volume available for current deployment."
