— In-Game Description
The Caspian Explorer is a large exploration ship produced by Zorgon Peterson. The ship was announced on 4 November 2025 and is planned for early access for ARX in December 2025.[1]
Overview
The Caspian Explorer hull design has a saucer-shaped, low profile with 6 main engine exhausts, 4 of which are on 2 movable nacelles on either side of the ship that retract and extend laterally.[1] The cockpit has a large open glass view.
It will permit use of some new Mk II modules, including a new Mk II Frame Shift Drive with additional neutron star supercharge capability.[1]
