As a Saud Kruger ship, it is capable of carrying luxury suite cabins exclusive to this brand. Since this ship is not intended for combat or exploration, its class 6 internal compartment and one class 5 internal compartment are limited in what modules can be installed: only [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Cargo_Rack cargo racks], [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Passenger_Cabin passenger cabins], or [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Hull_Reinforcement_Package hull reinforcement packages] or [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/module_Reinforcement_Package module reinforcement packages] may be installed. | ||
Where officially its maneuverability is slightly better than an [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Anaconda Anaconda] and worse than a Beluga Liner, in practice the Orca handles far better than this rating suggests. It has a remarkably high turn rate and high acceleration, and even--unlike the [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Imperial_Clipper Imperial Clipper], which has similar maneuverability--a very powerful strafing ability. However, its relatively small power plant and limited hardpoint capacity prevents it from becoming a great combat ship. Nevertheless the Orca is dangerous indeed in the hands of a skilled pilot and is not to be underestimated. | Where officially its maneuverability is slightly better than an [http://elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Anaconda Anaconda] and worse than a Beluga Liner, in practice the Orca handles far better than this rating suggests.
