Commanders, for your consideration, I present to you: Briarios (Yes I am a fan of Appleseed) :)

Felicity got her a jump range of a bit over 21 LY with my full combat loadout, twin hull reinforments, 126 Cargo & 64 Economy Passenger cabins, I could not be happier!

As a complete nerd for Appleseed I approve the name even if I'd seen other names better fitting...

Athena, Olympus, Guges, or whatever the giant insect-like gun platform were called...

Blimey!

21Ly is either an incredibly good FSD or a lightweight Corvette. [where is it]

I have something like 6 ships with a G5 6A FSD and I tried them all in my 'vette and the best jump-range I could get was 18Ly.
Interestingly, the worst jump-range I got was 17Ly so, in the end, I just stuck the worst C6 FSD I had in it 'cos it didn't seem to make much difference.

A smidge over a 48% FSD roll and lightweight sensors. I am very pleased but I am still going to try for a higher roll.

Actually, you just reminded me; I don't think I ever got around to light-weighting the life-support or sensors on my 'vette.
Presumably they're stupidly heavy and that would yield a decent benefit?

not so much life support, but 8D sensors weigh 64t, so yeah

They are!

Lightweight everything and you should be able to pull into the 22-23 Ly range with a +50% overspec. Depending on your actual weapon choices though. I had 22Ly on mine, but when I switched from C3 to 4A Beam Lasers, I lost a bunch of range. The Plasma Accelerator didn't help either.

This only matters if you need to take the thing out beyond your HQ/Core Systems. I primarily do Pirate Lord Assassination missions with mine, so my system to system jumps are always well under my max range in my local neighborhood. Even when I am down in the 17-18 range.

The Plasma Accelerator? As in only one?

You're doing it wrong. :p

Nah... One advanced version fully modified in the Belly Mount is all you need. Add two 4A beams with the Efficient Mod and Thermal Shock on top, and that blows away a dual Plasma rig any day of the week. And I haven't even mentioned all the G5 upgraded turreted MCs with every Experimental Effect you can name. ;)
