That seems to be the case,Just to be clear, one transport moved one SDB. Am I understanding that right?
From Traders and Gunboast:
Alone, the 200-ton jump shuttle can achieve 3-G and jump-2 and carries fuel tankage for three consecutive jumps. It carries a crew of three. When
connected to the system defense boat, it's powerful jump drives are reduced in capacity, but can still propel the combination to jump-I and 1-G maneuvers. Its fuel capacity remains enough for two consecutive jumps. The jump shuttle costs MCr93.52 and displaces 200 tons.
800dtの民間標準コンテナ船は、200dtの標準コンテナラック2個または400dtのSDB1個を輸送することができます。

: An 800dt civilian standard container ship can transport two 200dt standard container racks or one 400dt SDB.Using MegaTraveller fuel rules
Jump 6 with 50dt cargo
Jump 5 with 133dt cargo
Jump 4 with 240dt cargo
Jump 3 with 400dt cargo
Jump 2 with 667dt cargo
Jump 1 with 1,200dt cargo
Using CT related jump fuel rules
Jump 6 not possible
Jump 5 with 80dt cargo
Jump 4 with 200dt cargo
Jump 3 with 400dt cargo
Jump 2 with 667dt cargo
Jump 1 with 2,000dt cargo
The 800dt private standard container ships which is able to transport two 200dt standard container rack or one 400dt SDBs.Just to be clear, one transport moved one SDB. Am I understanding that right?

You are a valued contributor here gifting us with treasures, magmagmag!
Wonderful! Will you be including all the ships you have done? You did some fantastic capital ships a while back.
SULIEMAN II-CLASS SEEKER
A variation on the traditional scout/courier, a seeker has fewer staterooms and a smaller fuel tank, but its larger cargo bay and mining drones allow a single well-skilled prospector to scavenge asteroids.
A variation on the traditional scout/courier, the seeker is occasionally produced in this configuration by shipyards, but it is more common for it to be created by re-fitting an old scout retired from active service. A seeker has fewer staterooms and a smaller fuel tank, but its larger cargo bay and mining drones allow a single well-skilled prospector to scavenge asteroids and make a living looking for deposits of valuable minerals*1).

The cargo grabber arm gives a whole new meaning to a "high five"
There are two grabbers, so a double 'high five'.
Didn't notice them before, but they give the ship quite the image!
Where's Waldos?
SULIEMAN II-CLASS SEEKER
Using a surplus scout/courier as a starting point, the seeker is converted to a prospecting and mining ship for a small crew. Two of the four staterooms are removed, and the remaining two are converted to four half-sized staterooms (primarily to provide privacy for each of the crew of four). The common room is removed and replaced by a widening central aisle to provide its function. The crew consists of a pilot and three crew members, although the ship can be operated by only one person. The ship carries its original jump drive, maneuver drive, and power plant, which makes it theoretically capable of jump-2 and 2-G acceleration*2).
The bridge retains the scout/courier's Model-1 bis computer and one ton of fire control for its single hardpoint. The dual turret is fitted with a single pulse laser for use as a mining cutter. The mining laser operates as a pulse laser in combat situations. The air/raft is traded in on a prospecting buggy. The three-ton cargo compartment is retained, and the hull retains its streamlining. Two ore bays (thirteen tons each) are formed from fuel tankage, hull space, and instrumentation, reducing fuel tankage to thirty-three tons*2).
As much of the original scout equipment is retained as possible, if only because the instrumentation serves a prospector well in analyzing ore and geological formations. The ore bays are irregular in shape, with noticeable protrusions for the ship's landing feet. The ore bay access doors are mounted on the upper side of the ship, for ease of loading when on world surfaces. The upper gallery from the scout/courier is taken up primarily by the newly formed cargo bays; a small passage for the length of the ship is retained and allows access to the turret from the bridge and from the rear areas*2).

I saw an interesting effect when flipping through the images: like with a blink comparator, the images were overlaid exactly -- so it sort of looked like an animation of the hatches opening and the arms deploying. But doing it very quickly...
