A corporation based in the insectoid corporate state of G1 Riredi.

Overview

Coluber Inc. (owner of Coluber Works and Shipyards Ltd.) are the manufacturers of the Coluber Racers, the Coluber Pitviper, and the Coluber HUD CH01.

The triplicity of Riredian aesthetics is especially apparent in the PitViper design.

Products

Ships

Coluber" is a genus of fast moving, nonvenomous snakes commonly known as racers. Racers are not harmful ... ... as long as you leave them alone! But if you goad them, they become VERY aggressive. The nature of the ships Coluber Ltd. produces is similar.

  • Coluber Pitviper - CPV-9333 (military "Vindicator" with special lasers & civilian "Beast"); CPV-12375 (Pitviper Mk. II)
  • Coluber Blue Racer - CB-70333 (upgrade for the Python) - 3 versions: Standard; Buccaneer Blue Racer & Riredisec Blue Racer
  • Coluber Red Racer - see Blue Racer page - CRR-5375 (Escort/dogfighter)
  • Coluber Yellowbelly Racer - see Blue Racer page - CYR-30350 (lonewolf trader)
  • Coluber Black Racer - see Blue Racer page - CBL-50369 (mid-size trader with special equipment)

HUDs

Each of these has its own HUD. There is also an independent "Coluber HUD": Coluber HUD CH01, available in 4 versions!

Equipment

Some of the ships above come with various special items of equipment:

  • Forcefield-reinforced hull (Pitvipers)
  • Reinforced military laser (Pitviper Vindicator)
  • Cutting blades (Pitviper Mk. II)
  • Attitude Control System (Black Racer)
  • Type-II superconductor main bus (Black Racer)

Station

  • The Coluber station at Riredi is a one-off (unless you are using SFEP which adds them to the Extra Planets).
