I still use the link to my Asp here on INARA
The Real Stars of The Galaxy: Our Glorious Space Ships!
- Thread starter Kancro Vantas
- Start date
I've thought about redoing my sig to link to the Ronin I registered earlier in the thread. It's career is coming along splendidly and I've done numerous edits to the registration to include updated info and accomplishments. [up]
...
I think it might gain more traction if the OP were still active here, but it's a lovely thread none the less.

The RRC 'Longshot' (DBX)
The Rock Rat Container 'Longshot' Diamondback Explorer
It was around waypoint 14 of the 3302 Distant Worlds Expedition, when, due to exhaustion from endless prospecting runs, i fell asleep in my SRV and ran out fuel.
As this had been my only SRV and a Rock Rat can not live without one, i had to leave my Asp behind and race out there again.
I had this DBX i bought just before DWE, mostly cause i liked the looks and wanted to check it out, sitting in a Coriolis station and i hastily outfitted it, leaving the AFMU out in favor of two SRVs, hence the name 'Longshot':

I also slapped on this sexy chrome paint job i bought during the sale and i was good to go!
After 4 days of intensive jonking, i caught up with the fleet around waypoint 18 and i was already falling in love with this little tin can!
It went on to fulfill its purpose flawlessly, even though i dipped into the occasional neutron star or bellyflopped at Beale Point.
It was the perfect ship for a Maître Shenanigateur and it went on to become the ship, crossing the Abyss furthest west to date:

After some more exploration in the western regoins of the galaxy,
the 'Longshot' hit home and brought me safely back to civilization.
It will always hold a very special place in my heart.
Cheers,

And this thread is one of the best on the forum. Great advertising for E : D!
And I am talking with myself in a necro thread!

I've gone ahead and started a followup thread here, since this thread and the OP hasn't been updated for a very long time. → https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...ic-Ships-of-Elite-–-Followup-amp-Continuation
Feel free to submit your ship entries there, if you would like to do so.
I will be maintaining and updating the thread on a regular basis.
I'm changing the format a little by limiting entries to one ship per Commander. See the above linked thread for more info.
Cheers, and fly smartly, Commanders. o7
