Cecil Rhodes-class Colony Ship, Private Consumer Model
While (Awesome O'saurus's) UNEN Kettler was one of the many government sanctioned colony ships, the engineering companies tasked with the charge of designing these vessels also produced a non-naval variant for private consumer use. The main differences include the additional habitation modules in place of the missile pods as well as a significant repaint, though paint color and patterns are often chosen by the consumer prior to purchase.
Since most individuals would be monetarily incapable of owning such a large vessel, relatively speaking, purchases are often made by commercial colony settling companies who typically have their own logo or color scheme that they would prefer to be branded upon each of the colony ships that they invest in. For this reason, civilian consumer editions of the Cecil Rhodes Class are often made to order.
