my t9. not built for speed but cargo runs and planet scanning lv 3 ATM .it will be a struggle to stop interdiction but the little pirates haven't caught me yet! still needs some work, might need to lose the light weight (heavy armour upgrade engineered mod).And mass needs to come down with some changes to engineer, maybe later
i link the proper build later on has the one above is what i can remember of top of me head. inara is a bit slow to update ship builds.
This was massively hilarious!i land anywhere i plant the thing: buildings dont stand a chance if they had physic on
I chose the Type 9 for cargo capacity and cost, the Type 10 cost 48,199,502 Cr more and sometimes, I need a ship with large capacity but don't want to pay this amount of money for the number of missions I plan to carry over, here I'm thinking about Aisling Duval rating where you have to carry propaganda material to unlock Prismatic shields for example.I have noticed mentions of T9 several times in the last few replies. I am curious, the reason behind those T9 users did not pick a T10. Both are super large ships. T10 is slightly better handling, more options for defensive setups while mining or hauling. Both ships look great except that spoiler of T10.
some required med ships, others i have to rebuy small ships.The T9 has those 2 size 8 Cargo slots which is why its a great freighter.I have noticed mentions of T9 several times in the last few replies.

I cannot afford a T10 at this moment. Even if I could, I would have to make a long trip to the bubble from colonia. I have tried a T9 for few days just to see what it was all about. Is T9 and T10 both have same cockpit views?
This was massively hilarious!
That is a great point I have not thought about nor paid attention to. Indeed, T7 and T10 same number of slots. So other than the deep core mining ability and larger cargo haulage possibility, I am not really gaining much with T10 as far as exploration option goes.

I did some tweaking to the ship build and there are what I came up with:
T7 - Long Range
T9 - Long Range
T10 - Long Range
All 3 builds are for very long range exploration out in the fringes. In the range fight, T7 clearly wins. I can go over 1,000 LY with full tanks of fuel. Other than the T10 having a med hardpoint, I am not seeing much benefit with T10 over T7 as @Orvidius already pointed out.
Besides the lowest jump range and slow handling, T9 can fit everything I possibly will ever need, including a SLF hanger and still jump 42 LY. 700+ range I think more than adequate to explore even those super sparse areas?
In light of this new findings, this really swings my pick from T10 to T9. Best part, I never have to worry about Spoiler!!
I would prefer not to drop below 40 ly jump range. So downgrading the FSD probably wont be a good idea.
Another great point I have never thought of! It does make sense not to jump max range to conserve fuel. Have to test it out.
It's not so bad. I have mine set up as an armed cargo hauler, so it's not combat focused at all, but it does just fine against the various pirate types that interdict me, and that's all I need it to do. It might not be so great as a combat-only ship, but it could hold its own in most situations (regular RES sites or whatever). I'd not take it into a CZ though
Thats somewhat similar to how I thought I would do cargo runs. Do you have an example build to share? I dont do CZ really, but like to do Res sites sometimes. I might try out the T9 at a HazRes just to test its ability. I usually use my Crusader for that, up until started using the DBX. Yes it does take time to clear a site but going against an anaconda with my DBX and actually be able to finish the job is great.It's not so bad.

Well, this is my build. There's nothing special about it, just a bit of standard engineering here and there. It gets the job done for me. I only use it for hauling cargo, and fighting off the occasional pirate.

Thanks! Just wanted to have an idea how I would go about with defence. Given the massive size of it my mind was stuck with Armour side, but that means waste of slots as well. I think I will go the shield route.Well, this is my build. There's nothing special about it, just a bit of standard engineering here and there. It gets the job done for me.
