The older blueprint showed it as such, many years ago as well as Gamecom reveal from about that same point in time. But everything past that has displayed it as Faulcon - from the Frontier paint store to the ingame description
Whether Frontier changed their minds or misspoke originally, who is to say. Personally, the Taipan literally has the heat vents and the off-colored patchwork plating from other Lakon ships - but it has the internal handlebars, orange internal striping, and black bumpy leather interior of the DeLacy brand. I'd wager it was a cooperation between the two companies with Lakon producing the exterior and DeLacy the interior.
May explain why Frontier started it as Lakon and changed it later.
