The '''Anaconda''' is a ponderous yet highly versatile vessel that excels in multiple roles. At a cost of over 146 million [[Credits]], it is the third most expensive ship available, behind only the [[Federal Corvette]] and the [[Imperial Cutter]]. While the Federal Corvette is specialized for combat, and the Imperial Cutter is a multipurpose ship with exceptional cargo capacity, the Anaconda can be competitively adapted for combat or trading as necessary. It also currently has the highest potential jump range of all ships after [[Engineers|Engineering]], making it a superb choice for long-distance journeys. | The '''Anaconda''' is a ponderous yet highly versatile vessel that excels in multiple roles.

The Anaconda's bridge is located on the top of the ship roughly at its midpoint. The pilot's station is positioned at the center of the bridge, with 2 co-pilot seats on either side. The canopy offers a wide horizontal field of view (more than 180 degrees), however the canopy's widths are tapered off to either side, limiting vertical field of view. The ship's nose also obstructs view underneath the ship. In a combat scenario, 2 large hardpoints and 2 utility mounts are deployed directly in front of the bridge, which can obstruct the pilot's view when they fire | The Anaconda's bridge is located on the top of the ship roughly at its midpoint.

Boasting an array of weapon [[hardpoint]]s, the Anaconda is a formidable [[combat]] ship capable of holding its own against multiple opponents. It, the [[Fer-de-Lance]], the Federal Corvette, and the Imperial Cutter are the only [[ships]] capable of equipping the powerful Class 4 weaponry. The weapon hardpoint locations are as follows: Two Class 3 Large hardpoints top mounted side-by-side to each other in front of the cockpit and about 1/3 the ship length back from the front tip with slightly blocked aft line of sight. One Class 2 Medium hardpoint side mounted on each side near the front tip of the ship (2x Class 2 medium hardpoints total) with decent lines of sight. One Class 3 Large hardpoint mounted on the underside of the ship, near the tip of the ship, with somewhat blocked aft line of sight. One Class 4 Huge hardpoint mounted on the underside of the ship at about 1/3 of the ship length back from the front tip, mounted slightly lower than the underside class 3 hardpoint, with nearly uninterrupted forward and below lines of sight and somewhat blocked aft lines of sight. Two Class 1 Small hardpoints mounted on the underside of the ship, side-by-side to each other, at the very back of the rectangular Cargo bay area, with nearly uninterrupted lines of sight in all underside directions but have limited firing arc convergence with the top mounted hardpoints, namely in front of the ship. As of the release of [[Elite Dangerous: Horizons|Horizons]]: Guardians it became one of the eight ships compatible with [[Fighter_Hangar|fighter hangar]] module for docking [[Ship-Launched_Fighters|ship-launched fighters]]. | Boasting an array of weapon [[hardpoint]]s, the Anaconda is a formidable [[combat]] ship capable of holding its own against multiple opponents.

Overall the Anaconda is ideal for veteran pilots of all trades who have a large sum of credits at their disposal but don't have high rankings with either of the superpowers. The only downsides of the ship are its sub par speed and maneuverability, as well as the cost to upgrade and maintain the ship: prices for less essential modules will easily exceed 1 million credits, whereas more important modules are priced in the tens or hundreds of millions of credits each. The repair fees for the Anaconda are also relatively high, since repair costs are calculated based on the purchase price of the ship and its modules. It is usually cheaper to repair an Anaconda's modules using an Auto Field-Maintenance Unit. | Overall the Anaconda is ideal for veteran pilots of all trades who have a large sum of credits at their disposal but don't have high rankings with either of the superpowers.

Due to the Hatch location it can also be difficult to get the SRV in the correct position to board, transfer cargo, etc. | ||
The Anaconda has an available 16 piece cosmetic [[Ship Kit#Ship Kits|Ship Kit]] that can be purchased from the [https://www.frontierstore.net/usd/game-extras/elite-dangerous-game-extras/anaconda-ship-kit-16-pieces.html Frontier store] which allows you to "remodel your ship in your personal style".
