{{quote|The Imperial Clipper is the quintessential Imperial ship. It epitomises elegance of form while delivering speed and agility. Because of its balance of Speed, Luxury and strength it is used for transporting valuable items and personnel of importance across the Empire.|In-Game Description}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''', built by [[Gutamaya]], is one of the [[Empire]]'s [[ships]] and thus are generally sold at [[Station]]s that are aligned with the Empire. To purchase the {{PAGENAME}} players must have earned the rank of Baron with the Imperial Navy.<ref group="nb">[[GalNet]] announced [https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/55a4dc5d9657ba6d253de737 14 Jul 3301] that all independent pilots with an active Imperial Navy rank could now purchase the Clipper.</ref>

This ship is quite popular with [[pirate]]s, [[trader]]s, and some combat pilots. It is a reasonable pirate ship due to the large cargo capacity and heavy armament. Traders may find this ship appealing due to its superb cargo capacity and defensive capability; while it is more expensive than the [[Lakon Type-7]] it can easily defend itself against a pirate.

Pilots of any [[profession]] may appreciate its speed; it is second only to the Cobra Mk.III with fully upgraded [[Thrusters]]. Additionally, its pitch rotation speed is higher than most ships, making it feel like a very hefty, weighted-down [[Eagle]] with a boost speed that is slightly higher than that of the [[Viper Mk III|Viper]]. Its only manoeuvering drawback, and likely the reason for its low overall agility rating, is its poor yaw capability; the vertical-lateral thrusters are very weak compared to those of other ships. This weakness, combined with very weak [[shield]]s for its size and wing-mounted [[hardpoint]]s ill-suited for fixed weapons, limits the Imperial Clipper's efficiency as a [[combat]] ship even if the shields are upgraded to maximum.

Speed and manoeuvrability fall off more heavily when heavily loaded than other ships, bringing it back into more normal speeds and turn rates when hauling cargo.

Both the ships interior and exterior are luxurious in design, the engines sport a radically different sound than other ships, and the large cockpit canopy features an unobstructed view of space.

Point Defence Turret

2015-02-24T22:48:25Z

109.190.70.123: It has been fixed in 1.1 patch

[[File:PointDefense_Ingame.png|thumb]]
{{quote|Missile Defence. Automatically tracks and fires upon missiles and torpedoes in range when powered.|In-Game Description}}

The '''Point Defence Turret''' is defensive weapon equipment that can be mounted on the "utility mount". Once mounted, the Point Defence Turret will automatically shoot [[Missile Rack|missiles]] and [[Mine Launcher|mines]] for as long as it has power and ammunition. It also shoots incoming any incoming cargo hatch breaker if in the turret's angle.

==Munitions==
Spent ammunition must be replenished once used. Any station is equipped with a "Re-arm" service will be able to replenish ammunition. Once docked at the station, ammunition can be purchased from the Munitions menu in the Starport Services.

Each shot costs ? CR per unit.

* Damage, DPS, and Thermal Load are all based upon the in-game display which is basically an "out of 10" scale thus the values for these sections should be assumed as approximations.

==Notes==
* Will shoot at all missiles and mines including the player's.
* The bullets appear to be green and fire in a three round burst.
