[@kungfo3054]

I bought a Corvette just because I want to hear the Imperial March soundtrack every time I leave a station.

[@Harbinger421]

You Good CMDR are a pilot of class ^^

[@MitchellMacrae]

Haha! This ^^

[@jjamo5]

gOOD CALL IM GETTING IT DOWNLOADED

[@Phoenix37csp]

i play it on my first launch of my play session now, good call!

[@doc9708]

Why not call it with true name: Star Destroyer

[@GhostGiraffe]

1 Corvette. Just was blown away the first time we saw them in game. 2 Anaconda The bottom half is our favorite part! Also only ship with persistent damage. 3 Chieftain Looks like a Decepticon Shark. Sharks are rad. 4 Python Don't know why. It's like an okay-looking girl who's really funny and is your best friend but that's about as far as you'll go with her. 5 DBX Never flown it but looks really cool especially the way it changes shape. Having said all this. No other ship Mars would rather fly than Orca. also type 7s are the devil!

[@talonfire1640]

Ghost Giraffe I fairly agree with this list, but I would add at least one Gutamaya in there instead of the DBX, but DBX is close

[@avivfrai4858]

I’ll be honest with ya guys, I miss the Discord

[@serror3416]

Hey ghosts here! You and yamiks are the best ED youtubers. Still watch your famous trip above the galaxy vid all the time.

[@enchiladans4209]

Scott D definitely

[@edgepixel8467]

No love for the Courier? I bought it as soon as I could afford, merely for the looks. The Type 6 is the first ship I owned that I liked to pause to take a look at.

[@courperationX]

-gets federal ship -paints it with imperial propaganda You're making us proud. son.

[@braevinmaund1210]

Damn Imp

[@Jenn-lq9yu]

Same thing I did. :p Also use my Fed Corvette to fight for the Empire in Conflict Zones. :3

[@deadeyecpt.7765]

1: Corvette, I could look at it the whole day. Looks like a fucking star destroyer. 2: Krait: love it's pirate looks and with a Black Paint it's even better 3:Cutter:looks like a ship you could live on. Beautifull looks from the start. Only issue is the cockpit imo, too small of a window when compared to the vette. 4:Fed.Gunship:just look at that ass... Also I love the military look of it, simple but good. 5:FDL: reminds me of a slice of pizza and I'm Italian so...

[@Zurpanik]

I just got into Elite Dangerous and it's been the most difficult game I've ever played and I absolutely love it. Before deciding to take the plunge and invest in the game, Horizons, and a Thrustmaster T16000M, I watched a few of your videos and I was almost immediately sold, but after one or two more, the sale was made. Thanks for the great vids and especially this one for showcasing a few of the more awesome ships I can eventually get my hands on!

[@wedge_one]

1 - Watch 6:16 out of context 2 - Someone make a gif and/or video-loop-with-sound Bonus: can't unsee the Conda-Scott analogy.

[@IIITangentIII]

I got to say I think that every since I saw the first FDL in game I thought it was a sweet-looking ride. It's not even my favorite ship but I love its Sleek look. It just looks fast

[@TheYamiks]

FDL is nice ship, but idk.. it just doesn't appeal to me that much, I'm more straight angled look kind of guy

[@Vixen1525]

Tangent Revolution It's a space Ferrari.

[@thomaswilkinson4863]

TheYamiks yeah the FDL is a very nick looking ship and my favourite ship it just destroys everything in its path :)

[@Sylusssss]

the FDL reminds me of the ugly ass bretonian ships from freelancer

[@IIITangentIII]

Austin Hale you are definitely entitled to your own wrong opinion :)

[@jsparks7495]

Dude wtf! Type 7 is totally the best looking ship in the game! *raaagge *

[@thomaswilkinson4863]

J Sparks lol XD

[@achillesa5894]

Okay say what you will but I actually kinda like the long brick. It's got the nice space truck aesthetic while having a more elongated shape than the T9. And it's got that sweet yaw speed.

[@snouie5687]

that ship belongs in minecraft

[@vehicleboi5598]

@@snouie5687 **sweden plays in background** Warning: temperature critical! Taking damage. Module Malfunction.

[@RelativelyBest]

I'm sort of in love with the Eagle, personally. It's really just a cool starfighter which this game doesn't seem to have a lot of. Like you say, the Imperial version looks like they just welded a bunch of unnecessary stuff on it. I also favor the Fer-de-lance, Asp Explorer, either of the Kraits, Corvette and Imperial Cutter.

