{{Quote|The Krait MkII is a reimagining of the Krait Lightspeeder, which was originally manufactured by Faulcon DeLacy in the 3100s. Although the new ship is larger than the original, it possesses many of the same characteristics, emphasizing speed, manoeuvrability and firepower over defensive capability. The ship also boasts a fighter bay and space for up to two crew members, making it a good option for those seeking a medium-weight, multipurpose vessel.|In-Game Description}}
The '''Krait MkII''' is a [[Ships|ship]] manufactured by [[Faulcon DeLacy]]. The modern successor of the discontinued [[Krait MkI]], the Krait MkII greatly expands upon the premise of the original, resulting in a larger, well-rounded ship intended to provide a more combat-focused alternative to Faulcon DeLacy's other mid-size multipurpose craft, the [[Python]]. Due to its inconspicuous design, the Krait MkII is also less likely to attract the attention of local authorities and has potential as a smuggling vessel.<ref name="PCGN">[https://www.pcgamesn.com/elite-dangerous/elite-dangerous-beyond-chapter-two-cinematic PCGamesN: Feast your eyes on the Krait Mk II in the latest Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter Two cinematic]</ref>

== Overview ==
The Krait MkII is a leaner, meaner alternative to the [[Python]], featuring almost identical module and hardpoint specifications. The main differences are that the Krait is cheaper and has one fewer Class 6 internal compartment, lower armour, lower hull mass, three pilot seats for [[Multicrew]] instead of two, and the ability to carry a Class 5 or 6 [[Fighter Hangar]] for [[Ship-Launched Fighters]]. While the Python wins out in total cargo capacity and armour, the Krait's other characteristics make it a faster, more agile ship with a higher jump range potential and excellent combat utility for its price.

The Krait's three large hardpoints are mounted in a delta pattern on the vessel's dorsal surface, behind the cockpit. The two medium hardpoints are mounted on the underside of the front-most points of the hull, on either side of the cockpit and slightly forward.

The primary pilot's seat is located squarely along the centerline of the ship, but the cockpit itself extends from the hull and is slightly under-slung, affording a wide, unobstructed frontal view reminiscent of a [[Lakon Spaceways]] ship such as the [[Asp Explorer]]. The two secondary pilot seats flank the primary pilot seat to the left and right, and have separate canopies.

== Notes ==
*The Krait MkII was released with the Chapter Two (3.1) update of ''[[Elite Dangerous: Beyond]]'' on June 28, 2018.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idrnfZ-q4X8 YouTube: Elite Dangerous: Beyond – Chapter Two cinematic trailer]</ref> Purchasing it requires owning ''[[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]]''.<ref>[https://youtu.be/jevg_IcTtdE?t=2811 YouTube: Krait Expectations (46:51)]</ref>
*''Elite Dangerous'' narrative lead Ian Dingwall describes the ship: ''"You might think of the Krait Mk II as analogous to modern updates of the real-world Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Beetle... It's a reimagining of a classic that connects conceptually and aesthetically with the ship from 1984's Elite, while offering enough innovation and quality to compete with contemporary rivals in Elite Dangerous. While the Mk II embodies the essence of the original, it's very much its own ship."''<ref name="PCGN" />
*Senior designer Barry Clark said the Krait MkII ''"currently occupies a unique place among our ship roster and is very popular among players... The idea of a low-profile ship for Commanders flying dubious cargo was really cool to us, too. The Krait is a great all-round ship with a strong hull, powerful engines – which look super-cool – and a great load-out. It's also less 'conspicuous', meaning it's less likely to get scanned by the police compared to other ships of that size and class. It has significant straight line speed and power, as well as enough firepower to match the Python thanks to three large and two medium hardpoints. It has a really nice punch against a variety of ship types and sizes."''<ref name="PCGN" />

==Trivia==
* The Krait MkII was first teased in the first trailer for Beyond Chapter 2, where its engines were shown.
* The Krait MkII may have been originally named the "Krait Tornado" after the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panavia_Tornado Panavia Tornado].<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/90hyvz/remember_the_frontier_store_leak_talking_about_a/ r/EliteDangerous: Remember the Frontier Store leak talking about a Krait Phantom? Apparently we're currently flying a Krait Tornado.]</ref>

{{quote|Master Chefs are selected based on genetic markers that tend to favour an aptitude for the gourmet. Little is known about them except that they are kidnapped as children and then trained under mysterious conditions to bring out their genetic cooking potential. The use of Master Chefs is illegal in most Federal and Alliance systems, but is regarded as a sign of high status in many Imperial systems. Many anti-slavery protest groups have tried to free Master Chefs from their life of culinary bondage, yet due to their training, most return of their own free will to serve. Theirs is a life of servitude - they know nothing but to cook.|In-Game Description}}

'''Master Chefs''' is a specific item of [[Commodities#Slaves|Slaves]] in the world of [[Elite Dangerous]].

