-[[Deep Trader|Deep]] or [[Fast Trader]]s have larger J-3 or faster [[jump engine]]s and are specialized to hit hard to reach markets.
-: [[Deep Trader]]s typically serve the following roles:
-* Emergency Transport
-* Merchant
-* Tramp Liner
-== Description (Specifications) ==
-Deep Trader is another, rarer, variant of a [[free trader]]. Built for areas of low [[stellar density]], deep traders are jump-3 capable. The [[Craft Type Code]] assigned to this class is A3. Since these [[ship]]s are generally custom-built or produced in low quantities, no standard example exists.
-== History & Background ([[Dossier]]) ==
-''Basic Supraclass Definition:'' ''THE FAR TRADER:'' The basic ship involved in free trade is called the [[free trader]]. Variations on the basic ship have resulted in variations in the name.
-The [[subsidized merchant]], partly because of its size, and partly because of its subsidy, is called the [[fat trader]].
-Some well-equipped high-G traders employed beyond the [[Imperial Fringe|Imperial border]] are called [[fast trader]]s. The [[type A2 far trader]] derives its name from its jump capability: its drives are capable of Jump-2, twice what the standard [[free trader]] can do. The [[far trader]] can be encountered anywhere in the Imperium. It ranges far and wide, and deals with every [[world]] it finds. Even [[amber zone]]s and [[red zone]]s are not considered off limits by its captains, provided there is profit to be made and the risk of being caught is slight. {{Ludography ref|name= Traders and Gunboats |page= 23 |version= Classic Traveller}}
-[[Fast Trader]]s or [[Deep Trader]]s are typically optimized for J-3 to J-4 [[FTL]] travel. [[Clipper]]s and many kinds of [[Jumpliner]]s are also optimized for high FTL trade and profit keeping.
