You mean, like the DSSA?

Right now, I'd say your best bet would be to offer support to system colonizers - those guys/gaös are usually filthy rich, while simultaneously being in need of transport aid. Depending on which materials they need, a Python or Type-8 might be better ship.

That's a lot of credits. The two ways I've seen it done personally are...
A) Long Haul Exploration scanning every undiscovered life form along the way, for which I recommend ED Copilot to help track how much you've scanned.
B) A wing stacking winged massacre missions, which was done with the help of a squadron.

I've also been told that you can...

C) Trade like your life depends on it. Being predominantly a merchant myself, I don't know how good of a rout this actually is. Good routes can net you 30-40 million an hour but don't generally last that long before prices shift. https://inara.cz can help you find those. The Pilot Trade Network could also help you out here, though. They always have a carrier somewhere that needs loaded or unloaded at a profit.

exobiology... all you need is an Artemis suit (try to find a G3 for sale at ports, but not absolutely necessary)
and set your Krait up for decent jump range.

you can earn 5B in 2 or 3 weeks
