Based loosely on an old, unpopular [[bomber]] design, the "Waran" still bears the name of the vessel it has come to replace. Many rumors circulate about it's origins. Some say [[Junkers]] mated the powercore of the old Waran to the [[Raven's Talon]] frame. Some say the [[Independent Miners Guild|Independent Miners]] secretly constructed this bomber as a craft for unscrupulous clients such as the [[Lane Hackers]]. Whatever the origin, the result is a sturdy bomber capable of unleashing withering firepower on a hapless target.

As with all bombers, this ship maneuvers poorly for a craft of its size. Nevertheless, its firepower and widespread availability found quick popularity with the "more power, more guns, fewer problems" crowd, which it turned out included virtually anyone interested in blowing things up. From [[Junkers]] to [[Gaians]] to [[Bundschuh]] to [[Xenos]], this ship has found universal employment by pilots for whom style is not a concern.

After having the title of the ugliest bomber in game for a long time, Waran got a nice rework which made him the most popular Heavy Bomber in the game. For a Heavy Bomber, the size is average (it has a big back), agility solid, guns and snac placement quite good, and it has mediocre armor. Almost any faction can use it and therefore it's the most versatile Heavy Bomber on the market.

DSCore: Waran

Based loosely on an old, unpopular bomber design, the "Waran" still bears the name of the vessel it has come to replace. Many rumors circulate about it's origins. Some say Junkers mated the powercore of the old Waran to the Raven's Talon frame. Some say the Independent Miners secretly constructed this bomber as a craft for unscrupulous clients such as the Lane Hackers. Whatever the origin, the result is a sturdy bomber capable of unleashing withering firepower on a hapless target.

As with all bombers, this ship maneuvers poorly for a craft of its size. Nevertheless, its firepower and widespread availability found quick popularity with the "more power, more guns, fewer problems" crowd, which it turned out included virtually anyone interested in blowing things up. From Junkers to Gaians to Bundschuh to Xenos, this ship has found universal employment by pilots for whom style is not a concern.
