Overview

The Anaconda launched in 2856 so a successor was long-overdue 456 years later. It is FSD SCO compatible for faster intra-system flying. It has more large hardpoints than the original.^[2] The Mark II is significantly more refined.^[3] The hull is flattened, but longer and a wider wedge shape of the stern section.^[3] The raised bridge improves the bridge's visibility like an aircraft carrier's island.^[3] The bridge has 4 pilot seats for multicrew. The center of the top hull runs like a trench to the bow. The middle of the bow was removed to improve the view from the bridge. The two prongs resemble a Farragut-Class Battle Cruiser. Between the prongs is 1 huge hardpoint (Class 4).^[4] It also has 4 large hardpoints (Class 3).^[4] It has new broadly spaced legs for stable landing on planets. The stern has 4 large thrusters with vectoring flaps. Below the hull is a large ramp that opens towards the bow.