[@Slybby]

1. Federal Corvette 2. Alliance Chieftain 3. Imperial Cutter 4. Fer-de-Lance 5. Diamondback Explorer

[@corytucker1239]

1, 2, 3, 4, 3???

[@Slybby]

haha wrong number xD

[@ngaviation3489]

Imperial cutter???

[@foxfire186]

The name plate on that 'vette.... 7:25 A+++ Perfect!

[@headoftaxreformandpercenta4908]

electrophunk The truth has been spoken

[@shindinder]

the... The...THe... THE... CUTTER FUCKER!! HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@ankylonshadow]

1. Corvette - Superb shape and military feel 1. Cutter - Elegant feel and majestic 1. Type-10 - Space fortress which packs a punch, best cockpit view also 1. Chieftain - Quick tiny ship that looks sturdy and nice cockpit 1. Type-9 - The definition of space truck, love the utilitarian look

[@headoftaxreformandpercenta4908]

kanhf0514 I really love the Chief but seeing *sturdy* and *cockpit* in the same sentence is the silliest thing

[@lcardenas2191lc]

I think the Clipper would look a smidge nicer if they rounded out that weird looking front part where the cockpit is and brought the nacelles in just a bit more.

[@calebfuller4713]

I agree. I love my Clipper, and the interior is awesome, but it does look a bit like a late model vehicle where the original was more streamlined, but at some point newer designers started just slapping bumper and fender kits on just to have a "current year" model. Still better than most ships in the game though!

[@DBGTZ117]

Im I the only one that thinks the Alliance Chieftain looks sick!? It looks like a verison of a UNSC Pelican.

[@Republi121]

DBGTZ117 The Diamondback Scout was the first ship i bought just because it looked like a Pelican...

[@stormsoda635]

Totally agree. Chiften is the best looking ship in the game+my goal ship

[@cmdreltonpoole6303]

It's an ugly bastard, but by god does it kick ass

[@Lump7229]

I called mine Kek Turtle, because I can kick ass in it and it looks like a turtle.

[@benlawton5420]

@@Generic8864 What do you mean the corvette looks way better.

[@ProcyonDei]

Umm... Yamiks? I might be a SaudKruger fan, but I honestly feel like Mars from GhostGiraffe held you hostage and forced you to put Orca in the list instead of the glorious "space almond" (the Python).

[@TheYamiks]

hehe maybe..

[@blackseir6390]

Nah krait mk2 excluding interior

[@WwZa7]

No Vulture? Not even in honorable mentions? This ship looks like a true predator with huge guns taking most of his interior space!

[@Clickum]

Right?! Especially if the Corvette is his number one choice...the Vulture has all the same features he ascribed as reasons for voting Vette.

[@Alen725]

End of video is specifically for you.

[@javannapoli2018]

Ehhhh, I can't decide if I like or hate the vulture, I like the general shape of it but the cockpit is the most awful looking thing and does not fit the ship in the slightest in my opinion. The concept art for the vulture looks amazing though, and the cockpit fits so well, I don't know why they fucked it up so badly for the final design.

[@Alswulf]

oh yeah man: totally agree about Corvette. It was my main reason to "charge" this game. It's just a definition of space battleship. When I was a child I dreamed to be like this ship (possible this wish is appropriate even now)

[@jessebob325]

Loved the D&D Bag of Holding reference. I convinced my raid party to get in my BOH and I’d teleport us all out. I got all the loot 🤣! Great video as always Yamiks. o7

[@hydrazine_n2h4]

Same here for #1, the Vette is just AWESOME

[@Dagoth_Ur_1]

I recently got a corvette, definitely the nicest looking ship, imperial cutter is also lovely. I love the FGS, and the 3 passenger ships all look nice.

[@davidkennedy6208]

Superb vid sir!!! I'd say my favs are Clipper, iEagle and the lovely new Chieftain. And I'm looking forward to the Kraits long awaited arrival, it looks interesting looks wise from Frontiers release pic.

[@ROPname]

awesome vid mate :) and... as you made me think of my personal top... here it is: Adder - upgraded shuttle design, brings me memories of my Old Diesel Opel Kadett and the sound fit so well! Imp. Clipper - rough fight with the Cutter, but personally, the forehead doesn't stand out so much as the Cutter Fat Gut. DBX - the dragonfly inspired design at it's best Dolphin - as I love the fish tail and the more rounded design (Orca looking a big blobish from the front) Anaconda - wierd, but I actually like her underside and would much prefer it to be the top part. That big panoramic window would be awesome for cockpit and the industrial design makes it look like a city, yet it contrasts well with the clean look when you turn her around. Doublefaced ship?!... Fitting for being an awesome multifaced aka multirole ship Keep growing man!

