Or better yet leave the existing names alone and use that name for a new ship.

Good point! Thing is, I have one of every ship (except the MKIV)... some have rubbish names mind you, and some I've never flown...
The Beluga is reserved for a special mission when I feel like it. When I was a beginner, my days were plagued with these behemoths blocking the mailslot and ramming me in the toast rack. Therefore, I'll be rigging one up with just the barest of E modules and using it to explore, in great detail and very close up, the core of a star.

How come you haven't got a Viper MkIV?
While I was waiting for my carrier to jump, I started looking into VR. So many questions... better look at the right forum but I did a quick query and the Oculus Rift S is getting a good few positive results.
Early days, lots to research...

I'm not sure why I'm surprised that you don't have Cobra IV since I'm pretty sure you haven't been playing much longer than me. Even though you may seem like an ancient veteran due to this thread.
And I still want the IV. Crap or not.
What about hardpoints? I'm looking for a small ship to become my missile barge for retiring scavs from above.
Not that I'll be using Cobra IV of course!

Yep, I think you'll beat me to it
Advanced missile racks. I really liked those since Odyssey started and was always equipping "planetary" ships with them, a pair usually, you're always short on rockets. Turns out though, you never spend all their ammo, even if you have two, you're just done with all the missions before the ammo is gone. Maybe i'm doing something wrong, idk, but if scavs, that means a rather limited number per mission (if they're there at all, and those coming after powering up stuffs are not consuming rockets). I even engineered some for capacity i think, not sure. Hopefully didn't, their ammo is way enough. Maybe there're missions with lots of scavs, idk. I usually do something closer to the law side, or at least not
blatantly illegal.
There are a few phenomena right here in Colonia.
Then I found some more exploring some more stars nearby. Excuse yourself, space-mollusk!

Hopefully you have heard of the "World of Death" about 500ly from your current location. Riding on the "World of Death" through the jet code of the neutron star it orbits is one of the very finest exploration treats in the game IMO. Just make sure you land on the planet at the right time and dismiss your ship, and call it back at the right time. The SRV is immune to the jet cone, the ship is not. Last time I was there a Fleet Carrier was on stand by for the rebuy. The first time I was there, I had to use that Fleet Carrier
11 down, 1 to go.
My promotion to Post Commander mission is waiting for me to accept. After that, two more promotions to go....
I've made mine back when Sosong burned, at xeno CG, rescuing ppl. Was a bit concerning while cherry picking feds to rescue mostly them (could not refuse smaller groups of neutrals, was already too evil). Wasn't a breeze, but i did make two ranks i had left. A little less than 1% for higher rank, and that doubles if mission happens to have a rep reward. Easy 5-10% per run, and that's in Orca, ppl have more effective ships for that, while my passengers have windows. Got to wait for someone to burn though.
Today was a good day. 13 MI's and 3 patrol routes

I had forgotten how sexy "Iridescent Scorch" looks - the Cutter really shows it off:
I wish I had bought it for more of my accounts / ships.

It's a great paint.
I also like chrome and that black one that makes my mamba look like a black hole.
Are those not available anymore?
