The '''Eagle MkII''' is a [[Ships|ship]] manufactured by [[Core Dynamics]]. As a proven [[combat]] fighter with a distinguished history, it is one of the smallest ~~fighters~~ available with [[Frame Shift Drive|jump]] capability. It has the distinction of being the only ship that has been so successful, versions have been built for both [[Federation|Federal]] and [[Empire|Imperial]] navies. This role has been superseded by the respective navies' short range fighter programs, but the Eagle still sees extensive service across human space. Though Core Dynamics are no longer building Eagle models, they still do provide parts and servicing due to their popularity.<ref>https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/elite-dangerous/images/0/07/Shipyard-Station.png/revision/latest?cb=20171113110240</ref>

The '''Eagle MkII''' is a [[Ships|ship]] manufactured by [[Core Dynamics]]. As a proven [[combat]] fighter with a distinguished history, it is one of the smallest, cheapest, and fastest ships available with [[Frame Shift Drive|jump]] capability. This comes at the cost of limited core internal modules, however, restricting its potential jump range and burdening it with [[heat]] and power management issues. Despite these drawbacks, it has the distinction of being the only ship that has been so successful that versions have been built for both the [[Federation|Federal]] and [[Empire|Imperial]] navies. This role has since been superseded by the respective navies' [[Ship-Launched Fighters|short range fighter]] programs, but the Eagle still sees extensive service across human space. Though Core Dynamics are no longer building Eagle models, they still do provide parts and servicing due to their enduring popularity. It is also one of the four vessels permitted in the [[CQC Championship]].<ref>[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/elite-dangerous/images/0/07/Shipyard-Station.png/revision/latest?cb=20171113110240 Eagle MkII In-Game Description (pre-September Update)]</ref>

Currently, it is the most manoeuvrable vessel on the market with the exception of [[Ship-Launched Fighters]], as well as the cheapest dedicated combat ship. The ship's small size and high speed come at the cost of limited core internal modules, however, restricting its potential jump range and burdening it with [[heat]] and power management issues. The Eagle MkII's strength lies in giving new pilots an inexpensive, combat-oriented alternative to the [[Sidewinder MkI]]. It is also one of the four vessels permitted in the [[CQC Championship]].