[@oiman5733]

Well, the Vulture's a hell of a space Ford Mustang with 2 M1A1 Abrams turrets.

[@poggerskekw5903]

Md. Ayeman Hyder the vulture is fuck ugly

[@javannapoli2018]

@@poggerskekw5903 yea looking at it's concept art makes me sad, it looked so beautiful and then they fucking squashed it for the final version.

[@alekseyibragimov9873]

I love Imperial Courier for how it looks inside and outside. But I like your video as well. Those are always a pleasure to watch! Cheers from St. Petersburg!

[@ImaRadish]

Corvette is definitely my number 1. I really liked the vulture. Took me a long time to get to it (started before the whole painite rush was a thing). It's got a nice cockpit for vr if you are having trouble with heights.

[@purgedome2386]

Spoiler Alert: :p #1 is Spaceball One

[@chilliges7259]

Lol the Imperial cutter looks like the space ship from Futurama. It even has stairs in the front gear.

[@henryatkinson1479]

D&D in an elite video. I have seen it all now.

[@thesightofpeace9750]

"The best looing ships" Me: Oh I gotta see this!!!

[@monks311]

ThesightofPeace 97 right! I was like "what's a loing? Is that some Belkan word? "

[@canislupus9208]

I like the the T-10, it looks like a really badass tank, really built off a T-9. I also feel like the guardian fighters are awesome!

[@t90mshaweenee55]

like an actual soviet heavy tank, the T-10

[@TheSaoMagnifico]

1. Alliance Chieftain. Looks like a badass space helicopter. 2. Diamondback Explorer. Also a badass space helicopter. 3. Federal Corvette. Holds its own with any capital ship from (name your favorite sci-fi universe). 4. Vulture. So maybe it's not pretty from every angle, but from some angles, it definitely is. 5. Eagle. Looks like a starfighter, acts like a starfighter, is a starfighter.

[@FlecheDeFer]

Love the Diamondback Explorer, and, yes, the Type10 Defender. Ok it might not make sense from an aeronautical point of view, but I love it.

[@VGpunx]

Another great vid, Yamiks!

[@skyeshepherd6341]

As a proud Conda owner myself, I couldn't agree with you more about it looks. (Amazing analogy by the way, had me in tears). Still, I have made some amazing memories while flying it and don't think I'll ever change.

[@briefnotion]

I’d vote the Python over the Corvette. As a bonus, it has 3 wide forward facing high beam lights and it’s outside lighting is great. Maybe you just need to see it fly in the dark.

[@thePauchu]

Totally agree on number one, I mean who would like to fly a star destroyer, and Core Dynamics made it come true.

[@stracer]

I love your ships names lol the seal clubber thats great

[@CMDRRZulu]

Had the same reaction about the loose wiring!! XD

[@TheCyanDragon]

Just a funky late comment here, but, of interesting note... Something else that really sells me on the looks of the Type-9 are all the small details. Seriously, go into the free camera suite and just look at it, there's so many little believable details on the exterior it's just fantastic. And while difficult to see anywhere but in the free camera mode, the massive 'main' rear thrusters on the Type-9 rotate and 'vector' depending on where you're pitching and rolling the ship, especially noticeable when stationary.

[@kennethhicks2113]

Dude! Your stuff just keeps getting more awesome sauce put on it! Maybe the best ship video work I've seen too... KEEP IT UP! And the Vette isn't just the prettiest ship in the game either! Cmdrs, how many innuendos did you catch?

[@dominikgaczynski797]

I don't know why but when I look at Diamondback Explorer it reminds me of a hornet. It was my first goal ship and I love how it looks but then I saw how Chieftain looks and I fell in love.

[@joeschmalhofer6109]

Just researched this video and I got an Elite Odessey ad!!! WOW

[@Brandon-qc3eu]

I love the Fed Corvette. I have two of them and im taking one on Distant Worlds 2

[@fluffiestmallard6484]

Honestly, I love the look of the Anaconda. Especially the back behind the cockpit. Those little wings and the black spot between them look so good. And don't even get me started on those heat vents.

[@michael_aagaard]

The third seat in the corvette used to be in front of the support strut before multi crew was in the game.

