Hey is Ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous beyond the chapter 4 beta
let's talk about the Mamba big reveal happened recently with elite dangerous
and frontier the Mamba has been announced and from this announcement
what do we get we got a slick car showroom II sort of care advert sort of
thing that showcases the member in all its glory we can see on the screen now
nice and sleek not too unlike the fer-de-lance right you can see it's
definitely being channeled from that but you know is it any good what's it gonna
be like yes it's red it's a bit like the Starsky niche it's at Gran Torino
that Starsky had in those sort of colours like that lots of attracts
people to that sort of ship now to me it's obvious the mambas design draws its
inspiration from the zorg Peterson's famed fer-de-lance ship we can all see
the fer-de-lance aspects of this here easily easily however you know the
fer-de-lance is very capable right with class 4 weaponry and you know overall
the further lance it's a fantastic fighter a brilliant fighting ship and no
one can can effectively deny that the mambas cockpit includes a secondary
pilot's seat giving that ship also sort of like multi crew ability had points as
well to small higher points forward of the cockpit from what we can see and two
large Hodge points are on either side of the cockpit and the huge head point is
behind the cockpit so because a really sort of lay down that hammer should you
need to is it going to be versatile as a fighting ship though why would you want
to have it I mean is frontier putting all these ships in to enhance the combat
factor of the game going forward whereas perhaps what the community might have
want is a great big honking battlestar galactica I'm gonna launch all my ships
from this and you can take that thyroids sort of ship as opposed to all these
mid-range fighters I don't know I mean a new
a new ship is something to get excited about it looks nice it's nice and curvy
will I buy one probably you know but let's get on with some of these specs
four of its utility mounts are on the ventral surface while the remaining two
are near the upper end of the chassis the two pilot seats are on the ship
centerline in a blister blister style cockpit as we've seen on most of the
fighter jets and the primary pilot seat is in the front so anyway enough of this
what's this shiny lovely ship gonna cost you out the door
well rumor has it it's looking around about 56 million with an insurance cost
of 2.8 million in its stock configuration so to continue with this
we've got a top speed knocking in at 316 meters per second with a boost speed of
387 meters per second and that is an engineered shields are knocking in at
280 mega joules with armor of 270 so not bad he'll massive 280 and fuel capacity
standard of 8 tons now stock jump range is six point four three light years but
obviously you can engineer that to your little hearts content now let's start
talking about the good stuff where can your perk it so landing pad size medium
okay so that's not so bad uh what else yet seats two we mentioned that
multi-crew yes you've got one sat behind the other in that lovely bubble cockpit
of a canopy and hardpoints so two small hard points two large had points and one
huge hard point then with six utility mounts now how does that stack up
against the fer-de-lance so the FTL I mean let's face it
six utility mount it's the same multi-crew yes seats to landing pad
medium but for medium had points on one huge head point as opposed to the member
that typically has two large to small and one huge now can you live with that
if you can take this into combat this is what you got to think of yourself the
fer-de-lance is slightly cheaper but 5 million cheaper things to consider when
making a purchase so back to the manbo we've got internals as well two sites
two internal compartments one size three one size for when size five so that's
going to give a cargo capacity of 64 tens a top speed of 367 and a top boost
of 452 m/s and also a mass lock factor of 12 now these are all an engineered
okay the maximum upgradable they are saying is around about eighteen point
two light years but of course you can engineer the hell out of that thing as
well a so not to worry about that some other things worth mentioning
okay so spy standard you're gonna get lightweight alloys as you always do it'd
be nice just for once four of these ships that come fully armored up and
just pay the money and there it is but just my thoughts there the reactor Bay
is Class six thrusters class five frameshift drive class for life support
class four as well power couplings Class six and quite big for a ship like that
and the sense of sweet also class four fuel stop is a little on the light side
with a class three and of course you know you've got the ability to carry
about as stock 64 turns worth of cargo so all in all not bad
I was said not bad at all you know it puts it in between the fer-de-lance and
below the federal gunship in terms of dealing out damage for us mediums medium
ship like this
good positioning of the hardpoints I'm quite looking forward to it
am I gonna fly one year there and everywhere I don't know
I like the crate personally but anyway I've been retired with thanks very much
for listening this has been my look or first look at the mammoth at was
revealed in Chapter four beta now we haven't got to fire this yet it might be
an absolute Pig but given what they've shown us on the livestream it looks ok
it looks fun it's another ship and like I said at the
beginning it's shiny in red if you haven't done so click that like and
subscribe button and also that notification icon that will let you know
when I'm putting more YouTube's just this one on YouTube friendly enough and
also I got a bit of twitch going on and I'm not spending much time with that ok
so again thanks for watching thank you for your support and see you soon
you
