Ship opinion

FAS is a great fighter. With fully loaded frags (1 drag, 1 corrosive, 2 incendiary) it can strip shields and hull away pretty quickly, and the CQC feel of the frags syncs well with ramming, which it has the hull to do frequently.

FGS is fun with full Dakka builds and a MC slf. Also seconds as a great pirating ship, with the hardpoints and cargo capacity to do the job well. It's slow, but has the hull and dps to get by.

FDS is drifty. It also drifts. And regardless if what people say, it can also drift from time to time. But I've had luck with 4 force shell cannons and a drag-munitions missile launcher / frag cannon. More of a meme build, but slamming a conda against an asteroid in a hazrez is in my top 5 memories of elite.

I say just get em. If you're curious now you'll be curious later. At least now they'll be cheaper, and credits are easy to come bt.

Federal assault ship is a fantastic murder box.

The FAS is basically a krait phantom with more armor and less jump range

FAS is no joke in the agility department. And, it's got the firepower the vulture doesn't. The gunship is neato, but it is niche these days. Butt tons of firepower and armor, plus a fighter. The krait has kind of eclipsed it, a bit more agile, better core parts and jump range.

Tx for all the Input. Yes curious I am... Looks like i have to snatch them all while they are cheaper. :)

FAS to me is another boring medium pvp ship (can you tell I don't pvp?). But FGS is where it's at, so many hardpoints, it really feels like you're flying the Rocinante
