Overview

Manufactured by the Perez Corporation the Merlin is a rather commonplace light fighter in the Alliance and Federation. Often pilots will purchase this as a second ship, it is slightly better than the Saker Mk 3 in almost all respects.

Notable Features

Disadvantages

Verdict

It is not the fastest light fighter out there, but offers decent space for its class. You might find it useful for fast courier missions. Watch out for gangs of these birds attacking you simultaneously!
