The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a heavily armed and well-protected craft, boasting considerable ~~manoeuvrability~~ for its hulking size. Despite being exceptionally powerful and potentially useful in a variety of roles, the Python does suffer from exceptionally high operating costs, making it a potentially cost-prohibitive option for many pilots.

It is considered by some to be the most effective balance between firepower, ~~manoeuvrability~~, and protection currently available. In addition to being capable of holding its own against the larger [[Anaconda]] in a toe-to-toe frontal battle through its substantial protection and firepower, the {{PAGENAME}}''' '''is generally agile enough to comfortably deal with smaller fighter classes without having to rely on turret mounts.

The {{PAGENAME}} can also serve as a heavily armed freighter in that it can carry 284 T of cargo with a class 3 [[shield]] module fitted, or 292 T with no shield fitted, both of which is more cargo than the [[Type-7 Transporter]] can carry without shields fitted. Additionally, besides being able to carry more cargo while retaining shields, the {{PAGENAME}} can dock at [[Outpost]]s since it utilizes medium sized landing pads. However, the downside to trading with a {{PAGENAME}} is its higher repair/maintenance costs and its shorter jump range when fully loaded.

The weapon hard points are located as follows: 1 medium and 1 large hardpoint on the top of the ship slightly behind and on both sides of the cockpit for a total of 2 large and 2 medium on upper surface, and 1 large hardpoint on the underside of the ship about where the cockpit is located.
