According to the developers, the Mandalay should outperform the Anaconda in terms of jump range.<ref name=":1">Frontier Unlocked #9 https://www.youtube.com/live/jn4vJmNCjqE?si=TCnCZD53YThv3zHZ</ref> The ship is also optimized for [[Frame Shift Drive (SCO)|SCO-capable frame shift drives]]; compared to the previous SCO-optimized ships, the [[Python Mk II]] and the [[Type-8 Transporter]], the Mandalay will have a lower overall top speed in SCO, but will be far more fuel efficient and easier to control.<ref name=":1" /> | |||
