 == Overview ==
-The fuss surrounding this ship's release in 3183 was as nothing to the controversy involving who was responsible for its shoddy design. Seven years of design, and the best they could come up with was ''this''? As an upgrade from the [[Eagle_Long_Range_Fighter_Mk_1|Mk I]], the designers treated ship design as a zero-sum game, and by some accounts, the Federal Military Research Directorate has yet to recover from the gaffe.

 == Notable Features ==
-The Mk II remains one of the faster small ships on the market, and has decent capacity for outfitting as a fighter. It's also highly manoeuvrable, and most pirates will have difficulty drawing a bead on you. This is fortunate, as it's small enough to not be able to take much punishment.
+The Mk II remains one of the faster small ships on the market, and has decent capacity for outfitting as a fighter. It's also highly manoeuvrable, making it hard to target in combat.   Due to this small size however, it can't take much punishment.
 == Disadvantages ==
-No, the figure for the retros here is NOT a misprint. 4G is laughably weak for even a cargo ship, and for a small craft such as this it's unforgiveable. You'll be tempted not to install an autopilot and just manually [[Flip manoeuvre|flip]] the craft around every time.
+The retro rockets are inexcuscably weak at four gees.   Most pilots will forgo the autopilot and do a manual flip at the centrepoint of their journey.
 == Verdict ==
-Only buy if desperate or if you're in the mood for a challenging (and probably brief) career.
