That Fer de lance, though!

Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh

I may be in love!
 
Wow!
Looks like a a twistover of the ASP (top fins) and the adder.
I like the looks, reminds me of my wc:priv centurion. Must have *drool*

I wonder where the hardpoints are located

Looks like a large below and atop (zorgon perterson style)
and two small at the engines.
 
Based on the size of the gear covers, and the rear hatch, it looks small. really small. Maybe like the Lotus Elise of the Elite universe? Tiny but packs a punch? Something like the eagle but maybe a bit higher-end.

After looking at some of the old models from previous games, I do think it would have been neat to keep the single-engine kinda look, but i can see how this is a bit more practical. having two engines flanking a center cargo/internal compartment is a lot more efficient. Still, the former would be an interesting variation.

We have a small fighter(eagle) Medium fighter(Viper) what we don't have yet is a larger fighter that uses medium pads.. So I would guess this would be be Asp sized. Which, if I remember rightly the FDL was in the original game. The multiple engines seem to give the impression it's bigger than a viper.

And yes, I want..

will probably be in the clipper price range

I wish they release a more combat oriented ship upgrade for the viper

Maybe the Gecko from other elites
 
I was always wishing I could get one of those, whenever I'd see them around in the original Elite game. That concept art looks nice, but it's not quite what I was expecting. I am also really curious how much it will cost, and what it's performance/capabilities will be.

Does not look like a fighter ship

More like a luxury travel with weapons ship

Like the original fer de lance
