Thanks Ric for showing it off and especially for the test drive in SCO. The fuel efficiency is crazy. With that SCO A drive, it looks to be able to cover approximately 10 million l/s in a single run if fully kitted out for fuel (406 tons). If you felt generous with your time and covered a run with a B rated drive, I'd watch the hell out of that!

I noticed how fast the charging of the frameshift drive was "out of the box" compared to say a python. I'm getting one of those next week for sure. EDIT: I'm going to get the standard one though, I have the credits to make it an A and I always fly without guns, so lighter and more Ly range. Sometimes without shield so I don't really need the stellar. If I want a paint job, I'll use the arx that I saved buying the standard

Could use it as an universal miner, but only 1 medium hardpoint limits that - seismic has to be medium and small subsurface launcher has way too small magazine - and only 2 small mining lasers would be too little even for a multi-miner. I would probably make it "everything but core" miner: Medium subsurface, an abrasion blaster and 3 mining lasers: 2 lances and 1 pre-engineered mining laser that I already have. With a carrier, I have no need for a medium mining ship, tho.

@@user_16309 As a multi-discipline miner, I love the Type-10. It has enough hardpoints for all the mining tools and couple left over for defence. Fully engineered it can keep up with any spinning asteroid too. If you are just laser mining, the Cutter is considered gold standard for that and Type-9 will also do fine. For mediums, Python is considered a great mining ship for a long time and this Type-8 can be similar. If you want to go little cheaper, Asp Explorer can be decent now that we have the multi-limpet controller. If you are just starting out, maybe something like Type-6 or Keelback could do, I don't know.

Thanks for showcase, I will have definetly this ship in hangar and maybe I will use it as longrange freighter/courier and my old Krait will reamin as combat ship. Until now it was doing everything perfectly (bit engineered) but this ship looks promising. But I dont know if I will buy it for ARX and I found two things which I dont like about it: name-again Transporter? And second: engine nacelle extension looks kinda simplified-no details around it and even on hull any detailing or hull change where are pylons. I know that it is back of ship which wont be seen too much but come on

So... what's the point of this ship? Sure, it looks decent, but like all small and medium ships, they are outclassed by large ships. The only sensible role is merely exploration. Cutter is just better than the type 8 in almost every way. The speed is only useful for combat, so it's pointless for Type 8. In summary, Type 8 doesn't just really add anything of value to the game in comparison to the current roster of ships. It just does every role worse.
