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 '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a fast multipurpose ship just barely larger than the Sidewinder, it is the second-lightest-hulled playable ship thus far but its upgrades are heavier.

The {{PAGENAME}} is armed, [[shield]]ed and armoured well beyond what would be expected for its size in compensation, acting like a medium-heavy fighter in combat. In terms of agility it ranks somewhere between the much more powerful [[Fer-de-Lance]] and the longer-ranged [[Diamondback Explorer]], falling well short of the [[Vulture]], [[Sidewinder]] or [[Eagle]].

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

{{quote|Cannons are better equipped to punch through the hull of larger and more robust ships compared to other weapons of similar size.|In-Game Description}}

A '''cannon''' is a projectile based weapon that fires a large caliber round very similar to a current day howitzer. It uses ammunition and therefore will need to be replenished every so often although your ship is capable of carrying a very large amount of reserve ammunition making restocking not a constant priority. The cannon fires explosive shots that detonate on impact, dealing considerable damage to the targeted subsystem and the systems around it.

Due to the similarities between the cannon and the plasma accelerator, the cannon is the perfect weapon for people who cannot afford a 834k accelerator. Although the ammunition price is the same at about 200 credits per shot.

Currently the cannon is available in all three forms of fixed, gimballed and turreted versions.

==Munitions==
Spent ammunition must be replenished once used. Any station 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.
