{{quote|The Viper Mk III is the most recent development of the most successful fighter classes ever built. The original Viper Defence Craft was designed by Faulcon Manspace in 2762 in the Reorte shipyards. The basic model was beefed up with the Viper II by Faulcon deLacy. The new Viper III is a revitalised model with a new more armoured look. It is a top class fighter found in many well equipped police and naval forces.|In-Game Description}} | {{quote|The Viper Mk III is the most recent development of the most successful fighter classes ever built.

The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' made its first appearance in the game in Standard Beta 1. It is a vessel used by [[station|Station]] security forces and law enforcement, and is currently one of the fastest [[ships]] available to purchase. It is primarily intended for combat; compared to the multi-role [[Cobra Mk. III]], it has the same weapons capacity, slightly stronger shields per shield class, slightly weaker hull, marginally slower turn rate, much faster strafe speed, faster speed under normal thrust and slower speed under boost. | The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' made its first appearance in the game in Standard Beta 1.

In addition to its official police/security role, the Viper's speed, range and combat capability make it ideal for [[Bounty Hunter|bounty hunters]], small-load [[courier]]s, [[Mercenary|mercenaries]] or [[smuggler]]s, while its small cargo capacity makes it a very poor choice for [[trader]]s, and a survivable but inadequately profitable platform for [[pirate]]s. | In addition to its official police/security role, the Viper's speed, range and combat capability make it ideal for [[Bounty Hunter|bounty hunters]], small-load [[courier]]s, [[Mercenary|mercenaries]] or [[smuggler]]s, while its small cargo capacity makes it a very poor choice for [[trader]]s, and a survivable but inadequately profitable platform for [[pirate]]s. | ||
