Manufacturer's Summary

---

The Raven's Talon is a civilian vessel built by many independent shipbuilding factions, such as the Independent Miners Guild, Zoners and Junkers. A ship not usually bought for it's looks, it is a good choice for the freelancer who prefers solid performance over flash.

The Raven's Talon can be found in service across Sirius, having made its way onto the black market, and is sold all over the sector. In addition to being flown by civilian pilots, it can be found in the hands of many mercenaries, freelancers and pirates. Its popularity is in no small part due to the widespread availability of (compatible) replacement parts, making the Raven's Talon one of the most easily maintainable ships on the market.

Sarah's Summary

---

Good ship, this one. And I'm not just saying that because I can get replacement parts at Kreuzberg for less then a Manhattan cinema ticket (it helps, though). The Raven's Talon's not quite as common as the CTE- line, yet, but they're working on it. The ship's about as simple as them come internally, though the wiring's usually a bit of a mess. It's not particularly pretty, so that's handy if you want to sneak into a Junker meeting or something (Hey. Not here to judge, okay?), and it does tend to mean people won't pay as much attention to you. The Talon's not quite as acceptable in a corporate setting as something like the Eagle, so if you're planning to sneak under the radar, the CTE- line may be a better choice. Otherwise, it's a pretty dependable choice, and we've got all the replacement parts you could possibly want a short flight away.
