Fortunately, it has lots of military slots to put Module Reinforcements in. 
3.0: The Lakon Rises

So the Vulture has a bigger friend now? xD
Lakon ships are highly underated. They're not flashy nor extraordinarily expensive but are very flexible and get the job done. Very like this ship for example

Serenity's design always made me give it a weird look, like why does it look like a robo-goose
Before anything is said I AM NOT TRYING TO HIJACK A THREAD OR BE RUDE TO A MODERATOR:x Why is it fdev is buffing the type 7 or heck the type 9 since it should have had the most cargo space in game from the launch of the game. I mean why is the conda or vette not even being touched or improved on at all. But who knows at this point heck they might even give a buff to the sidewinder and give us 3 small hard point's,
Cos people complained enough to get their attention.
If you want someone to complain to, do it to the community. FDev, for once, isn't to blame.
And honestly, Fdev do sometimes get way too much flak. Just look at the Blizzard Overwatch team to see what a true steaming pile of garbage is, it'll make you more grateful towards other devs, trust me.
The Firefly chassis had the pilot cabin and living area compartments sitting on top of a huge cargo hold. This arrangement allows the huge front cargo doors to be right in front of the largest cargo compartment - in one episode a whole herd of cows were loaded and unloaded via the front ramp.

Yep, I called it the Lakon Love release in earlier threads. I am so excited!
I might even make the Type-10 my main multi-role ship now and use the Type-9 as my primary bulk trader. Thank you Frontier for the improvements to the Lakon ships! Much appreciated

Idk bro... one day.. some 'immersion killer' pointed out the shoddily configured wiring above the dash on the Conda, and it really bothers me now..
AHAHAHA. Oh please. Anaconda is broken, has a hull mass that's nonsensical and a set of stats that bears no resemblance to anything else in the game. At all. It's broken and Frontier continue to pretend that no-one has noticed. Corvette? It's got terrible jump range. That about covers it.
Anaconda is so broken that even when Frontier accidentally gave Type-7 class '6' everything, including FSD. Which was horrifically broken. It still had worse jump range than Anaconda. Lordy. Even an accidentally broken ship, couldn't compete with the officially broken one.
I'm not even sure what you are complaining about; I'm not sure you know, either.

That exposed, shoddy wiring? intentional. Let that sink in for a bit. Am I helping? Pretty sure I am helping. Happy to have helped! Just look at that really shoddy wiring job. Isn't it amazing? [TRIGGERING INTENSIFIES]

Spoke like a true someone who has never set foot in a Saud Kruger masterpiece.
An old ship....
Now that's what I call an Imperial Courier!
Perhaps the original Imperial Courier will make a return to the Elite Universe?

I haven't seen any details on the T7 buffs yet. The only one mentioned in the patch notes is a jump range buff, but I haven't seen anything about how they did this or how much effect it has.
I haven't see anything about additional slot or PD upgrade either except in this thread. Any more info? The PD would absolutely help it for mining, but would be nice if it got perhaps its top and bottom hardpoints changed to medium.
An extra size two module would indeed be nice -- I can think of lots of things to put in there (discovery scanner, docking computer, AFMU, mining limpet controller, emergency fuel scoop, SRV, module reinforcements...)
So I sure hope you're right about all this.
We sure do.
I know you were being facetious here but a Sidewinder with 3 small hardpoints = Eagle. There's precious little room for a Sidey buff that doesn't make Eagle/Hauler or the next upmarket multirole Adder redundant.
Nobody is crying a river for Anaconda CMDRs. I have a little more sympathy for Corvette CMDR's who might feel their ships could use a little help just to better differentiate them from the OP'ed Anaconda.
The Lakon buffs help keep these ships a bit more relevant as more-than-transitional ships. This isn't going to make any Python or Clipper CMDR's trade in for a Type 7, and I can't imagine many Cutter CMDRs are going to flock to the Type 9 either unless they *really* want to reduce rebuy/repair costs. At least it gives a reason to fly a Type 9 rather than a Type 10 or Anaconda. I imagine FDev pays attention to how much players use each ship, and are more likely to buff the ones that get less usage.
