Beluga Liner: Difference between revisions

Line 53:

As a [[Trader|trading]] ship, the Beluga has 368t of potential space. This is fairly poor for a large, expensive ship, only beating the capacity of the significantly cheaper [[Type-7 Transporter]] by 60 tonnes. Additionally, for only slightly more than the price of a Beluga Liner, a trader seeking a reliable ship for cargo runs can purchase the higher-capacity Type-9 Heavy. Overall, the Beluga is simply an inefficient choice for trading.

The Beluga Liner makes for an interesting option as an [[Explorer|Exploration]] vessel. With proper [[Engineers|Engineering]] and a [[Guardian Frame Shift Drive Booster]], its jump range tops out at 40-50 ly depending on what other modules it is carrying, but there are cheaper, less unwieldy ships to choose from that can achieve higher jump ranges. What makes the Beluga a decent contender as an explorer is its internal space and ability to equip a [[Fighter Hangar]], it can carry every essential exploration module, a number of non-essential ones, and still have room for modules that have less usefulness out in the black, such as [[Cargo Rack]]s. Not to be overlooked is the Beluga's open cockpit layout, which provides a wide, unobstructed view.
