Biggest freighter (not slots, but actual physical size)
Right now, I have a Resurgent-class freighter, the one with 6 segments.
Now that pirate freighters are availlable, I consider switching, but I'm not sure how big those actually are, compared to the Resurgent.

Does anyone have a 1:1 comparison of those two ship's physical size?

I was going to take a screenshot but for some reason, i cannot get steam overlay to work (to turn back on after disabling it a while ago, due to it causing stuttering at that time)

My current play through, i waited a very long time to "except free freighter" and just kept warping from planet to planet, going through the missions... got lucky to find the biggest Resurgent-class 'A-class' with 42 slots which is the absolute biggest freighter in game with 36 external cargo-pods. However, its gun turret configuration is a bit weird due to it being so flat and wide ... Makes space station look small when it's placed next to one... and if you fly out so that the entire ship is just in frame, even at 100fov the 3 landing portal looks very tiny.

I have parked this freighter next to a Pirate freighter before, it is bigger but not by much.

The 2nd biggest is the Sentinel-class... i think it might be a bit longer?. The biggest one has 50! cargo-pods... it long vertical design, definitely the best turret-guns placement, lots of cross-fire capability if attacked from any direction.

The pirate dreadnoughts are MUCH bigger than the largest venator-type freighter. Notice mine, in the foreground, extends to the rear behind my entire frigate fleet. With other freighters, the frigate fleet extends well past the rear of the freighter.

I think OP has a Resurgent-class, like me... when i parked it over the top of a Pirate ship, it was longer and wider but, the Pirate-ship is alot bulkier.
