You can join other ships as a [[hologram]] via [[multicrew]]. However, walking inside ships is currently unavailable. All ships are designed with interiors in mind and for future gameplay opportunities. Nearly all ships and [[station]]s are fitted with [[GalNet]] for [[Market Economy|market]] information, galactic news and communication.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20200517111759/https://us2.campaign-archive.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=f72c0f91b2 Elite Dangerous Newsletter #22]</ref><ref>Tourist Spot 0249, "Pilots Federation's Near Monopoly"</ref>

Small automated ships that have largely been phased out due to the existence of effective counter-measures. The closest setting-modern analogue would be [[Limpet Controller|Limpets]], which are used almost purely for logistical/support tasks such as field repairs rather than direct combat, though some can be used for sabotage.
== Ship rebalance ==
The [https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/updates/4-4-2-0 Anaconda MK II Update] rebalanced many ships on 20 October 2026.<ref name=":8">[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/updates/4-4-2-0 Elite Dangerous: Anaconda MK II Update] - 20 October 2026</ref> These are the Asp Scout, Federal Dropship, Imperial Clipper, Type 6, Type 7, Viper Mk IV, Sidewinder, Eagle, Caspian, and Mandalay. Senior Game Designer Curtis Griffiths said: ''"As more ships come out and we get to observe how they fit into the existing line up we sometimes notice that certain ships haven’t been quite taken as far as they probably need to go. As such we, wanted to take the opportunity when introducing the Anaconda MK II to explore some changes to some older ships which mean a lot to many Commanders, but were in need of newfound purpose."''<ref name=":8" /> ''"Some of these changes are on the smaller side, where others are quite extensive. Our objective was to help bring these ships back into consideration for Commanders, even if it’s just as a viable intermediate ship for newer players as they are progressing through our roster of vessels. The buzz of finding yourself at the controls of a new ship is something which we know brings a thrill, and we want to recapture that to provide more options."''<ref name=":8" />
