 There are two important matters to consider when buying a new ship: how many energy banks are there - and how quickly do they recharge? The Cobra MkIII is one of the best ships available in the [[Vanilla game]] in this respect. It is excelled in both number and recharge rate only by the police [[Viper Interceptor]]. The [[Escape Pod]] is the worst (one energy bank, slow recharge). See the '''OoliteRS.pdf''' (Reference Sheets) which came in your original game download: it contains details of the other Vanilla game ships with these details.

 ''[[What Spaceship?]]'' featured an article in the last edition about developments at a Naval research base, based on various stolen papers. Said papers were delivered anonymously to the editors of WS?. Judging from the usually airtight security at the Naval base in question, the thieves must have been professionals (possibly insiders)? The motivation behind the 'donation' is unknown the to WS?. editorial team "Maybe they were Starship Otaku" quipped Matt Yellow, an amphibian reporter of WS?.
 According to the specs ''What Spaceship?'' mentions, this [[Naval Energy Unit]] is far superior in efficiency to current high-end civilian energyflux-rechargers.
 Navy officials were not available for comments.
