The Orca is a recent development of the Bounty Hunters Guild. Replacing an outdated gunship model, this gunboat was specially developed to act as an anti-fighter warship for operations that the Guild undertakes in remote and dangerous systems. Usually accompanied by several Hammerheads and Mantas, the Orcas is a force to be reckoned with, feared even by the most experienced pilots of BHG's most hated enemies, the Outcasts and the Corsairs.

Handling

This ship is well balanced and cost efficient, it offers a good powercore, strong hull and the much needed maneuverability. Equipped with a missile turret, razor and inferno (or perhaps a Cerberus turret) this ship has all the equipment it needs to do short work of rogue pirates. The Forward Turret shoots 5-10 degrees "bellow" the target in the standard ship or turret view. This is usually corrected by changing to first-person view. The ship's obvious flaw is that some turrets can't shoot under a specific angle backwards, thus diminishing the damage output. The other flaw is its shape and size, its fairly easy to hit, even with a stationary opponent using the turret view.
