{{quote|The Viper Mk III is the most recent development of the most successful fighter classes ever built.  The original Viper Defence Craft was designed by Faulcon Manspace in 2762 in the Reorte shipyards.  The basic model was beefed up with the Viper II by Faulcon deLacy.  The new Viper III is a revitalised model with a new more armoured look.  It is a top class fighter found in many well equipped police and naval forces.|In-Game Description}}

The '''Viper Mk. III''' made its first appearance in the game in Standard Beta 1. It is the main vessel used by station security forces and law enforcement, and is currently the fastest ship available to purchase. It is a highly effective combatant, with a turning rate comparable to that of the Sidewinder and the same weapon capacity as the [[Cobra Mk. III]]. This has resulted in a "run away from whatever you can't beat" ship which has been known (with sufficient skill) to defeat any other ship class released thus far in single combat.
