! Warthog MkII Upgraded
=== It's heavy and clumsy ===
The downside of the Orion Hornet is quickly assessed: its acceleration and manevuerability are only slightly better than those of a concrete brick. Even the massive Atlas large Raptor has better acceleration, due to higher thrust/mass ratio. The weight, acceleration and spin torque prevent this ship from being able to efficiently dodge, or quickly align toward the wormholes. It needs some training to compensate its inertia, and on the short distances it's left in the dust by lighter vessels with explosive accelerations, like EC, Vulture and even Raptor.
The length and cross section are rather large, making it an easier target to hit than the smaller and thinner ships.
