TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

With its increased power capacity, "The Bloodhound" represents a [in]significant threat to police forces and shipping targets in Sirius. Heavily modified [ruined] from its original chassis design, this fighter is fast [slow] and can deliver a lethal [to the pilot] payload and array of offensive weaponry. These factors make this ship of great value [in that it's cheap as rust] to alternative [woefully inadequate] fighting forces everywhere.

This fighter is also widely regarded as a "piece of crap".

Heeey, Bolin! Bolin Zhao!

Yeah, so, uh, like, um, uh. I know a sweet deal when I see one - and duuude, you gave me like, three deals, for the price of one, man!



JVerdammt ja, I'm -the- honorable foreign customer! The one n' only, my man - Der Anfang und das Ende, der verdammte König!
[F**ck yeah]-----------------------------------------[The alpha and the omega, the f**cking king]


Hey, do you know what my wing said about you, my man? They said, get this, that you're a scam artist!



Don't buy hawks from rando' artifact dealers, they said. Well, look at 'em now. Err, that'd be difficult, given that they're many, many lightyears away from each other right now. Imagination!



For the money I paid - that was a steal, man. I robbed you. Well, I rob a load of people, but not to the point I can't feel bad about putting an honest trader down. There isn't enough like you out there, Zhao.



I am not kidding - this kit ship is a tuner's wettest of wanderlusts. It's -the- ideal tinkertweak for up-and-coming Arbeiters who feel a Starflier or a 'Tracker is a set of training wheels.



See, here's the problem - I'm out of berthing space, and they barely trust me with this Paduan clunker. But I wasn't going to let that Tear shed, no way. I gave her a once over - got that seat massager functional - addictive, that - then palmed it over to the VJP - that's the Vereinigung Junger Piloten [Association of Young Pilots]. It's a cut above a sim but a notch below a Falc'.

I hear some young tearaway went and robbed someone for ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION CREDITS on her first sortie. If you don't believe me, I'll cut her into the channel. She can give you the post flight review.

So, the next time I get called out for my "ridiculous financial decisions?", or some narc' impugn the integrity of your services? I'm going to tell them about how Zhao's Hyper-Hawk made me, uh, strike that - the cause of the Workers - one hundred and fify million credits, in one sortie, when I wasn't even at the controls.

Man, I've got a rock of salininated paradise, infused with Marseilles Nox - it isn't going to smoke itself.

I'll tell you what - I'm going to put the kid on comms' - she flew in it, she should give you her opinion. If she liked it, then I'll add you to our suppliers list. Importers as reliable as you, Zhao, are hard to come by.

Yeah, I'm going to enjoy myself. Put my feet up, get blazed out of the disc of the universe - leave the review to the next generation.

Okay, what was that kid's neural address again?


Uh, I'll go by name.... Sapir Kellerman?

Alright, I've got her... stand by...
