What ships are there?

The game offers a vast range of ships to pilot, from tiny starfighters to massive freighters. All of the ships have their own pros and cons, and their own unique characteristics.

The ships come from 5 different corporations: Zorgon Peterson, Faulcon DeLacy, Saud Kruger, Core Dynamics and Gutamaya. In total there are, as of 2018, 33 different ships to fly!

What's the difference in the ships?

There are many different thing you can do in ELite: Dangerous, including mining, bounty hunting, piracy, trading, and a lot more. These ships are either good at some roles and horrible at others, or they are good at literally everything. Take the Type-7 Transporter for example. It is great at hauling cargo, with a huge cargo capacity, but you wouldn't take it to a pirate base and try to fight in it. Each company has different goals, and you see that in their ships. Saud Kruger's goal is to provide luxury without expense, while Faulcon DeLecy's goal is to provide superior firepower while having style and performance. You would pick your ships based on your role that you would have taken interest in, and you play the game to your ships strengths and abilities.
