Elite Dangerous narrative lead Ian Dingwall describes the ship: ''“You might think of the Krait Mk II as analogous to modern updates of the real-world Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Beetle,” “It’s a reimagining of a classic that connects conceptually and aesthetically with the ship from 1984s Elite, while offering enough innovation and quality to compete with contemporary rivals in Elite Dangerous. While the Mk II embodies the essence of the original, it’s very much its own ship." ''Senior designer Barry Clark said it'' “currently occupies a unique place among our ship roster and is very popular among players,”'' ''“The idea of a low-profile ship for Commanders flying dubious cargo was really cool to us, too.”'' ''“The Krait is a great all-round ship with a strong hull, powerful engines – which look super-cool – and a great load-out,”'' Clark continues. ''“It’s also less ‘conspicuous’, meaning it’s less likely to get scanned by the police compared to other ships of that size and class. It has significant straight line speed and power, as well as enough firepower to match the Python thanks to three large and two medium hardpoints. It has a really nice punch against a variety of ship types and sizes.”''<ref>[https://www.pcgamesn.com/elite-dangerous/elite-dangerous-beyond-chapter-two-cinematic Feast your eyes on the Krait Mk II in the latest Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter Two cinematic]