[@faustopancake234]

TIL Yamiks and I have the same favorite car. I also like the Core Dynamics designs too.

[@rhedinrage1601]

I do agree with you on things other than your taste in tabletop tho, That Corvette and the R34, Masterpieces of design for purpose.

[@themainman2827]

To me, the Kriet Mk2 es the girl of my dreams. That "upside down" design have something... In the other hand, the THICCnes of my Type-10 helps me in those lonely nights in the deep space...

[@newalteriabroadcast4035]

type 7 is just what you get when you draw a rectangle on a blueprint sheet and send it to lakon

[@ButtonPusher]

always loved the eagles, they remind me of Cyclonus (Transformers G1)

[@thenativemartian5169]

Yamiks you have me in stitches sometimes XD

[@Vixen1525]

Wherever you found that anime picture...I must say. Good job!^^ I mean it looks ^^ cool. ( I never thought that someone would draw thinks like that)

[@Z45HR4]

I would say my list goes something like this: 1) Corvette - I love the look of the Farragut and the Corvette is just a smol Farragut. 2) Mamba - Do I even need to explain this one? 3) Adder - It's so cute and I love it so much. 4) Eagle - It looks and feels like a proper fighter plus it kind of reminds me of a Romulan ship. 5) Vulture - This thing just looks nasty.

[@FFadddict]

You're definitely right about the orca 😂 I thought it was a vibrator the 1st time I saw it 😂 the beluga isnt much better lol it's just the ribbed version 😂 glad the vette was your number one though :) I've loved it since release

[@Dangit420]

i swear i can almost hear the laughter from Frontier's concept artists

[@alexanderrockliffe3489]

Good list man I like it. But I think cobra is worth a mention

[@MarcusMiranda013]

I love the Vipers way too much. Imperial Courier I just got and I don't know if I like it for real, or the exceptional grind it took for me to get it but I love the way it flies. I just need to modify it's jump range. I really want to love the Diamondback's but they remind me of the space ship in The Brown Hornet from the Fat Albert show way too much. And I just can't find myself flying around in a bee. But for me the Imperial Ships are all my favorites, and I'm probably going to collect them all.

[@alextowers7564]

1:24 Like the Empire logo on the Federal ship

[@PinkHusky433]

I have to agree with the Corvette, it looks efficient, clear cut and powerful, just like a Star Destroyer... and now with one of the new Paint Kit, I can call one the Boba Fett's Imperial Destroyer!!!

[@iancollins9960]

Not gonna lie I've been fallin' in love with the looks of the Chieftan lately. I wonder what it could possible be about it... I wonder what it reminds me of so much... what could it be... *halo theme*

[@Luigi2641]

Yamiks what is the station you filmed the orca at? It’s beautiful and I want to make it my home base :D

[@Phoenix37csp]

i wish when the vette deployed hardpoints, the whole cockpit part sank into the ship, and the 2 halves of the ship came together to close that valley in the middle and look more sleek and armored.

[@cmdrlornfrahm277]

When is the top 10 best looking cockpits coming Yamiks?

[@DigThat32]

Lol I luv the Eagle. I want to do a joint review on it

[@thelimesheep4324]

1 fer de lance. the ship that made me look into getting the game in the first place plus it looks fricking amazing while its beating your face in 2 cutter. I love it so much because it just reminds me of something that i would love to fly 3 cobra 3. for being the first ship i truly fell in love with when i was only starting out 4 diamond back explorer. don't know why but it feels like this would be like that old car model from the early 2000's that teens get when they first pass their drivers licence 5 anaconda. it was the first of the big 3 i saw and i got interested from it becasue it looked like something i would definitely use . cutter just looks better in my opinion

[@Mirandorl]

I'm new to the channel and I feel like I just got berated about ships by a character from Skyrim. I loved it

[@DarthWall275]

"Best looking ships' *Gunship* Okay Yamiks, go home, you're drunk.

[@javannapoli2018]

Nah the gunship is great, definitely in my top ships.

[@josephcopple3152]

Hey Yamiks(or anyone else) what's the music playing on 6:18-8:00(For the Corvette).

[@KirstenBayes]

I love your list but honourable mention should go to the Adder. Red paint job, so gorgeous.

[@Gdank72]

Was surprised you picked the Cutter over the Clipper.

[@gungan5822]

John Snape Clipper has a neanderthal forehead, that's why.