Rare goods increase in value the further you travel from their point of purchase.

The name 'Master Chef' is a reference to a misspelling of Master Chief, the protagonist of the Halo game series. The description is close to the story of how Spartans are described as being raised from birth into a life of military servitude in the Halo universe.

It is one of the smallest fighters available with jump capability. It has the distinction of being the only ship that has been so successful versions have been built for both the Federation and Imperial navies. This role has been superseded by the respective navies' short range fighter programmes, but the Eagle still sees extensive service across human space. Core Dynamics are no longer building these ships, but do still provide part and servicing due to their popularity.|In-game description}}
The '''Imperial Eagle '''was added in the v1.4 update [[CQC]] on October 6th, 2015. The concept art image was shown during Frontier's Q&A session at [[Lavecon]] 2015 and it is variant of the [[Eagle MkII]]; also known as '''Eagle MkIII'''. It is faster than the Eagle MkII at the cost of a lower manoeuvrability.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/node/228 Dev Update (16/07/2015)]</ref>

It boasts superior armour and shield strength in addition to one medium [[Hardpoint]] replacing one of the three small on the regular Eagle MkII. It is the third fastest ship in the game, with only the [[Cobra MkIII]] and the [[Imperial Clipper|Clipper]] being faster.

The weapon hardpoints are located as follows: a single medium hardpoint on the top of the ship behind the cockpit and two small ones mounted side-by-side on the underside of the main fuselage in front of the bump that contains the cargo scoop.

It epitomises elegance of form while packing a good punch. Officially the class is used to provide transport for officials that don't warrant the use of a Cutter or Interdictor. However its flexibility means that it fills many roles within the Imperial Navy and prominent citizens.|In-game description}}
The '''Imperial Courier''' is a fast multipurpose ship just barely larger than the Sidewinder. It is the third-lightest-hulled playable ship (after the Sidewinder and Hauler) thus far but its upgrades are heavier.

The Imperial Courier is armed and very well [[shield]]ed for its small size, making it a great and evasive fighter in combat. In terms of agility it ranks somewhere close to the [[Viper MkIII]]. While it has a good pitch rotation speed, its slightly weaker vertical-lateral thrusters cause the Courier to drift more than the Viper. Even though the Courier has the same top boost speed as Viper, due to its low hull mass relative to modules, it is slightly slower and can't boost as often as the Viper, dropping down from the top speed faster.

The Imperial Courier's shields are much better than the [[Viper MkIII]]'s and [[Cobra MkIII]]'s, being almost on par with those on a [[Vulture]]. Unlike the Vulture, the Imperial Courier does not have as severe of power management issues, and is thus better able to equip [[Shield Booster|shield boosters]] and [[Shield Cell Bank]]s.

The weapon hardpoints are located in the following places: 1 medium hardpoint at the front of each engine nacelle, and 1 medium hardpoint underneath the nose.

The design philosophy reflects Imperial sensibilities as it is faster and more elegant than the corvette, but doesn't quite match it in firepower. As with other Imperial warships the cutter is also used for projecting soft power, via diplomatic missions and support for friendly powers. It is possible, although rare, for a well connected client or patron to own one of these ships. Like the corvette it can deploy two small fighter class ships.|In-game description}}The '''Imperial Cutter''' is manufactured by [[Gutamaya]], and is the [[Empire|Imperial Navy's]] counterpart to the [[Federal Corvette]].<ref>"The Imperial Cutter fulfils a similar role as the corvette for the Imperial Navy" - http://inara.cz/galaxy-shipyard/75</ref>

The Imperial Cutter was added in the 1.5 "[[Ships (Update)|Ships]]" update in December, 2015.<ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=191898</ref>

The Cutter features 4 medium [[hardpoint]]s: 2 on the nacelles and 2 on the belly; 2 large hardpoints on top of the ship and 1 huge hardpoint on the chin. Notably, the exterior lights on the ship change color from blue to red once hardpoints are deployed.

With its 792T cargo capacity it has the largest cargo bay a playable ship can have, topping the Type-9 with 260T more cargo space, over 48% more space, while having significantly better shields and speed than the Type-9. This will make it the most logical choice for traders.

