Ships Imperial Courier

Has anyone managed to find any info on stats of this ship? People were able to datamine most of stats on FDL and vulture before they got released so im curious if anyone has anything on it.

Datamined? Mike Evans kindly divulged a lot of them and the rest were guesses, but this time around I think we're going to have to wait for the beta.

It's going to be smexy. Be a multi role and likely cheaper than the clipper but I hope not by much so it has some good stats.
 
I WANT that ship... but every minute we don't know what it's actual purpose is I fear it won't fit into my play style. :/

I would love for it to have stats and fittings like the Asp, but faster, but I would pay some good credits with fittings like that and those looks.
 
The vulture stats were given to us long before 1.2 beta, by Michael.

I don't recall anyone knowing the FDL stats until beta launched and someone actually bought it. In fact, I believe that's exactly what happened.
 
Looks like an imperial cobra alright. 4 hardpoints that we know of from the model preview a while back, likely small/medium counterpart to clipper's medium/large fittings.
 
Any guesses on hard points from that picture?

It's looking like three small on the top, and either a medium or (hopefully) large below (unseen).

It's looking like around Cobra size from the seat / scanner.
 
Since David Braben said it's gonna be a shiny multi purpose ship I doubt it will have a higher jump range than the Asp. But everything nearing a top range of about 30 LY would already make me very happy.
By the looks of it, I suppose its cargo space won't be much larger than that of a Eagle, though :p

3 small and 1 medium would make it weaker than the Viper or cobra. 3 small and 1 large would make it a nasty little beast, if it's faster than both.

Seems Eagle sized to me..Maybe slightly bigger(10%)

My size estimate, from the scanner:

I unscientifically drew an ellipse around where the scanner was on one, and copied it and resized the other screenshot so it was about the same size compared with the small ellipse.

Note the Eagle, I think, is longer than the Cobra.

EDIT:

HA! This got me thinking. The Imperial Eagle Mk3 had two bars across the ends, while the Federal one had nothing on the wingtips. Maybe those bars were nacelles, and this is the Imperial Eagle Mk3, re-branded?
