General / Off-Topic Film/TV ships that fit into the ED Lore

Someone mentioned the Normamdy already but I forgot about the Temptest entirely.
Also, I can't believe no one pointed this out yet, but Serenity has no FTL drive. Nothing in that universe does, as the tech was never developed. The 'Verse is one very large trinary (or larger) solar system, which all ships navigate at sublight speeds. Humanity got there in a fleet of sleeper or generation ships.
Yeah, but the ship could still be translated to ED, with a FSD fitted.
The Firefly does appear to have artificial gravity though. Otherwise, several weeks flight in freefall with a herd of cows wouldn't be a pleasant experience. It's not unlikely that constant acceleration from the thrusters are what provides this gravity. Something that only the flight model doesn't allow in ED.
The Serenity is meant to be an awful ship.
I laughed out loud at the flashback when he reveals he bought it and the response is, "On purpose?"
That scene where Captain Mal is in the shipyard and he sees the Serenity for the first time... wonderful!
Not sure if this counts but I'm suggesting it anyway....
I got a link to this from one of those clickbait websites and it'd make the perfect flying companion to the SRV.

We are going to need something to use on or under the water when we finally get to land on waterworlds.
Wow. Pretty impressive ones too. Space underwire incoming?
Agree.
And the best: it already comes fitted with 8 packhound racks

booooooo!Nice ship, great movie, but it takes two to pilot, one pilot and one gunner and no cargo capacity as it is a pure fighter. Sorry
I think the eagle transporter needs to be ingame, it could be made faster.
The cockpit interior design is from the 70's and should be changed, but it is so versatile that i would love to fly it.

That one would fit with the existing ships.
Elite's ships have clear shaped designs. A lot of the suggestions are ships with vague shapes and too much stuff attached to the main hull. That isn't memorable and those aren't anything like Elite ships.
A ship that would fit right into Elite is the Apocalypse of Eve Online. Because this battleship has a streamlined shape.

One of those guys is clearly doing the turrets in multi-crew! You got a point on the cargo though.
Good try but ships currently in the game aren't permitted in this list