Unlike the Type-9, it is extremely well-shielded, very fast (though not maneuverable) for its size, and reasonably well-armed, giving it far greater survivability and allowing some limited use of it as a combat ship, especially in the piracy role. In addition, with plenty of internals available to mount mining accessories while still leaving the largest open for cargo holds, excellent speed for moving from asteroid to asteroid, and a sufficiency of class 2 weapon mounts, the Cutter is unquestionably the best mining ship yet.

Discovery Scanner

2015-03-19T22:10:26Z

37.201.240.85: /* Outfitters */

The Discovery Scanner is a unit that fits inside of a internal compartment and allows you to scan for unknown astronomical objects within a certain radius of your ship.

All vessels come with a basic discovery scanner fitted as standard however there are 3 levels of Discovery Scanners:
* Basic Discovery Scanner - Has a 500 LS range and costs 1,000 CR
* Intermediate Discovery Scanner - Has a 1,000 LS range and costs 505,000 CR
* Advanced Discovery Scanner - Has a system-wide range and costs 1,545,000 CR

== Usage ==
The Discovery Scanner needs to be assigned to a fire group and can be triggered in both super cruise and normal space. The assigned control to trigger the scanner must be held down in order to charge the unit. It will tell you when the scan is complete. In addition, if you pass extremely close to an astronomical body it will automatically discover the object.

As the basic/intermediate scanners have a limited range you will not necessarily find all the astronomical bodies by triggering it just once. (The advanced scanner will discover everything). You may need to scout the system to discover additional astronomical bodies. This can be achieved by traveling very fast (over 30c is best) and looking for moving objects from your side/top windows on the static backdrop. When you see moving objects, head towards them until you get them within the maximum range of your scanner and trigger it to discover them.

Once you discover the objects they will initially appear in your Navigation panel as "UNEXPLORED" (discovered but not scanned) and you will need to get close enough for your ship to automatically scan them to get further information. The distance you need to get to the object in order for the automatic scan to begin depends on its size. Stars may be automatically scanned from over 1,000 LS away but small moons may require you to be within 10 LS or even closer. Once you are close enough and have the "UNEXPLORED" object selected you will see it begin scanning and the name will eventually change from "UNEXPLORED" to a more appropriate name based upon its position in the system. You will also see further information on the body in the system map.

Although not necessary, it is beneficial to also have the [[Detailed Surface Scanner]] to maximise your profits as this gains additional information such as the atmosphere type and composition of the astronomical body. '''(You need both, not one or the other).'''

{{quote|The Vulture space superiority fighter sacrifices hardpoint flexibility for manoeuvrability. Advanced manufacturing techniques have allowed the Vulture to integrate large hardpoints into its relatively small frame, offsetting the ship's limited weapon count, but its nimble flight characteristics make it equally devastating against smaller targets. A limited cargo and passenger capability has not stopped it becoming a preferred personal transport for those who like to project a certain attitude in their dealings.|In-Game Description}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a dedicated heavy fighter. It flies much like a heftier [[Eagle]] in that its manoeuvrability is superb and its [[weapons]] pack a punch, but similar to the Eagle's drawbacks the Vulture can run into power issues and can be outrun by many other [[ships]]. Good at dogfighting; this ship can hold it's own, but many pilots will probably have a hard time fighting anything larger than a [[Python]].

{{quote|The Cobra MkIII is a classic all purpose ship found throughout human space. The model was first built in Lave Cowell & MgRath shipyard in Lave in 3100. Despite its age it remains a popular ship for lone pilots who value its balance of carrying capacity and ability in combat.|In-Game Description}}

The '''Cobra Mk. III''' is a larger and more popular version of the cobra Mk. I. It was first seen in service in 3100 AD, originally manufactured by Cowell & McGrath Shipyard, Lave. Since Cowell & McGrath's acquisition by Faulcon de Lacey it is now branded as an FdL made ship.

It is equipped with several special features, including Zieman Energy Deflection Shields, mountings for four ''Ingram'' '[[Pulse Laser]]s ', a ''Lance & Ferman'' Seek & Kill ''[[Missiles|missile system]]'', and Kruger "lightfast" motors from ''Irrikan ThruSpace''.

With its good-sized cargo hold the Cobra is a logical step on a trader's route to riches. It also has much better combat potential than the Lakon series of large freighters, making It a favourite of lone-wolf traders. What's more, it is an Ideal craft for a pirate to plunder the space lanes because of Its ample capacity for loot. A low heat signature also helps pirates, smugglers and others seeking to avoid the attentions of the authorities.

The downside of this ship is the combat ability relative to cheaper ships such as the Eagle or the Viper so the Cobra is only advisable for bounty hunters if they plan on taking up piracy in the near future or doing courier jobs along the way.
