Overview

the Skeet is an interesting and recent design, which doesn't add anything new to the already large list of available starships.

Notable Features

The main feature of the Skeet is the rotating compartment on the top.

Disadvantages

The Skeet is a relatively bulky vessel, yet it only has two gun ports: Front and Back. Without a turret, it makes dog fighting harder.


Verdict

A good stepping stone up to larger freighters, but not something you would want to stay with for long.
