A work in progress OXP.

Sometime ago I posted some images on the Screenshots thread of the Oolite BB, of what is possible with Griff's multi-decal Player Cobra Mk III OXP. I mentioned that I have a lioness on the back of my Cobbie 3 hunters. Someone else suggested that jaguars might be better. This formed an idea in my head and Jaguar Company was born.

Overview

Adds in an Elite group of pilots to patrol the space lanes in Anarchy, Feudal and Multi-Government systems.

The members of Jaguar Company are part-time reservists so there is a chance that they will appear if there is a major Galactic Naval convoy in the system.
