I've no idea how that works. Add a new ship with the Barracuda model and improved stats, tweak the current Mk I into a Mk II ( just alter the stats ), or change the Hammerhead a bit. All three work fine if you ask me.
Erm, yeah you could just alter the stats like they did with the Falcon. Give it 3 lvl 8 slots and 2 lvl 9 slots or whatever the 'normal HF loadout is. I know they do not have level 10 slots, however. It'd be faster and more streamlined.

Actualy the Gladiator is as unique as the Outcasts' Inferno. It's something special that noone else has. Bounty Hunters on the other hand have the Super Heavy Bomber ( Bottlenose ). Rheinland Military have the 5 gun ship ( Wraith ). Order has the only VHF with 6 class 10 slots.
Pretty much those unique things make said factions special. Because if there was a civilianbertonian Wraith - it wouldn't have been anything special.
If a pirate faction had the Bottlenose - they wouldn't have feared the Bottlenose's anti-bomber ability (So I've heard and when I tested it came true).
If someone else had the Order's 6 class 10 VHF, they would've never seemed any special, nor would've their pilots have any edge when fighting the nom-noms.
Oh and did I forget to mention the Voidrunner? Class 10 shield, mini razor slot, 3 class 10 guns. Powercore and regeneration better then the Titan's and the speed and hitbox of a Light Fighter.
Now why doesn't every faction have one of those killer fighters? Because then nomads wouldn't be anything special. Same goes if all factions had the access to one of those special ships.
EDIT: Don't take this as a "I don't want Barracuda mkII". I do want such ship, but I don't want it to copy another unique ship.
Also forgot to mention the Hessians' Loki Light Fighter - the only "I'm not blue and squishy" light fighter that supports the mini razor.
