New ship: Panther Clipper

[Tifu]

We don't know the specs yet, but imo the PC Mk II should have:

1. 1200+ tonnes / units max cargo.
2. Same or longer than a Beluga Liner
3. Same or wider than a Type-9.
4. FSD SCO optimized
5. Class 8 power distributor
6. Class 8 thrusters
7. Fighter Hangar support

... and if only a handful of ships can mass lock it, the MK2 won't be as vulnerable as people think.

It depends on how exposed the engines are, since they are stuck out they look prime targets for module killing weapons.

I was going to mention shields but then I remembered what community I was in

[Bob McBobblehead]

What's the betting if the Panther Clipper has a class 8 FSD, that Fdev forget to added the class 8 pre engineered 8A FSD(Sco) to the human tech broker.

Store first, for ARX. Then after several months, for in-game credits.

I keep thinking it should be renamed to the Canther Plipper.

Are you sure that's not the name of your next Elf character in an RPG?
