Anaconda: Difference between revisions

Statistically speaking, the Anaconda is the single best exploration ship in the game. With a staggering jump range of 4171.45lys38 lys before engineering, it can easily jump massive distances. What puts it above ships like [[Diamondback Explorer]] is its larger optional internal capacity (allowing more freedom in terms of AFMUs and SRVS) and its ludicrous jump range, topping out at 84lys if every possible measure is taken to maximize its range. It has a large supply of internal compartments as well and can also equip very small shields, letting explorers take along a bit of protection from bumps and scratches. Its large fuel tank and ability to fit a Class 7 [[Fuel Scoop]] top it off as an impressive vessel for exploration. However, the Diamondback Explorer has slightly better range without engineering, as well as a much lower price and rebuy, and a much smaller footprint for landing in rough terrain. Some [[trader]]s make use of the Anaconda due to its high jump range and decent cargo capacity; however, at only 468T of cargo, it is surpassed by several other large ships such as Lakon's [[Type-9 Heavy]] & [[Type-10 Defender]], the [[Federal Corvette]], and the [[Imperial Cutter]], making it the least effective ship in its price range.
