{{quote|The Fer-de-Lance is another classic design that has now been in production for two centuries. The ship became famous for its popularity with top business executives and wealthy bounty hunters, being a fast, well armed vessel, with luxurious accommodation and high quality components fitted as standard. Early models were built by Zorgon Peterson, but more recently, limited numbers have been upgraded by Saud Kruger in a rare collaboration, resulting in even more lavish creations, without spoiling the original design and specification requirements.|In-Game Description}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a heavy combat ship that handles almost identically to the [[Viper Mk III]] despite being much larger, but has improved weapons capacity, slightly less severe power management issues, and much better shields and armour. The {{PAGENAME}}'s hull is a bit more resistant to smaller [[weapons]] than other ships of its class.<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=120789&p=1873136&viewfull=1#post1873136 Sandro Sammarco in the Official Forums]</ref>

The {{PAGENAME}} and the [[Anaconda]] are the only two [[ships]] capable of mounting the class 4 [[Plasma Accelerators|Plasma Accelerator]].
