Lakon Spaceways now owns the licence to construct these ships and has marketed them heavily at customers looking for their first multi-crewed ships. The ship class has earned a solid reputation for long range missions and those requiring some discretion.|In-Game Description}}

As the name suggests this craft has a high jump range relative to other ships in the game. It has six weapon hardpoints and has a good turning circle for its size. Therefore the Asp is able to act as an explorer but also as a heavy duty bounty hunting vessel if the Viper is not to the player's taste and as an ideal pirate ship. Its ample cargo capacity and heavy armament make it ideal for this purpose. Its jump range also allows pirates to reach systems of a different faction to pay off any particularly fustrating bounties.

The main downside of the Asp is the lofty price tag with approximately a 5 million credit difference between the Asp and the Lakon-6, and 5.7 million credits more expensive than the Cobra, the last multipurpose vehicle before progressing to the Asp. This is a very large price gap worth consideration when deciding what spaceship to aim for.

As a trading vessel it is almost obsolete aside from its weaponry. The Lakon-6 is 5 million credits cheaper for a similar cargo capacity and similar jump range with an upgraded frame shift drive.

{{quote|The Adder is another classic design, this ship was tailored as a general utility vessel. the original model was first built in 2914 by Outworld Workshops and the type is now manufactured by Zorgon Peterson. Although lightly armed it has more cargo capacity than a Sidewinder and this ship can often be seen doing shuttle runs as well as light trading.|In-Game Description}}

The '''Adder''' is a small multi-purpose ship excellent as a bridge between the Sidewinder and the Cobra Mk. III. In addition to being a potentially viable dogfighter with proper equipment, the Adder has the distinction of being the least expensive ship capable of mounting a Class II Mining Laser, making it a potentially useful starting point for aspiring miners. The Adder's respectable jump range also makes it a potentially capable exploratory vessel, and its maximum cargo capacity of 26 without shields makes it the largest cargo capacity trading vessel to cost less than 100,000 Credits.

Its inexpensiveness and respectable general-purpose capabilities make it a rugged, attractive craft, especially for newer Commanders.
