A medium tanker with enough fuel capacity to support a larger fleet. Tanker duty is often considered punitive - there's little opportunity for distinction, and less chance of survival should direct contact with the enemy occur.

–In-Game Description

Overview[]

The Phaeton is a destroyer class tanker ship. Out of the game's three tankers, it has the second highest fuel capacity, 800 units. A Phaeton or two are usually enough to keep a medium-to-large size fleet fueled for short or medium range trips, but the Prometheus is the tanker of choice for long-range journeys. Antithetically, the Dram is more suited to small fleets.
