To sustain a supercruise overcharge for a longer period of time, any unoptimized ship needs to equip [[Heatsink Launcher|heat sink launchers]] and carry [[Fuel Tank|fuel tanks]] in its optional slots. Some SCO optimized ships might need those too, but some ship and module configurations do not need heat sink launchers and can carry enough fuel to use SCO over substantial distances. | To sustain a supercruise overcharge for a longer period of time, any unoptimized ship needs to equip [[Heatsink Launcher|heat sink launchers]] and carry [[Fuel Tank|fuel tanks]] in its optional slots.

=== Ships | === Outfitting === | ||
Unlike standard Frame Shift Drives, only a full size Frame Shift Drive (SCO) is compatible with a ship's given Frame Shift Drive component slot. Using a lower class Frame Shift Drive (SCO) than the highest the ship can equip is not possible, producing an Incompatible Slot error. | |||
=== Hyperspace Fuel Equation === | |||
The Frame Shift Drive (SCO) use the same equation for hyperspace jumps as standard Frame Shift Drives, however the linear constant for drive rating uses different values. | |||

E-rated SCO Frame Shift Drives match the jump range of a C-rated Sirius FSD, while C and B ratings match an A-rated Sirius FSD. The D and A ratings offer greater jump range than an A-rated Sirius FSD for different reasons; the D rating has a lower mass (except for class 2D), while the A rating has a higher optimised mass and max fuel per jump stats. | |||
== Ships designed for SCO == | |||
Ships designed from the ground up to utilize Supercruise Overcharge offer better handling, lower heat generation, less fuel consumption, and faster acceleration and deceleration while SCO is active. These ships are listed below. | Ships designed from the ground up to utilize Supercruise Overcharge offer better handling, lower heat generation, less fuel consumption, and faster acceleration and deceleration while SCO is active.
