The '''Rhino''' can be entered through a red teleporter on the back. This pad will teleport players into the lower hangar, which contains 8 fighters. There is also a ladder that lets players ascend to the upper hangar and the driver's seat. The upper hangar contains 2 fighters. If players continue to walk up, they will arrive at the highest point of the ship, with a weird sphere, which is surprisingly the pilot's seat. | The '''Rhino''' can be entered through a red teleporter on the back.

* When [[Sieging]], stay out of range of the base but turn sideways towards it to allow faster Fighter release.

* Used to be one of the only Carriers with non-solid Fighter bay doors. Because of this, players could walk through the doors and even pilot small ships into the '''Rhino'''. This has since been removed with the new interior remodel, although players can still pilot small ships into the '''Rhino''' with proper timing. | * Used to be one of the only Carriers with non-solid Fighter bay doors.
