Standard Recovery Vehicle (SRV)

The SRV (Standard Recovery Vehicle) is a tug spacecraft designed by [Argo Astronautics](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0KnA1vvJEM-argo-astronautics). Like Argo's [MPUV](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0rqzN9vek9-mpuv-1c-argo-cargo), the SRV was designed as a dockyard support spacecraft capable of manually towing freight and cargo and conducting search-and-rescue missions. The SRV's tractor system can tow smaller spacecraft or can be combined with other SRVs for larger tasks. Operated by most major [United Empire of Earth](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth)-based freight companies as well as the [UEE Navy](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RPDvKOpdP4-uee-navy), SRVs are a common sight around major ports.
