I feel like this should be a civilian class medium/heavy bomber/VHF.
It just looks too badass to be allowed to fly only by the Mollys or Rogues. I'd like flying this ship around.
The team in charge of balance managed to take care of the Sabre and the Tridente. I don't see why this particular shape is hard to balance...
Edit: About the model: It looks great (the version without those tubes) and I can see it as a Molly VHF. It even has some bretonian fishy aspect. This could be the beginning of the Mollys ship line, after combining the somehow nimble Rogue ship design with the heavier aspect of the Corsair and Lawful bretonian ships. And the Rogues shouldn't have access to these ships. Have them RPed as experimental prototypes and only available to the Mollys.

Mollys are pretty dead as it and they would not benefit from awesome looking model.
Hell, this would be a nice model for Havoc Mk3.
This. I love the model, rather different shape than your typical snub, but making a new ship or shipline for a faction that probably has 0.3 players online on average seems like a terrible waste.
Everyone can enjoy more civilian tech (including Mollys).

In my opinion, giving nice ships to dead factions may entice new and old players to join such groups, plus, the main factions need brand new series of ships and strikecrafts including Corsairs.
