The Merrimack is of the old "Enterprise-class Long Hulled" variety and boasts three extra cargoholds capable of carrying over 30,000 tons of material each, to be used at the Commander's whim. As of yet, Commander Kolrami is filling the holds with supplies and manufactured vehicles and machinery to resupply Task Force 72's strategic stores.
