Overview

Manufactured by Zorgon Petterson Group, in service 3112. From EliteA.

Old Ships 2010 Version

Monitor Industries bought the Monitor Trademark in 3114 after Zorgon Petterson Group was not interested anymore in selling the ship. Sources within the company said this was due to a bad marketing strategy. Problem with the ship was its speed. Only a creeping 0.18 LM. Monitor industries lowered some prices and also brought down the production costs resulting in a more competitive position within the market. Its strong selling points are of course the large cargo space and the 6 energy banks and with 5 pylons a commander can make it as a good weapon platform too.

3115 Ooship central TV review=

Ooship central TV did a Holobroadcast about the Monitor in Early 3115. In a test it came out better than a Python in some aspects. The presenter praised it many uses in combination with pylon based equipment. It's weak points remained it's speed. Even with injectors you just outrun a missile. The ship was given 3 out of 5 stars. Which is a decent score.
