Overview
+++ This page is currently under construction +++
What the Boa II is to the trader, the Pitviper is to the bounty-hunter. This corvette-class ship is the result of a joint venture between the Riredian Government and the Coluber Works and Shipyards Ltd. The HQ of the company is located in the Riredi system in galaxy one and so they have very good connections to the lokal government.
The Pitviper is a straightforward combat vessel, a bounty-hunters dream. (And thus a pirates nightmare of course).
The ships hull can not deny to be a insektoid design and thus - to human eyes - the ship looks quite ugly. Many of the outer technical details can not deny to be a human design and thus - to insect eyes - the ship looks quite ugly. But hey! They have put a nice paintwork on it
Notable features
In the Riredian culture and religion the numbers 3,6 and 9 are very meaningful and this circumstance had great influence on the design.(E.g. the vindicator can carry 27 = 3*9 missiles; 9 energy banks; 3 engines; etc.)
A special characteristic of the pitviper is it´s forcefield-reinforced hull. This together with the special design of the hull enables the pilot to attack by ramming other ships. But be careful! If the speed is too high (or the opponents ship is really big), even a reinforced hull may break.
Variations
The military version Pitviper "Vindicator" is not available on the civilian market. This version has no cargo capacity, but can carry up to 27(!!) missiles. It´s main weapon is a reinforced military laser. This proprietary development of the riredian navy has 30% more penetrating power then a common military laser an is also not available on the civilian market.
If you are lucky, you may get an offer to buy the "Beast", a special edition of the Pitviper. Coluber has gained a exceptional permission from the Riredian Government to equip a small amount of pitvipers for the civilian market with the military engines and energy banks of the the "Vindicator" version. Of course these vessels are rare and quite expensive.
Notable pilots
Diziet Sma
Diziet Sma commands the "Blackwidow", a Pitviper Beast.
