Not every Vic Viper was a sleek starfighter. The design proved to be highly adaptable and was used for a wide variety of spacecraft. One of the more unusual examples is shown in this archive photo, working at Blwch Mawr Container Port.
These little VVs buzzed around the port like busy bees. They were mainly used for lifting containers off the storage racks and onto lorries. The lorries were highly manoeuvrable, having spheres instead of discs for wheels. This allowed them to roll sideways as well as forwards and backwards and turning.
I never realized the complete massiveness of this kind of vessel until I was in a relatively small boat, in the water, near one.
Each one of those rectangular containers is the size of a semi truck.

I built the Mercedes Actros, in the livery of Dutch heavy haulage and crane company "Mammoet" to carry a wheel loader on its stepframe trailer, but I've seen plenty of pictures of similar vehicles carrying 20ft containers. The trucks are used to haul equipment to building sites, with smaller stuff stored in containers. My DAF XF105 carries a 40ft refrigerated container in this picture.
