{{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 its own, but many pilots will probably have a hard time fighting anything larger than a [[Python]].

Asp Explorer

{{quote|The Asp Explorer is the civilian version of the military model Asp Mk II's (which first saw service in 2878). 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}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' has a high jump range relative to other ships in the game and thus is quite good for use as an exploration ship. It has six weapon [[hardpoint]]s and has a good turning radius for its size which makes the Asp good for more than just exploration. The Asp can act as a heavy-duty bounty hunting vessel due to its superb weapon capacity and good manoeuvrability for its size. [[Pirate]]s can also use the Asp to great effect because of the ample cargo capacity, heavy armament, long jump range and large mass (allowing it to charge its own [[Frame Shift Drive]] with minimal mass disruption while also mass disrupting the frame shift drive of most [[ships]]).

The main downside of this ship is the high initial purchase cost and high maintenance costs. Many roles that the Asp fills can be fulfilled with cheaper ships. An example would be pirating which can be done in a [[Cobra Mk. III|Cobra]] whose purchase cost is approximately 5.7 million fewer credits while still having a moderate cargo capacity and threatening weapon armament. Another example would be trading which can be done in a [[Lakon Type-6 Transporter|Lakon Type-6]] that has nearly the same cargo capacity, and costs approximately 5 million fewer credits.
