TPG Raptor Mk3/4
TPG Raptor Mk3
. Same stats as TPG Raptor Mk2, except:
. Price: 40k
. Armor: Same as Valk X-1
. Max Speed: 65
. Requires: +1000 TPG standing
TPG Raptor Mk4
. Same stats as TPG Raptor Mk2, except:
. Price: 60k
. Armor: Same as Valk X-1
. Max Speed: 65
. UIT UDV class sensor package.
. Requires:
.. +1000 TPG standing,
.. plus all UIT UDV requirements
... except that UIT standing requirement lowered to +600. (edit: low enough that all nationalities could get it)
Edit: added prices.
Edit: The TPG standing requirement could be lowered to what ever is typical of a standing requirement for a top tier ship like valk x-1, prom, udv.

Yep. The second one is ridiculous.
First one isn't any better.

Can you provide constructive criticism or at least specific concerns?
I think the Mk4 would suit as a plausible substitute for the sought-after SP UDV. +1 to that. But i don't see the point in the Mk3... So -1 to that version.
These version are intended to give the Raptor some love in general. I rarely see it used.
I attempted to copy a select set of UIT UDV bufs to the TPG Raptor
. Combat thrust: left as is
. Max speed: Typical combat ship spec
. Armor: Valk X-1 spec ( X-1 10.5k vs UDV 12k)
. UDV class sensor package (Mk4 only)
This is an attempt to:
1) Make a Raptor in the same combat performance class as a Vulture Mk 3/4.
2) Make a ship with a UDV class sensor package that could be accessed by any nation willing to gain the necessary faction standing requirements. (With those standing requirements heavily tilted in favor of the UIT faction).
While specifically not making it a super ship like the UDV / Valk / Prom.
I have a lot of experience with the UDV, and only limited experience with the Raptor Mk 1/2. I may be underestimating the current Mk 1/2.

I actually love using it, but its such a pain to bring down to sedina is all. [Talking about the udv]
From what I understand, the base raptors might work for low-tier piracy with their high thrust, but ehh. Having higher-end raptors does sound like a good idea, though actual stat balance i won't debate. I allready love the light ships, and having the series continue in that direction would be nice.
