{{Quote|The Imperial Cutter fulfils a similar role | {{Quote|The Imperial Cutter fulfils a similar role to the Corvette for the Imperial Navy. The design philosophy reflects Imperial sensibilities as it is faster and more elegant than the Corvette, but doesn't quite match it in firepower. As with other Imperial warships the Cutter is also used for projecting soft power, via diplomatic missions and support for friendly powers. It is possible, although rare, for a well connected client or patron to own one of these ships. Like the Corvette, some models can deploy two small fighter sized ships, although civilian models are restricted to one.|In-game description}} | ||
The '''Imperial Cutter''', manufactured by [[Gutamaya]], is the [[Empire|Imperial Navy's]] counterpart to the [[Federal Corvette]],<ref>"The Imperial Cutter fulfills a similar role as the corvette for the Imperial Navy" - http://inara.cz/galaxy-shipyard/75</ref> and requires an [[Empire/Ranks|Imperial Navy rank]] of Duke in order to be purchased. With a base cost of almost 209 million credits, it is the most expensive ship in ''[[Elite Dangerous]]'', exceeding the combat-specialized Federal Corvette and the multipurpose [[Anaconda]]. The Imperial Cutter is also currently the second largest playable ship, behind only the [[Beluga Liner]]. | The '''Imperial Cutter''', manufactured by [[Gutamaya]], is the [[Empire|Imperial Navy's]] counterpart to the [[Federal Corvette]],<ref>"The Imperial Cutter fulfills a similar role as the corvette for the Imperial Navy" - http://inara.cz/galaxy-shipyard/75</ref> and requires an [[Empire/Ranks|Imperial Navy rank]] of Duke in order to be purchased.
