Taipan purchase locations?

Hey, has anyone been to a station that sells the Taipan? If so, where please. All I'm seeing is the Condor.

Ray Gateway, Diaguandri system sells Taipans, 15% discount because it's a Li Yong Rui system, as well. It's where I got mine from, haven't been anywhere else really to notice, so far.

inb4 "Jameson Memorial" - yeah, okay, some of us aren't Elite in anything yet!

I don't know if this is how it works but I've noticed that depending on the allegiance you are gonna fifind certain fighter for instance you can find the condor on federal systems, the taipan in independent or alliance and the imperial on imperial systems

Just came from Ray Gateway, they don't have them there any longer. Just wanted to update. :)

AFAIK :

Any Independent or Alliance Station can sell the Taipan - won't sell the F63/Imp. Fighter.
Any Federation Station can sell the F63 - won't sell the Taipan/Imp. Figther.
Any Empire Station can sell the Imp. Fighter - won't sell the F63/Taipan.

Caviat : some Stations have a limited selection, some may not even offer a Fighter Bay.
If a Fighter bay is already fitted, however, you'll be able to purchase some Fighters for that Bay it seems.
So to ensure the Equipment is there, try to aim for a large Population Industrial or better High-Tech System.

I've got several Fighter Bays in Storage, storing them will store any equipped Fighter types as well.
It's basically the only way to have permanent access to all different Fighters at a single place.
(caviat here : the Equipment storage doesn't yield any details on contained Fighters when storing Fighter bays... so getting the right one of a list of several is a bit Trial & Error)

Edit:. Dude this thread is from October. I'm sure he found his Taipan by now. Yeesh.

Still helpful for me and others looking up where to get a Taipan!

However.... I wanted the Gelid F (Fixed beam) version which Leesti doesn't sell - if anyone knows where I can buy Gelid F variant, please tell where it is - I got the plasma one for now, but it's not the one I came for!

Punch in fighter bays in Station Sells Modules and Alliance under Allegiance. You're welcome.
 
Any independent or alliance system that's high tech should stock them.
Yep. That's basically it.

They're fun ships too. I love how the wings tuck in to fit the bay.

^^ This is still a good location for the time being, all 6 variants confirmed available. The Taipan is just so cool!
 
Tried that - all the stations I got in the results sold variants of the Taipan, but not the one I was after - will be trying Nganji when I get home though! Thanks to all who replied me!

Just about any high tech system that is either independent or alliance alignment should have Taipans use the map filters to find the nearest one. Save yourself the trouble though and go buy an imperial fighter, they're better xD
