Krait Mk II: Difference between revisions

A variant of the Krait MkII, the [[Krait Phantom]], was later introduced that doubles down on the multipurpose qualities and speed of the design at the expense of firepower and armour. The Phantom has reconfigured internal compartments with less cargo capacity and gives up its Fighter Hangar, one Class 3 hardpoint, and one pilot's seat, but this also reduces its hull mass significantly to the benefit of speed, handling, and jump range. As such, while the Krait MkII remains the better choice for combat, [[Trader|trading]], and [[Miner|mining]], the Krait Phantom offers a streamlined alternative for [[explorer]]s or pilots who have no use for a Fighter Hangar.

The Krait MkII's three large hardpoints are mounted in a delta pattern on the vessel's dorsal surface, behind the cockpit. The two medium hardpoints are mounted on the underside of the front-most points of the hull, on either side of the cockpit and slightly forward.
