F63 Fighter - what is it?
- Thread starter TinyLewis
- Start date
A light NPC only fighter, normally found patrolling stations. Not jump capable, hopefully we will be able to store a few on our Conda's in the future

Tiny combat ship with no FSD according to lore. NPC only. They're in some of the tutorials IIRC, if you want to see one up close.

It is in the Wiki but they call it the F63 Condor.
Here is a quote from the entry:
The F63 Condor is the mainstay superiority fighter of the Federation Intervention fleet. Deployed locally by Federation capital vessels, the Condor is meant to fly in large numbers to make up for the lack of its defensive capabilities; it tends, as seen in Conflict Zones, to fly unshielded. Its small size and manoeuvrability is what makes it hard to hit, and it can be assumed to be very cheap to mass produce due to its size. The F63 Condor also has two hardpoints.
The F63 Condor is currently not flyable by players, but it is believed that it will become a flyable ship at some point in the game's future.

The Condor is a short ranged one seated military fighter made by Core Dynamics, and is essentially the carrier based Federation counterpart to the Imperial Fighter.
Here are some screenshots from the Condor below, click on a picture to view it at full res.
The Condor is too small and specialized to have a Jump drive, so it is - for the time being - an NPC ship. In the future, FDEV have hinted that we will be able to pilot it, since it can be transferred by big ships that have a docking bay like the Anaconda. You can see a Condor launching from an Anaconda in the GDC ED trailer below.

Hope that helps, cheers.
