A prototype of something that is going to take a LOT longer to put together properly than I thought at first.
Remember the Nyx from Freelancer Discovery that I built?
This is another one of those ships, not a Nyx mind, another Freelancer Disco ship and rather more complex to build, I'm finding.
You could class this as an Interceptor, it is certainly fast enough. So much so that you will need to throttle back to be able to control it.
It has a high landing speed as well, so make good use of the retro's on landing (AG1 on/off).
Controls as normal.
Odd wing structure/s care of the original designer of the ship this is based on.
Tail fins added for control reasons, they do not exist on the original ship.
Added guns on account, plus counter measures.
No missiles, it might be too fast for missiles at full speed.

The original ship is the Marauder , a web page with a nifty rotating image of the beasty can be found behind the link.
.
The M Prototype only has a passing resemblance to that.
.
There are many, many other ships displayed in the same fashion, so if you run out of ideas, try making one of these!

Just kidding.
