The Vulture is a dedicated heavy fighter. It flies much like a heftier Eagle in that its maneuverability is superb and its weapons pack a punch, but similar to the Eagle's drawbacks the Vulture can run into power issues. Its worth noting that in the same way you first got out of you're sidewinder into an eagle, adder, hauler, or viper (if you got lucky) you spent 90% of the money you had on the ship and didn't have enough to outfit better systems or weapons. So saving up to 5.5Mill - 6Mill is a good idea, unless you want to be using pulse lasers for the first week of purchase.
Good at dogfighting, this ship can hold its own, but many pilots will probably have a hard time fighting anything larger than a Python.
