The Challenger has an increased cargo capacity of 154t over the Chieftain's 122t. This makes the Challenger an adequate trader and Pirate as it is only outdone by the [[Federal Gunship]], [[Krait MkII]], [[Krait Phantom]] and [[Python]] for medium ship cargo capacity. It can also make a very good miner, as it has enough hardpoints for all Mining tools and decent cargo space. Its high hull strength and military compartments means it can easily defend itself without its shield as well.

The only real downside other than cost compared to Chieftain is its jump range, taking a significant dive to just under 24LYs before engineering. As the Challenger is a hull tanker, this will only drop lower when outfitting with armor, dropping into single digits.

Although the Challenger's upgrades come with a higher purchase price than the Chieftain, it is still substantially cheaper than a number of other medium vessels, such as the [[Federal Gunship]], [[Krait MkII]], [[Python]], and [[Fer-de-Lance]], while still being able to take on each of those ships in a firefight.
