Ship Build Purpose
Build Description
I use for long range exploration trips and general use around the galaxy. Great for courier/planetary missions, as it has an SRV. Nice long jump range and can get just about anywhere in the bubble in 3 jumps max.
Pros and Cons
Long Range Diamondback Explorer, 61LY range with G5 Long-Range FSD. Super lightweight and cheap, the only grinding needed is mats for engineering. Also has an Auto-repair unit and SRV. Only has 14t of cargo, but should be enough if you’re only exploring.
