Orbital Utility Craft (OUC)

The Orbital Utility Craft (OUC) is a type of support spacecraft debuted by [Argo Astronautics](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0KnA1vvJEM-argo-astronautics) in SEY 2578. A short-range loading spacecraft, it was built to transfer cargo pallets from orbital transports into ground-based rail networks for rapid deployment. Development of the OUC lead to the design of the [Argo Multi-Purpose Utility Vehicle](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0rqzN9vek9-mpuv-1c-argo-cargo) (MPUV). OUC are no longer operated and have since been replaced by the Argo MPUV and other specialized spacecraft.
