Make Different Ships in Super Cruise Sound Different Please

So far I have tried every ship in the game minus the Corvette which I'm about 2 days away from, And all of them sound the same when in supercruise, Whether it's accelerating or decelerating, They all sound the same.

It's bad enough that some of the ships sound like steam engines or some sound like asthmatic 600 pound cheese burger lovers but now this ?

Come on FD, I know you can do better.

I'm also quite fond of the idea that ships should also have different acceleration and deceleration stats too.
(They already handle differently, so why not?)

Everyone traveling at the same speed is rather dull.

I think some engines like on the Corvette, Anaconda, Cutter and FDL should sound really violently aggressive, They are essentially warships and should sound like it, Right now they sound weak, Feeble and slightly pathetic.

I know some movies have used the roars of animals, Movie animals and mixed in with engine sounds to give a really aggressive sound profile, Something like the T-Rex roar from JP but mixed in with engine sounds to create something very aggressive -

I can understand the desire for different engine sounds using regular thrusters, but surely an FSD drive is a different thing altogether seeing as it's a warp drive and as such wouldn't really have much sound at all even in SC.

I agree with this sentiment. The FSD would be pretty standardized when it came to how it pushes a ship into Supercruise and later on into Witchspace, that while there might be some vibrational changes between a Sidewinder and an Anaconda, it's spool up would be pretty much the same regardless.

Unique sounds would be from the Thrusters of the ships instead... Which while being nonsensical in some cases (like the ASPX which sounds a lot like a single-engine Cessna), is surprising in others (like the FAS which sounds like the purr of a seriously muscle car).
