The main differences are that the Krait is cheaper and has one less Class 6 internal compartment, lower armour, lower hull mass, three pilot seats for [[Multicrew]] instead of two, and the ability to carry a Class 5 or 6 [[Fighter Hangar]] for [[Ship-Launched Fighters]]. While the Python wins out in total cargo capacity and armour, the Krait's other characteristics make it a faster, more agile ship with a higher jump range potential and excellent combat utility for its price. | ||
The Krait's three large hardpoints are mounted in a delta pattern on the vessel's dorsal surface, behind the cockpit. The two medium hardpoints are mounted on the underside of the front-most points of the hull, on either side of the cockpit and slightly forward. | The Krait's three large hardpoints are mounted in a delta pattern on the vessel's dorsal surface, behind the cockpit.
