The 2018 movie Prospect uses this idea.

	GURPS Traveller: Far Trader spent many words on the idea of LASH (Lighter Aboard Ship). The idea is you take something like a Modular Cutter (or in this case a lot of them) and using external clamps have your main ship grab them and Jump. The primary ship contains just a jump drive. So when it arrives in system, all the lighters detach and fly to the main world (or other worlds). and any new Lighters in the system fly up and attach. There is a tanker ship there to refuel the main ship. Once the lighters have all been reattached and the ship refueled it takes off again.

	This works just fine for the Battle Rider concept, so why not merchant ships too?
