well Asp does and a few other golds ive seen, Evoli as red also

I think the NT have adopted the Vult as our craft of choice. It looks better in gold than it ever did in red anyway. All shiny and glistening. . .

ot: it still was the red fighter in ante-3.2... :ot
the vulture is still in common usage, you just have to look a little harder.

Alkon had a dev engine, normal frigs don't. *enters 6* "ok! let's cap!" *30 minutes past, with bots repeatedly shooting and ramming*
"Finally! the gate!" *gates through, with 20%* "Ok! the flag isn't too far away!" *5 minutes later the flag is reached, followed promptly by death*

i can see before my inner eye... resupply ships... repair crews... fighter cover...
