Zamson load-lifter
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Zamson load-lifter is a vehicle carried onboard Imperial starships.[1]
Description
As wide as two Chimeras, the Zamson is used to maintain a starship’s reactor and replace core elements. To ensure optimal reactor functionality, the Zamson finds usage once a century, if the proper rites have been taken care of.[1]
Carrying the spent fuel rods and reactor assemblage as cargo, the Zamson and hundreds of serfs doomed to die of radiation exposure would carry the cargo from the reactor along the reactor extraction culvert, a passage running through the center of a starship, and come back with replacement parts.[1]
