The '''Anaconda''' is a large [[Ships|ship]] produced by [[Faulcon DeLacy]]. A ponderous yet highly versatile vessel that excels in multiple roles, the Anaconda was originally produced by RimLiner Galactic and debuted in 2856. It's one of the most iconic vessels since the original debuted in [[Elite|Elite (1984)]].<ref name=":0">[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/september-2026-dev-log-law-disorder-first-details-anaconda-mk-ii-revealed September 2026 Dev Log | Law & Disorder First Details & Anaconda Mk II Revealed] - 24 September 2026 - Elite Dangerous</ref>
 
== History ==
The '''Anaconda''' is currently the largest ship that is able to be piloted by a player in [[Elite: Dangerous]]. Boasting an array of weapon [[hardpoint]]s this ship is a formidable [[combat]] ship capable of holding its own against multiple opponents. It and the [[Fer-de-Lance]] are currently the only [[ships]] capable of equipping the powerful Class 4 [[Plasma Accelerator]]s. Some [[trader]]s also make use of this ship due to its high jump range, enormous cargo capacity (Surpassed only by the [[Lakon Type-9 Heavy]]), and superb defensive capabilities. The only downside is the cost to upgrade and maintain the ship. prices for modules will easily exceed 10 million credits at the cheapest.
The Anaconda was first produced by RimLiner Galactic and debuted in 2856. It's also one of the most iconic vessels of [[Elite|Elite (1984)]].<ref name=":0" /> The blueprint eventually came into Faulcon DeLacy's possession after several mergers. Only minor changes were made to the classic design.
 
=== The Big Three ===
==Purchase Locations==
It was considered by the independent pilot community as one of "The Big Three". It was the third, most expensive ship on the market behind the [[Federal Corvette]] and the [[Imperial Cutter]]. However, the release of the [[Panther Clipper Mk II]] and [[Caspian Explorer]] moved it to fifth place. The Federal Corvette is specialized for combat, the Imperial Cutter is a multirole ship with exceptional cargo capacity, while the Anaconda is a jack-of-all-trades. It's competitively adaptable for [[combat]], [[Miner|mining]], [[Trader|trading]], or [[Explorer|exploration]]. The Anaconda serves as a light cruiser or frigate in some navies. It has one of the highest potential jump ranges after [[Engineers|engineering]], making it a popular choice for long-distance journeys. DeLacy launched the reimagined successor, [[Anaconda Mk II]], on 20 October 3312.<ref>[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/elite-dangerous-october-dev-log-2026-law-disorder Elite Dangerous: October Dev Log 2026 | Law & Disorder] - 14 October 2026</ref>
 
== Overview ==
The Anaconda offers a highly generalized hull and internal layout, which allows it to be adapted for a wide variety of roles, including exploration, trading, mining, and combat operations.
 
[[File:Convergence anaconda.png|thumb|250px|Anaconda hardpoints convergence]]
The vessel is equipped with a total of eight [[Hardpoint]]s. A single Huge hardpoint is located on the ventral side of the hull, positioned alongside one Large hardpoint. The two Small hardpoints are also on the ventral side, but further back. Two additional Large hardpoints are situated on the dorsal hull, while two Medium hardpoints are mounted on the port and starboard sides. Additionally, the Anaconda possesses eight utility mounts and it supports the installation of a [[Fighter Hangar]] to deploy [[Ship-Launched Fighters]].
 
The Anaconda's bridge is located on the top of the ship roughly at its midpoint. The pilot's seat is positioned in the centre of the bridge, with one co-pilot seat to the right and two more on the left. The [[Ship Canopy|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 the view underneath the ship. In a combat scenario, two Class 3 hardpoints and two utility mounts are deployed directly in front of the bridge, which can obstruct the pilot's view when they fire. Turreted weapons have special mounts that will obscure your view further.
 
A defining characteristic of the Anaconda is its notably low base hull mass relative to its overall size. This structural trait, when combined with specific modules and engineering selections, affords it one of the highest potential jump ranges of any ship, making it a prominent choice for deep-space [[Explorer#Ships|exploration]] and long-haul travel. Its bulk restricts it to large landing pads however, and has low manoeuvrability in both normal space flight<ref>[https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UKvWx-Po1erSwAFomEpSJvB5vRbYn_A2t0T9lNhMst0/htmlview Ship agility statistics (Google Docs)]</ref> and [[supercruise]]<ref>[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/supercruise-handling-of-ships.396845/ Supercruise handling]</ref>.

==Gallery Notes ==
* The Anaconda is somewhat unusual in that it features two [[Cargo Hatch]]es; the primary Cargo Hatch is located towards the front of the vessel, whilst the secondary is located towards the rear of the vessel, behind the Fighter Bay. The forward/primary Hatch is used to manually scoop items from space and to deploy [[SRV]]s, whilst the rear/secondary Hatch is used by [[Limpet Controller/Collector|Collector Limpets]] when retrieving canisters or materials; when the Cargo Scoop is toggled, only the forward/primary Hatch will be lowered.
* Due to the location of the Cargo Hatch on the Anaconda, deploying an SRV will cause the SRV to fall the distance to the ground, or in the case of boarding will cause the SRV to float upwards. Due to the Hatch location, it can also be difficult to get the SRV in the correct position to board, transfer cargo, etc. and using the handbrake may be necessary on uneven terrain.
* Prior to a patch, the Anaconda's Cargo Hatch would open directly in front of one of its lower hardpoints, causing clipping issues.
* The Anaconda is the only ship in the game to visually show damage to its hull, with pieces of its armour coming off and more damage being shown as its hull health lowers. This is purely cosmetic.
* When using a [[Standard Docking Computer]] or [[Advanced Docking Computer]] at [[Starport]]s, the ventral side of the Anaconda will sometimes brush against the entrance slot. This does not appear to cause any damage even if shields are not equipped.
* An [[Anaconda Graveyard]] is located on HD 76133 (Elysium's Rest) ~ Planet 1 C ~ 23.488 / 81.934 ~ 0.18G. There is also an Anaconda [[Shipwreck]] turned into a base on HR 5906 AB.