[@shindinder]

the cutter has a cockpit that blends into the ship a lot nicer while still having a nose, the clipper has a really really weird nose...

[@javannapoli2018]

I don't like either and it's pretty much exclusively because the cockpits look like fucking modern day airliners and clash so aggressively with the rest of the design for me.

[@lugia021]

What station is that you are in when doing the Orca shots?

[@redicanprime1181]

That federal corvette is the star destroyers first class fighter.

[@niscent_]

i just love my dbs. it looks so nice with those thicc railguns.

[@Kimaltd]

For me Corvette looks like a random SW/Homeworld cosplay. Gutamaya and Laikon are the best. Well and Orca too.

[@TheTattorack]

The Anaconda, though not at the very top of my least, is one of my favourite ships. Probably because it reminds me of Homeworld.

[@Napoleonic_S]

What graphics mod did this use and where can I get it?

[@nathanielmcclaflin1374]

Welp, now Gutamaya is waifu. I never would have imagined it, but here it is.

[@fritzbuild3r]

I personally would have had the kraits on that list. I think they definitely look better than the federal gunship. Their design is pretty unique and I am actually kinda found of the visible wires in the cockpit.

[@marianandnorbert]

i like the cutter best for the bright blue with black and white cockpit, even though i really like the cockpit location in relativity to the ship on the corvette, but then again, if i picture that cockpit location on the cutter (same as the star destroyers it’s on top on the rear of the ship) the cutter looks hideous then if i picture that, so for me corvette is #2 and cutter #1, other than that your list is the same as mine, most ships do look like litteral cargo containers lol, except for maybe the cobra and viper, i quite like those looks too but that would not be on my top 5 list, anyway, gotta go back to studying now!

[@treloarw]

Krait II gets my vote for 2nd place. Even with the wires. Exterior is gorgeous and interior view “structure” is quite nice. 1st place, I’m in agreement with Yamiks.

[@heinyhxc]

But the Viper Mk4 comes with a FREE spoiler

[@Ueberdoziz]

so does the the type 10 !

[@qwertypoi5]

As someone who just got a python, I hope to someday get to the wanking stage with that federal corvette.

[@happyface7342]

Very good and extremely funny, thanks for making my day 😂😂😂😂😂😂👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@supremecommander2398]

not only do you launch an imperial fighter from the gunship, you also put an imperial banner on the corvette! If it wasn't for the horrible cockpit, my number one would be the Adder, after that Dropship and corvette.

[@sigmer296]

2:59 Right when I thought I’d never see that again...

[@alessandroturci6750]

The Empress' honourable servant who likes core dynamics ships the most?! That's a fairly strange combination. But I like Core Dynamics' ships too! ^^

[@mrexists5400]

corvette, it's like a more smartly design star destroyer, you know, missing that obvious "shoot here" tower that makes about as much sense as a spoiler on a space ship, coughdefendercough

[@derkan6687]

now i will never unsee that sad face on the corvette

[@Chronicler177]

Rumor has it that the Type 10 Defender is Yamiks’ favorite looking ship.

[@adambrown6669]

