The main difference is that Charon cannot mount class 10 guns and has some class 8 harpoints. But it has one turret hardpoint. Nyx is nicer. Charon is more ... public.

Edit: From what I remember when they took my first Nyx from me and gave me Charon, I didn't like the way it moves.

The Charon, is, I don't have any way to describe it. It looks beautiful, performs well in larger fights, but in no way is a 1v1 fighter. I have never had luck with it 1v1.

The ruined the better looking Viper MK II model and left you the MK I (Charon). Handling are about the same, so are the hulls.

But I think Charon should be more nimble since it can't match the Nyx in firepower.

Charon has HF hardpoints and HF armor. I flew it for a time, but it fails.

Too bad they decided to get rid of "imports". Makes me wonder why the Mafic, the Basalt and whatnot are still here.

Because deleting the ship entirely while people still have it causes crashes, last I heard, and they hadn't gotten a replacement model.

If you're in such a hurry, go make some replacements for the others. Go now, quickly! The mod needs you!

(actually, now that I think of it, replacements for the Basalt and Dacite have been started, I believe.)

As per CR request long time ago Charon (Viper MK I) was turned into HF-like ship (turning as slower HF, HF shield, HF guns, HF-like armor, but VHF powerplant), while Nyx (Viper MK I) stayed as average VHF.

I have the wierdest urge to make a Junker Charon. Its just SUCH a cool ship, but since everyone says it fails...:(Would it be like good for defending junker convoys or what?

Not having class 10's really turns me off to it.
