Tumbril Storm AA to Drake Buccaneer - Upgrade
The Drake Buccaneer is a rough-and-tumble frontier fighter can be maintained in the worst of conditions in order to keep real, working space crews alive. It is designed to maneuver and fight above its weight class, and to complement the Cutlass/Caterpillar System.
History
When Drake Interplanetary set about developing a dedicated fighter, they didn't do it in a vacuum: they wanted a ship that would work alongside their entire lineup. This newest entry to the Drake catalog is an agile scrapper, something intended to take hits without breaking the bank on repairs and maintenance needs. The Buccaneer also needed to provide ample support to either the Cutlass or Caterpillar while also having the range of travel to safely cover a Herald. To meet these goals, the engineers at Drake opted for a single-seat, maneuverable fighter built expressly for combat, with plenty of capacity to alter its loadout to quickly move between close-range fire support and long-range escort. A purpose-built ship, the Buccaneer is ready to stand toe-to-toe with any other fighter in its size class.
This product is an upgrade and converts your mandatory existing ship into the ship listed. Other aspects of your package (such as LTI) will be retained. Note that ships acquired with in game currency during Alpha cannot be upgraded.
Please note that the dates shown in product screenshots may vary on the actual product received. Please further note that hangar names may differ on the product received, as RSI did rename their hangars some time ago. Please further note that Alpha, Legacy Alpha, and Beta Access may differ or be missing on the product received, as these products have been discontinued by RSI.
