An ammunition ship was a type of auxiliary ship used by navies in the Post Diaspora era.
Specially configured to haul ammunition such as missiles and missile pods to resupply deployed fleets, ammunition ships could operate as part of a fleet train or as stationary depot ships in orbit of friendly planets.
HMS Volcano and HMS Holocaust were both ammunition ships assigned to the Talbott Cluster to support Task Force Talbott before the creation of the Talbott Quadrant and establishment of Talbott Station. (SI1)
