I wish Frontier were better at naming ships.

No Beluga either...
Completely agree. I still have one and routinely fly it. Brilliant wee ship and great fun to fly.
Poor asp scout isn't even on the list.
DBX is quite surprising, given the aesthetics disdain that most seem to have for it. I'd say the only reason between it and AspX is rivalry for Exploration as a focus.
Where's the Asp Scout ?
Who cares?Where's the Asp Scout ?
It's not a click-bait title, honest... :x... as you will be amazed how largely predictable the results are, although there are a couple of small surprises, just nothing major. So before you reveal the spoilers just have a quick wee ponder on what the top seven ships might be, and their likely order.
There were twenty-three ships voted for overall with 171 votes cast in total, and so....
1-3
1st - Python
2nd - Asp Explorer
3rd - Diamondback Explorer
4-7
4th - Imperial Cutter
5th - Federal Corvette
6th - Anaconda
7th - Fer-De-Lance
8-20
8th - Chieftain
9th - Cobra III and Vulture
11th - FGS
12th - iCourier
13th - iClipper
14th - DbS
15th - Viper IV and T-9
17th - Adder and FAS
19th - T6 and Dolphin
Bottom 3
20 - Cobra IV
21 - T-10
23 and Last - Eagle
Well, there you have it, another bit of trivial fun done and dusted. I was a bit surprised to see a couple ships in their respective positions. What do you think?
On the side of the road with a flat tire, with that nagging feeling it might have left the oven on. Poor thing.
No iEagle? YOU PEOPLE HAVE NO TASTE.

According to Sandro sometime last year, they're going to do something for the AspS sometime this year. I'm curious to see what.
Some of those who voted should have tried the T-7 in explorer setup. It’ll jump more than 45 ly (right now without the Guardian booster), nice big unrestricted compartments, good top speed and high boost, very manouverable, big fuel tank, nice Lakon cabin and can’t be interdicted if anything above a slug is at the helm. It has the aesthetics of a brick, but perhaps it’s one of the most realistically looking ships in the game (??). I fly mine often and enjoy it eventhough I have ships like the Anaconda, AspX and others.

I hope they take the opportunity to do something with the Keelback as well. Quite how they've made a Q ship slower and less manoeuvrable than its base model is beyond me. Either give it bigger guns or improve its performance because at the moment it's pretty pointless. And I say this as a fan of the ship, the boost sound is epic.
