Overview

Small, highly maneuverable short range 'hunter-killer', the Viper was specifically designed for GalCop Space Policing purposes by Faulcon Manspace and are built under licence on all Medium Tech worlds. The Viper is a single pilot craft, but can carry up to ten humanoid passengers. It has no cargo space, but has a "tug" capability, and can tow a ship of up to 140,000 MTS mass (including the Cobra Mk III). This popular ship is also carried by large freighter convoys, for defensive purposes.
