The Corsair is a medium ship produced by Gutamaya.[1] It's a successor to the Imperial Clipper.[2] Imperial Navy rank is not required.[2] It is ONLY available for ARX as of 8 April 2025.[2]

Overview

The Corsair has a relatively large maximum cargo capacity, very strong hardpoint selection, and size 7 thrusters.[1] It's designed to do all three main roles equally.[1] As a multipurpose ship, it is thus superior to the Python.[2]

The ship has blue neon strip lights that highlight the shape of the hull, and minimal heat vents that fit inside the ship.[1] The cockpit is similar to the Imperial Courier with an extra seat.[2]

The Corsair has a mass lock factor of 7, which is unusually low for a ship of its size. This places the Corsair's mass locking ability on par with much smaller ships such as the Adder or Imperial Courier. It's currently unclear whether or not this is an oversight by the developers.

Development

The Corsair was unveiled during a Frontier Unlocked livestream on 26 February 2025.[1] As previous medium SCO native ships covered Combat, Trading and Exploration (in the Python Mk II, Type-8 and Mandalay respectively), the Corsair represents the first new multi-purpose medium ship.