My personal all out top ships out of the 38 ships in game atm including the upcoming phantom and Mamba would be... 37 - Type 6 - it is basically just a flying brick 36 - Keelback - same as the type 6 but with vast improvements in terms of the engines and other aesthetics 35-33 - Federal drop/gun and assault ship - 3 variant design ships with honestly an overall just slightly shaped brick like appearance, would have been less of an issue had maybe the cockpit been elsewhere or the ship had a more streamline shape to it. 32- ASP Scout - Not a horrendous looking ship, but it resembles a shaped brick again. 31 - ASP Explorer - Better in some ways than the scout but not enough to give it any more of a score than this 30 - Type 7 - very much a giant brick hence it's lower score, only reason it got this high is for how it reminds me of a ship from red dwarf 29 - Sidewinder - Basic flying doorstop. 28 - Cobra mk3 - much better version of the sidewinder, an overall pretty decent looking craft, just also suffers from the shaped brick look as the above do 27- Cobra mk4 - same deal as the mk 3 but bigger. 26- Orca - out of the 3 cruise liners this is the least aesthetically appealing one, it feels more like that early days cruiser that wouldn't cost alot to get on. 25- Vulture - one of the first ships of interest that takes the brick and shapes it properly into something actually kinda cool looking 24- Hauler - simple looking little space shuttle design kinda neat but nothing super special 23 - Adder - More sleek version of the hauler, reminiscent of Starbug from Red dwarf, pretty cool little ship 22 - type 9 - Big bulky beefy ship, another brick gone right, looks like a halo ship and as such is pretty cool 21 - Krait phantom - seems to be a minimalistic variant of the krait mk2 nice looking in that it is streamlined but it looses points as it did strip down most of the nice parts of the original. 20 - Federal corvette - Nice looking ship in some aspects but the shape being that it is so close to a space Dorito(star destroyer) looses its higher potential place, though it does have aspects similar to an oversized venture class, it just doesn't hit home for me. 19. Type 10 - similar to the 9 only with more aesthetically awesome aspects to it, this feels once again like a halo ship but with more beef, cool overall 18. eagle - nice looking fighter and one of the best looking ships you can get early on, this is a pretty neat ship through and through. 17 - Viper mk3 - similar to the eagle in terms of my opinion on it, add on to the fact it looks like a viper from battlestar 16 - Diamondback scout - probably one of the cooler looking blocky ships the game has to offer, this small little ship is what the federal lineup wishes it looked like 15 - Viper mk 4 - far cooler version of the mk3 with a design that feels more compact and awesome 14- Diamondback explorer - bigger better version of the already very cool scout. 13 - Beluga liner - one of the best looking bigger ships in the game, far greater that the orca in appearance, sleek, with style, the wings truly add more kick to this ships appearance making it feel less like a shapely tube and more like a luxury space cruise liner 12 - Imperial courier - like the rest of the imperial lineup this ship looks wonderful, it has a lovely streamline shape and actual nacelles which for a star trek fan like myself makes this ship a pretty great thing, and one of the best to fly in game 11 - Krait mk 2 - another amazing ship that reminds me in some ways of a defiant class mixed with a longsword fighter, also has one of the best interiors in the game, even has a coffee machine. 10 - Fer de lance - another great ship, kinda like waverider meets normandy, very sleek appearance and a great looking ship overall 9 - Anaconda - this ship looks similar to and certainly fits the role of an intrepid class with half its stardrive missing, far more appealing than the corvette in that the underside and rear end take away some of that star destroyer look for a more appealing to me at least star trek esc vessel 8 - imperial clipper - beautiful ship, with again a star trek meets space shuttle design to it, very nice and awesome overall. 7 - Imperial eagle - like the eagle only better in literally every way, colour scheme, nacelles, rollbar, everything about this eagle is just so much nicer to look at than the base version, 6 - Imperial cutter - a big beauty of a ship, the best looking big ship imo and a smexy one at that. 5 - Python - this wonderful ship hits so high for its similar appearance to the U.S.S. Relativity in terms of it's overall shape. 4 - Dolphin - the best looking passenger ship in the game, like a mini beluga 3-1 - alliance lineup - truly spectacular looking ships, these things are like gutumaya and sand kruger lovechilds with the alliance flag over them, streamline, nacelle like aspects, mixing halo, star trek and mass effect into a trio of amazing ships, these would have been the best if it where not for one other recent addition Best ship - Mamba - this updated fer de lance for me resembles the closest in game reference to a steamrunner class, which incidentally is my favourite star trek starship, this beautiful craft will likely replace my current fer de lance as main combat craft when it finally drops, and is likely to hold that top dog spot for some time, though that may change if any further ships are added, right now we have had an explorer/multipurpose and a combat ship, leaving the floor open for a cargo ship and an explorer/multipurpose, depending on what the krait phantom falls under.

[@timesthree5757]

As some one that has military experience I love the vette. It just feels the part.

[@Uncivildefiance]

I'd agree with the corvette being top 3 in looks, but the way the bridge sits way above the ship kinda kills it for me. It looks really nice, angular and streamlined until you get to the bridge.

[@god_pharaoh6111]

i personally really like the diamondback explorer. idk why, just interesting design

[@rubylazer995]

Honestly this is a realy balanced list i spected yamiks to put the cutter as number 1

[@dividedreality9708]

No cheese wedge asp or funky looking cookie sidewinder? Edit: My opinion is that the devs want a more "functional" aesthetic with the ships and differentiates which ship came from where e.g. Core Dynamics having a more militaristic/utilitarian design which is a huge contrast with your typical space opera sci-fi imperial ship.

[@sim.frischh9781]

I can´t believe you actually did it! And yes, i meant YOUR best looking ships, i have my own.

[@SabreXio]

I kinda like the Anaconda's look. It looks like someone made a space ship out of a big PT Boat.
