The Original Cobra Mk.III

[Rebel RDX]

For anyone that might be interested.

Taken from the Space Traders Flight Training Manual 1984...

"Larger, more popular version of the Cobra Mk I (the Mk 2 only reached prototype stage and was abandoned due to a design fault in the hull). This ship is equipped with several special features, including Zieman Energy Deflection Shields, fore and aft, and mountings for four Ingram Pulse lasers. The Cobra is much favoured by lone-wolf traders who wish to combine potential superior combat qualities with adequate cargo space"

Maybe Zieman got swallowed by a larger corporation...

OP: Cool! Any more to share?

The 3301/2015 Cobra Mk. III wasn't half bad either. [insert nostalgia emoji here]

Ah, the glory days of rum running rares in Open.

For those who don't know, Jameson's Cobra is an Easter egg in this game.

Good point, and I don't want to spoil it for anyone but I would highly recommend a visit especially for those that have experienced previous versions of Elite

 

[Rebel RDX]

Have a Krait?

Yes, I'll put it up as a new post.
Wait one...

[Phoenix_Dfire]

Well, it's still in the game.
