📋 About This Mod
At first: This is an updated version of BrummBaer´s Wolf Mk2 i made with his allowness and in agreement with him.
The ship was renamed because i always try to use existing names that are already in the game and can be spoken by Betty.
I also adjusted the prices for buying/building the ship slighty to fit a bit better into the game. All other parameters, speed, weapons, shields, hull are the same as in the original mod.
The Viper is a fast S-class heavy fighter which can be bought at the Split wharfs - you are also able to buy the blueprints and build the ship on your own.
It´s main features are its high speed and the ability to carry 2 shields, which is highy unusual for Split fighters.
Equpiment:
3 S-Engines
2 S-Shields
5 S-Weapons
Languages:
English
AI-Usage and Balancing
The ship was added to existing shipgroups so the Split will use the ship in small numbers in their fleets.

Installing:

Special Thanks:
The biggest thanks goes to BrummBaer who made the initial ship! I liked this ship so much i updated the old version for being compatible with the latest X4-version.
