'''ARJ''' is the IATA container code designation for a standardized high-volume rectangular cargo unit measuring approximately 16x8x8 feet. In the ''Rise'' universe, ARJ containers are used extensively for cargo, passenger transport, fuel, munitions, and autonomous construction operations.
'''PODS''' is an ackronym for '''Portable On Demand Storage''' and represents not only the company founded in 1998 on Earth but more importantly is synonymous with the branded containers exclusively used throughout the ''Rise'' universe.

ARJ is the IATA container code designation for a standardized high-volume rectangular cargo unit measuring approximately 16x8x8 feet. In the Rise universe, ARJ containers are used extensively for cargo, passenger transport, fuel, munitions, and autonomous construction operations.

The ARJ-Class Container

ARJ Container

There are 394 ARJ containers in use throughout the Yonmaran System as of December 1, 2232.

These containers are certified under the IATA ULD system as an ARJ configuration:

A – Certified aircraft-compatible container

R – Base dimensions of 96 inches × 196 inches

J – Rectangular, high-volume configuration

ARJ containers feature a steel frame construction with a weather-resistant, marine-grade interior. An engineer certified the sturdy design can withstand wind velocities of up to 177 kph while partially full.

Approximate Measurements
Length 4.8768 meters
Width 2.4384 meters
Height 2.4384 meters
Interior Nominal (not taking interior beams into consideration)
Area 10.96255872 meters2
Volume 26.75942002944 meters3
Interior Clear (taking interior beams into consideration)
Area 9.94062528 meters2
Volume 22.851695199744 meters3
Door Opening
Width 2.032 meters2
Height 1.9304 meters2
Empty Weight 0.90718474 MT
Unit Load (PSF) 35.5 kg

The floor of the container is a tenth of a meter off the ground. It is equipped with a roll-up door at one end. The roof/ceiling is made from a translucent plastic to allow natural light to enter the container from above.

How to Use them in RISE

What kind of ARJs are there?

There are five (5) primary types of ARJs:

Where can I buy ARJs?

ARJs can be bought at CPOC but CPOC will only sell them if it has foodstuffs, refined fuel, and fabricated material (all commodities) to build them.

Prices as follows: Aux Fuel 5241 CR. Cargo 1654 CR. Construction 6339 CR. Passenger 7338 CR. Munitions ???? CR.

If you wonder now how do obtain a ARJ when you only have a ground vehicle, my advice is snatch one of the ARJs that lies around Deois. It is polite to ask the owner or inform him the next time you see him/her online. The least you can do is to return it to the place you took it from!

You can also keep your eye out for ARJs that are flagged for repossession, open for salvage title, or available for auction at VBay.

How can I find ARJs?

To be able to see ARJs in your contact list. Their IVR starts with 0 (ie. 00259)

What kind of information do you get when you scan an ARJ

Typically you will see

  • IVR 00
  • Type (Passenger, Cargo, Fuel, Construction)
  • Registered to (Owner)
  • Menu options Shift F to transfer fuel it it Shift C to transfer cash
  • Weight
  • Destination

What kind of vehicles can load ARJs and how many in each?

  • T-120 Steerhead - 1 Bay
  • T-19 Stratomaster - 1 Bay
  • A-4 Wanderer - 1 Bay
  • W-6 Manx - 3 Bays
  • E-10 Saint - 6 Bays
  • E-11 Saint - 6 Bays

How do I load a ARJs?

Press the "TAB" key to change the selected contact to an ARJ in the contacts list. Scan it by hitting "Shift+S" and it will pull up your scanner on the MFD. Maneuver within 250 meters of the ARJ. When there hit Shift+L to load it into/onto your vehicle. Note: it will load the ARJ in to the first available cargo bay!

How do I fill/empty an ARJ?

  • Store menus will handle buying/selling commodities to/from cargo ARJs
  • Passenger menus (curbside, terminal, dock) will handle enplane/deplane passengers to/from passenger ARJs
  • Refined Fuel can be transferred between an Auxiliary Fuel ARJ and a vehicle
  • Longarm ordinance can be transferred between a Munitions ARJ and a Longarm Launcher
    • The Cargo bay doors (unless on a flat bed like T-120) must be opened first
    • Select ARJ in Cargo Manifest for unload, contact list to load.
    • Shift L to load shift U to unload
    • Keep in mind positive and negative values

How do I unload an ARJ?

Select it in your Cargo Manifest and hit Shift+U to unload it. The ARJ will appear near your position.
