Revision as of 04:57, 6 January 2016
The Viper MkIV, built by Faulcon DeLacy, is a fighter ship added to Elite Dangerous in the 1.5 Update. It is the successor to the Viper MkIII.[1]
At the EGX event David Braben said it "trades a bit of manoeuvrability and speed for better internals, but it's got the same hardpoint layout as the standard Viper".[2]
In Newsletter #92 it was stated that every Kickstarter beta backer or above will find a Viper MkIV docked at a starport for free.[3]
