The '''Cobra Mk. III''' is a larger and more popular version of the ~~cobra~~ Mk. I. It was first seen in service in 3100 AD, originally manufactured by Cowell & McGrath Shipyard, Lave. Since Cowell & McGrath's acquisition by Faulcon de Lacey it is now branded as an FdL made ship.

The '''Cobra Mk. III''' is a larger and more popular version of the Cobra Mk. I. It was first seen in service in 3100 AD, originally manufactured by Cowell & McGrath Shipyard, Lave. Since Cowell & McGrath's acquisition by Faulcon de Lacey it is now branded as an FdL made ship.

~~It is equipped with several special features~~, ~~including Zieman Energy Deflection Shields~~, ~~mountings~~ for ~~four ''Ingram''~~ '[[~~Pulse Laser~~]]s ', a ~~''Lance & Ferman'' Seek & Kill ''~~[[~~Missiles|missile system~~]]'', and ~~Kruger "lightfast" motors from ''Irrikan ThruSpace''~~.

The Cobra's carrying capacity, being more than double that of the [[Hauler]], and its cost, being almost one third that of the [[Lakon Type 6]], makes it a logical stepping stone for aspiring traders as there is no other ship capable of hauling more cargo at the Cobra's size and cost. In addition to its large cargohold it has much better combat potential than freighters and can oftentimes defend itself or run away from hostile [[interdiction]]s. What's more is that the Cobra is an ideal craft to plunder the space lines in for a [[pirate]] or [[smuggler]] due to the Cobra's ample capacity for loot, the ability to outrun any other ship currently released, and its relatively low heat signature.

With its good-sized cargo hold the Cobra is a logical step on a trader's route to riches. It also has much better combat potential than the Lakon series of large freighters, making It a favourite of lone-wolf traders. What's more, it is an Ideal craft for a pirate to plunder the space lanes because of Its ample capacity for loot. A low heat signature also helps pirates, smugglers and others seeking to avoid the attentions of the authorities.

The downside of this ship is the combat ability relative to other ships. For bounty hunters who are attempting to tackle skilled opponents the [[Cobra]] can be outmaneuvered by [[Eagle]]s and [[Viper]]s while being easily outgunned by [[Python]]s and [[Anaconda]]s.

The downside of this ship is the combat ability relative to ~~cheaper~~ ships ~~such as~~ the [[~~Eagle Mk. II|~~Eagle]] ~~or the~~ [[Viper ~~Mk_III|Viper~~]] ~~so the Cobra is only advisable for bounty hunters if they plan on taking up piracy in the near future or doing courier jobs along the way~~.
