I'm in love with the Fury. Many seem to hate it already due to it's small fuel tank and it being a glass cannon. I'm just happy we finally had a new ship released without it being OP and then nerfed shortly after. Ofc we are lacking possible refueling options inside "pocket carriers" but nevertheless I find the ship as a cool little scout combined with my Corsair. I can have a snub and a small ground vehicle inside the ship which is nice. Fury is easy to fly and the view is amazing. I haven't tried it in a combat and probably won't unless I want to wipe some ground troops on some of the wreckage missions.
MISC Fury first look! Here it is!

I'm thinking the Odyssey would be a fantastic mother ship for these guys. As the game expands, we'll want to travel further out into the black. Distances that make light fighter engagements more rare. These buggers were made for those situations.
Yeah I liek it to.. but I hope they come up with some plan to manually refuel it in a carrier ship, if one can add like a transportable refuel tank like a air compressor or emergency power unit.
So you can on smaller ship cary like for one refuel or like larger ship like Carrack have room for larger refuel unit, even so only for two or three refuels..
To keep it somewhat balanced toward refuel ship and that game play, meaning if you have a refuel unit you still need to get to a refuel station or refuel ship at some point to keep it flying.
CHEER!

Kinda reminds one that buying the Fiat instead of saving for the Jag seldom satisfies.
it better have a Leather Seat like the Aurora LX or this thing is nothing to me.Courtesy of Jump Point...
I think it's more likely to be "LX" in the manner of the Razor, rather than the Aurora, given it's from the same manufacturer as the Razor...
I'm firmly of the mind that LX should stand for "Leather Xterior" and that all LX ships should be redone with a leathery exterior design.
Is it confirmed the Razor LX has no leather seat? If this is the case, this is unacceptable because Dat Leather Seat Thooooo!

The Razor LX is still listed as luxury.
LX in the manner of the Razor:
LX in the manner of the Aurora:
In the case of the Razor, the focus\emphasis is on the speed of the ship, while with the Aurora, it is on the "comfort"\appearance. With the Fury, it is likely they will take the same focus as the Razor has (given it is from the same manufacturer), rather than that of the Aurora, and this will be a "racing" variant.
After all, with its current fuel capacity, I don't imagine anyone would be intending\expecting to be seated in a fury for "long stretches in the deep black.".

The Razor LX doesn't give up any maneuverability. It's a little faster and gives up the missiles in return. That's hardly luxury. So the sales page, as usual, doesn't reflect the ship it describes.
The Fury is, IMHO, a waste of money as it lacks a quantum drive, and I have a Liberator in my fleet. The only use for the Fury is as an LTI token.
I can't find anything from CIG that claimed the "LX" variant of the Razor was ever intended as some "Luxury" version, so I'm curious where they stated that was what MISC intended the letters to refer to (and also what the EX was officially meant to represent) - Going back to the initial release, the focus was only around its "speed"\acceleration, with no indication of any expectation of "luxury" - https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/16599-misc-celebrates-50-years
The Aurora LX, on the other hand, was certainly advertised around "Luxury", with the LX being the "deluxe" variant of that line.
Just because 2 manufacturers use the same letters (or words - Drake has a Cutter, and the Reclaimer is also supposed to include a "cutter" - It doesn't mean it's the same, or even a similar, ship) to designate a model doesn't mean that they both intend those letters to represent the same thing.
As to the Fury, as with all ships\vehicles\items, its utility (or otherwise) comes down to the individual player - For many, it'll just be seen as an "LTI Token", while others may see it as having a legitimate use in their fleet and wish to pledge for it to keep as it provides gameplay\utility that they enjoy in the game and they do not wish to have to "grind" after any potential wipes in order to buy it. I doubt I'll have any use for one myself, but if it continues with the MISC\MIRAI use of "LX" to refer to the "racing" variant of their ships (and, at the size of the ship, it may be intended to compete against the P52\P-72 ships), then I imagine there'll be a few players who enjoy racing in the game looking to acquire one for their permanent fleet.

Thanks - I must have overlooked that (Not that it's the most reliable source of information from CIG, anyway... But I'm not sure there is such a thing as an acurate source either).Take the red pill and enter the Ship Matrix:

I'm guessing that the "Luxury" for various ships may be based on a different choice for the definition for "luxury":
The Aurora would seem to be focussed more around the "comfort" area based on the descriptions of the ship from CIG, while the Razor appears more focussed on the "pleasure" and being "not absolutely necessary" facet as there's no reference to "comfort" in any of the information released for the Razor LX.
The "Luxury Xterior" option could also be true - After the first entry into atmo, though, it burns off, so the ships go back to looking like the standard versions.

@NaffNaffBobFace beat me to it, and the word luxury is used in at least two other places, in addition to the ship matrix as well. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/pledge/ships?sort=store&search=&itemType=ships&storefront=pledge&type=&mass=&manufacturer_id[]=4&manufacturer_id[]=96&length=&max_crew=1&msrp=&
With no Quantum drive, it makes a very slow landing craft, if it even has enough fuel for the round trip and can't carry anything worth talking about. It takes up cargo space or landing pads that can be better served with other options. There is very few places you can carry it that you can't carry a Razor or Arrow. I can't find any utility for this very niche craft.
But, I'm not perfect. I may have missed a use. What is your use case, the utility you've identified, for this ship?
It reminds me of a "pod" from 2001, a Space Odyssey. Maybe give it some arms, and a cutter to move cargo or aid in salvage.
