Yes, but you understand if the only people flying gimbals are keyboard users, everyone who chooses to do something else chooses the consequences of that decision. We all know gimbals will point faster than ships, and some ships like the Vanguard rotate too slowly to dogfight, so if you choose...

I like the Radar/Stealth version (RN) but I don't immediately see the difference between it and the Ursa. It is slightly shorter, slightly narrower, holds the same 2 people and weighs 1/6 as much. Not sure that is a selling point unless it will fit in things like the Hoplite where the Ursa...

Yeah. . .I am hoping to trade the UEE a Vanduul Void Bomber for a wing of F8s. 6 should be enough. Well maybe not. . .

. . .is? How would I know? But just to nudge us into a friendly ruckus, I will own I think it may be the Hurricane. Sure you need to fly defensive, but it will be more nimble than the Hornet. Basically it is a light fighter with the weapons loadout past a heavy fighter. So just saying, the...

Have you flown the Ghost Tracker combo? And what weapons do you prefer?

So you use the keyboard for everything except pointing the gun, which is done with the mouse? And have you flown the Vanguard with the chin gun on swivel this way?

So who is flying a fighter with main weapons on gimbal and how are they doing it?

I thought the Bucky was supposed to have an S4 mount below, that could carry some fabled piratical "interdiction" weapon for pulling ships from jumpspace. What happened with that?

No one is using a gaming controller? Seems to me this adds enough buttons that you can fly the gimbal, and IIUC, is what USAF uses for their drones. Can't be all bad. If you put strafe up, down, left and right on the four buttons under your index fingers, left stick to fly and right stick to...

If you don't love flying evasive and just want to bring heavy DPS, you should try the various Vanguards. They are the only fighter that can carry an S5 weapon (like that way big friggin' laser with higher range than any other gun). Personally I would prefer a pair of S4 ballistic cannon for...

If that's what you like, the Hornet is going to be very hard to beat. You might like the Vanguard as well, and it offers extended range, which though something you won't see the benefit from right away, will matter a great deal in the PU. Same with the Banu Defender. I think it has 2 more...

I am still hooked on the idea of a pair of S4 mounts. Since finding the Hornet does not offer this, I am looking with renewed favor on the Hurricane. The stock turret is kinda fun (place for 4 Jokers?), and if it can mount a Tracker, and the skin can be covered in Void Armor, those two S4...

Yes, but we revere smugglers here. Smuggling in your own high-octane booze is indicated.

Fly it before you buy it. There are plenty of people who will loan you one. I was recently shocked to find that the ships page is completely wrong about how it is loaded, and it does NOT carry a pair of S4 mounts. It is fast enough and maneuverable enough to hang in a dogfight. It can take...

It is. This is just too amazingly cool and no one can pull this off better than Disney! In a few weeks I expect to be moving to the Space Coast, just about 1 hour from Disney. I may have to go live in this hotel forevermore...

Still, it is disappointing it does not have the pair of S4 wing mounts stated on the ships page. CIG needs to fix this. People are paying for all sorts of ships that they have misrepresented, and it is not that much time to fix this stuff. One employee could do it in one day.

I was looking at a vid, discussing the Hornet Ghost-Tracker combination: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wfv-bjaV3j8 and though this does not really answer questions about IR (dependent upon weapons loadout) and Radar Cross Section (which should have changed--the WillsOp Long Look...

It is important to be of quiet spirit, in order to hear the bitter lamentation of your enemy's women. View: https://youtu.be/6PQ6335puOc

The Outsiders are the Privateer's best source for UEE ships (which are preferred) taken from non-UEE sources. For dominance in the Leir system, one is really looking at mastering operations in: Leir, Kabal, Banshee, Tamsa, Yulin, Garron and Vanguard. 7 systems is a non-trivial endeavor, but if...
