She's big, heavy, mean, thick skinned and sometimes excessive - and one heck of a battering ram.
And still flies circles around anything her size.
Federal Corvette... Maybe we've had it wrong all this time.

Well there's your problem, right there.
Every step, and every ship, in ED should be teaching you about what works, what doesn't, what to do and what not to do.
Rushing to get to big ships means you don't learn the advantages and weaknesses of all the ships you've ignored.
As for the Corvette, it can dogfight with Vultures and FdLs perfectly well.
Thats how you do it !
Hey @Rick6549 when you have your Beluga finished let's duke it out once and for all, your fat fish against my federal murdermachine
Can't say I like the Corvette, so turned mine into a passenger ship called the 'Love Boat'. It just gathers dust, rust and cobwebs.
If you go with Deep Plating all the way and two HD booster, it is even stronger: https://s.orbis.zone/4ol6

Thanks for the concern, but the Cutter offers more thrust and there is always the Thargoids to fall back on.Sorry to hear about your love life.
More raw armor, little lighter on the resists. I tend to have noticed that resists can really make a difference.
Until you want to fight Thargoids.
Indeed, the resists can really make a difference... but not when ramming or being rammed.
agreed they're far too agile - imagine the salt though
I know, imagine the salt if my other pet hate was handled.
I personally think that the huge ships shouldn't even be able to be piloted without a crew...
The reality is TLB will prevent you from applying firepower in any meaningful way. You will get pummeled from all sides and if you are lucky enough to not get grommed as you try to highwake you will leave the instance without having accomplished very much.
Agile and Type-9 never wind up in the same sentence without a negative modifier somewhere. The Type-10 shares this characteristic.
The first Thargoid I took out I took out in an Orca rigged for Search and Rescue operations.
Later ones were taken with a Federal Gunship and Fer de Lance rigged for extreme damage.
Then I decided they simply weren't much fun to mess with, paid too little, and since they weren't actively bothering me, I wasn't going out of my way to bother them.
