Orca

The Orca is a large ship manufactured by Saud Kruger and is currently one of three known passenger ships, the others being the Beluga Liner and the Dolphin.

As a passenger ship, it and its two cousins, the Beluga Liner and the Dolphin are capable of carrying the luxury suite cabins which can transport VIP's.

It handles far better than its official maneuverability rating might indicate, with a remarkably high turn rate combined with high acceleration, and even--unlike the Imperial Clipper, with similar maneuverability--a very powerful strafing ability. Its large silhouette (easy target) and relatively limited hardpoint capacity hinder attempts to use it as a serious combat ship, but fully geared and in skilled hands it makes for an extremely hard target or dangerously effective pirate.

Notes Initially decals could not be fitted. Now they can and even some basic paint jobs are available (Vibrant pack, Tactical pack, and Military pack) The Orca sells for a 20% discount at Irkutsk in the Alioth system. (As Alioth is the political center of the Alliance, a system permit is required. Places to get such a permit include Rominger Dock in the 78 Ursae Majoris system. Look for the "Permit Acquisition Opportunity" job on the Mission Board. Be aware that you will need an allied reputation with the Alioth Independents faction in order to accept this job.) A 'fasten seatbelt' tone will sound in the cabin when using this ship's boost. According to the Newsletter #84, with 0.016% of players piloting it the Orca is the least popular ship in the game.
