Overview

The Falcon is used as a trading vessel as often as a fighter, due to its large cargobay, better survivability than standard freighters and the ability to dock an infinite number at certain player-owned trading stations.

Variants

Falcon Sentinel

Falcon Sentinel - this is a unique Teladi M3 fighter which can normally only be found in a specific sector. On rare occasions they are sold second-hand. This ship has a special design feature to utilise two 200MJ shields (400MJ). This makes it the most shielded fighter in the X Universe and comparible to some Corvette class ships.

However it sacrifises speed for shielding, making it one of the slowest fighters and includes a poor shield generator, which means it takes a long time to charge back up its shielding.

Falcon Hauler

A favourite carrier fighter due to its cargobay (for ammunition) and shielding, the Falcon Hauler is a fairly cheap M3, with the unique ability to carry XL cargo like minerals. It uses one 200Mj shield and is quite slow, useful for AI control. Its laser generator is small, though it can use the Energy Bolt Chaingun, which requires ammunition instead of power. This ship is also used as a cargo shuttle for carriers and TLs.

Combat

The Sentinel and Hauler variants are sometimes favoured by players for Out-of-Sector fleets because of the OOS combat resolution algorithm. Because OOS damage is aggregated ships with high shielding will 'statistically' have a higher chance of survival regardless of speed or maneuverability.
