'''Mk II Supercharge Optimised Frame Shift Drive (SCO)''' are improved FSD (SCO) that provide a greater range boost for hyperspace jumps after fuel scooping from the jet cones of white dwarf and neutron stars, of 200 and 500% respectively. They were apparently developed by [[Zorgon Peterson]] along with the [[Caspian Explorer]], the only ship on which they can be equipped.<ref name=":3">[https://www.elitedangerous.com/en-US/news/galnet/zorgon-peterson-unveils-caspian-explorer-vessel Zorgon Peterson Unveils Caspian Explorer Vessel - Galnet 02 Dec 3311] - Elite Dangerous website - 02 December 2025</ref> They were released on 02 December 3311 (2025), and are available in the 8A class rating only.<ref name=":4">[https://www.elitedangerous.com/en-US/UpdateNotes/4-3-0-0 Update Notes - v4.3.0.0 Caspian Explorer Update] - Elite Dangerous website - 02 December 2025</ref> Their published specs are identical to the regular 8A FSD (SCO) introduced at the same time, aside from the jump boost benefits, max fuel per jump, and purchase cost. | |||

* '''Frame Shift Drive (SCO)''' were originally added in Classes 2 to 7 only, similar to the non-SCO FSD that came before them. Class 8 was added to [[Elite Dangerous: Odyssey|''Elite Dangerous: Odyssey'']] in the v4.3.0.0 Caspian Explorer Update released on 02 December 2025, with the [[Caspian Explorer]] as the first ship capable of carrying a Class 8 hyperdrive. The '''Mk II Supercharge Optimised Frame Shift Drive (SCO)''' was added at the same time, and only in the 8A class rating.<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":4" /> | |||
