Good beak day, everyone.
I think it's time to start a theorizing thread about the possible builds for thereal Python Mk II Gutamaya Corsair - aka The Beak.
What we know for now:
Medium pad size
Core internals
class 7 Powerplant
class 7 Thrusters
class 5 Frame Shift Drive (SCO optimized)
class ? Life Support (propably 4)
class 7 Power Distributor
class 6 Sensors
class ? Fuel Tank (propably 5)
Optional Internals
class 6

class 6
class 5
class 5
class 5
class 4
class 3
class 2
class 1
Utilities
unknown (propably 4)
Hardpoints
L
L
L
M
M
M
(all on the hull so good convergence)
What could we do with it?
Basically everything imho
It can propably use a c4 or even c3 shield like the Python does, making it a good medium trader, or a good medium PAX runner.
Not as good as the T8 in raw cargo tho.
Speed will be higher than the Python (642 max?) so it will be a good smuggler or piracy vessel.
It will be a good combat ship, due to being able to fit a c6 prismatic and two c6 SCBs, making it near certainly better shielded than a FdL or PyMk2.
Due to good convergence and a c7 Distri, it propably will be a good PvP ship, with a 6 PA loadout (nods at @Dillon Fallon) or the classic all frag outfit.
I'm propably using my first one as a PvE combat ship, with 3 fixed M long range beams and 3 overcharged multicannons, using the c7 Distro to power the beams
and possibly a guardian boosted bi-weave or SCB boosted Prisma.
AX it will propably also shine (6 convergent guardian plasma chargers).
Exploration will be worse than in many other ships, due to the iCourier cockpit and limited visibility.
It won't be a jack of all trades ship sadly due to no c7 slot (no c7 universal limpet controller
)
What are your propable use cases?
