Overview

The Sidewinder NG (Next Generation) is a scaled-down version of the Sidewinder Scout with a modern and compact (but slow to engage) Witchdrive making it the smaller ship capable of hyperspace jump. Its great maneuverability and relative low cost make it a good choice for carriers or unwealthy systems police's fighters. The Sidewinder NG is built by Spalder and Starblaze Inc for Faulcon de Lacy in Onrira Orbital Shipyards.

This OXP include player ship, GalCop Police version and Start Choices to begin in easy or Normal mode with a Sidewinder NG instead of a Cobra Mk.3.
