The '''Beluga Liner''' is a passenger ship included in the upcoming [[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]] 2.2 update.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA_FcXnyV5Q Elite Dangerous patch 2.2 - aliens, space stations & more | Gamescom 2016], 2016-08-17</ref> Comparable to an [[Anaconda]] in size, the Beluga is designed to carry passengers to their destination in comfort; only it and its smaller cousin the [[Orca]] can be equipped with Luxury Suite Cabin modules, allowing it to transport VIPs. Slow and cumbersome, the Beluga is difficult to maneuver inside a dock, but features a Class 7 [[Frame Shift Drive]] and a massive fuel tank that give it an immense travel range for long-distance cruises. | The '''Beluga Liner''' is a passenger ship included in the upcoming [[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]] 2.2 update.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA_FcXnyV5Q Elite Dangerous patch 2.2 - aliens, space stations & more | Gamescom 2016], 2016-08-17</ref> Comparable to an [[Anaconda]] in size, the Beluga is designed to carry passengers to their destination in comfort; only it and its smaller cousin the [[Orca]] can be equipped with Luxury Suite Cabin modules, allowing it to transport VIPs.

As a specialised Passenger Liner the Beluga has multiple module slots that can accommodate all types of passenger cabins. | ||
Well armoured, and decently quick for such a large civilian ship, the Beluga has a similar speed to the Hauler. When escorting passengers across the galaxy you’ll need defence, so the Beluga has 6 utility mounts and 5 medium hardpoints. The Beluga has plenty of mid-range sized internal slots (4 threes, 1 four, 2 fives and 4 sixes). The Beluga can fit a size 7 FSD, but it’s a very heavy ship so it’s more suited for multiple jumps rather than giant leaps.|From Gamescon 2016 Day One Complete Thread dev post}} | |||
