An iconic ship from the Privateer 2 series was the heretic starfighter. From the Privateer 2 description of the Heretic: The Heretic is a high-end medium fighter available on the private market in the Tri-System. Two of the Tri-System's most well-known pilots, Leon J. Spudley and Alopecia Cook, fly the Heretic. Heretics often fall into less reputable hands. In 2790, a pair of Duresses and a pair of Heretics abandoned a load of synthetic organs bound for an Anhur Orphanage to pirates. Finbhar Cratchett, the orphanage director, placed a bounty on their heads. Pirate clans also fly the craft - another even quartet of Duresses and Heretics, this time flown by Jincilla pilots, posed as mercenaries to lure the transport ship Lubanna into a trap. Never the less, mercenaries flying Heretics also make more noble choices. A pair of the fighters defended a convoy of refugees traveling from Hephaestus to Anhur. The convoy was found to be carrying weapons to Karatikus, and was attacked in an operation planned by Lord Mike Vonx. The Heretic pilots opted to defend only the transports carrying passengers. Xavier Shondi hired a mercenary Heretic to defend his arms shipment to Karatikus in 2670. A pair of Heretic pilots acted as seconds for Count Perrymore during his duel with Baron Conrad Velder. The Heretic entered service before 2789. Notable Heretics include F821_234F (2789) and T300_241A (classified) and M364_645G. Heretic M364_645G was lost around Nav Point 89 in 2790.

My suggestion would be to create a spiritual successor to the Heretic in Star Citizen, as I feel that this ship would fit very well into the verse... DRAKE HYDRA: The Drake Hydra would be a new medium fighter and spiritual successful to the Privateer Heretic. Drake would be an idea manufacturer due to the Heretic being often used for piracy in Privateer 2. The ship would be relatively simple, sporting the same component loadout seen in ships like the super hornet medium fighter. The ship carries a centerline S5 main gun as its primary armament flanked by 2s3 hardpoints on the wings. The large centerline gun makes the ship ideal for a wide variety of targets from small craft to bigger freighters. It would have a higher than average count of missiles. In standard drake fashion, the ship would not have an ejection mechanism but would offset this by being the fastest and most nimble of the medium fighters outside of the Drake buccaneer (which is tuned as an interceptor) despite its relatively beefy armament. The ship would commonly be seen by NPC pirates and players who prefer to accept a level of risk to get more agility and more firepower/hardpoint options than other medium fighters.
