The '''Sidewinder MkI''', built by [[Faulcon DeLacy]], is a superb multipurpose ship suitable for any role. It is inexpensive - free, in fact - and can be used for light transport and [[combat]] duties.

Its manoeuvrability makes it an excellent choice for both green and experienced pilots. The Sidewinder is a dependable vessel that will get you where you need to go, safe and sound.

Uses the [[DeLacy Spin Ionic MV]].

==Overview==
The Sidewinder is the default craft offered throughout the game. The player starts in one, and if at any time their ship is destroyed they can get a free Sidewinder if they can't or don't want to replace their previous ship. New players who still struggle with learning the game, may find themselves flying in a Sidewinder for a longer time or going back to it often.

Although the Sidewinder is cheap, it is not harmless; it is among the top when it comes to manoeuvrability compared to other [[ships]]. In particular, it can out-turn most other ships, being topped in that category only by the [[Eagle]], [[Vulture]], and [[Imperial Courier]], and has solid lateral thrust.

It is, however, one of the slowest-moving and weakest-hulled ships in the game; only the [[Anaconda]] and certain pure trade ships have slower maximum speeds, and only the Eagle has a weaker hull (but makes up for it with stronger shields.)

The Sidewinder is therefore an acceptable ship in a (figurative) knife-fight, but lacks firepower. When flying one, using its excellent turning to lock opponents into circling matches, and burning away opposite of the enemy to escape are advised tactics. When fighting a Sidewinder, keep it at range and lay down heavy fire if the current ship can't outmanoeuvre it, and it should be destroyed quickly; with a ship that can keep up with its turning, close in and blast away, making sure to stay away from its front.

The weapon hardpoints are located as follows: 2 small hardpoints in front of cockpit on upper surface of ship.

The Sidewinder MkI has an available 16 piece cosmetic ship kit that can be purchased from the [https://www.frontierstore.net Frontier store] which allows you to "remodel your ship in your personal style". The ship kit does not affect gameplay.

== Purchase Locations ==
The Sidewinder can be purchased at nearly any shipyard.

{{quote|In September, Gutamaya Shipyards released a new version of the enduringly popular Eagle. This month, the company has announced the launch of a new fighter designed specifically for the CQC Championship – the Imperial Fighter. Gutamaya has said that the small, manoeuvrable vessel will be ideally suited to close-quarters dogfights, and more than capable of going toe-to-toe with other CQC fighters.|Galnet News, 06 DEC 3301<ref name=":0">https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/56617a8b9657bafb2210d8c3</ref>}}

The '''Imperial Fighter''', also known as the '''Gu-97 Fighter''', is the standard [[Empire]] small-class single man [[ships|ship]]. It is as noted for its high manoeuvrability and firepower as it is for its low shielding and range. It is typically launched as support craft for an imperial cruiser, and is useless on its own if outflanked or outnumbered. It is most commonly seen in conflict zones which include an imperial faction, or patrolling space stations in imperial territory.

The Imperial Fighter is currently accessible in [[Close Quarters Combat]], and was added as a Ship-Launched Fighter alongside the [[F63 Condor]] and [[Taipan Fighter]] in the [[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]] 2.2 update.

==Variants==
Like the [[F63 Condor]] and [[Taipan Fighter|Taipan]], the Imperial Fighter is available in 5 variants, which differ only in weapons and utility slot.

==Notes==
