The Centaur is the trading vessel for the rest of us. If you don't have a high enough standing with UIT to get the Marauder, then this is the next best thing for trading. While not as fast as the Marauder, it has a better weapon set up, with two large ports and one small port. The Centaur makes a good mining ship, with a small port to hold a Mineral Scanner, two large ports to hold two mining beams, and space to hold the minerals.
The Centaur is a common slight in PvP where it is considered a classic heavy ship. Commonly armed with a Gatling Cannon MkII.
