{{Review|[[User:Blodo|Blodo]]|Reduced mass makes this fighter very responsive to all strafing manuevers, while its grand total of seven forward firing guns (6 guns, 1 turret) enables it to deliver more firepower than most VHFs would be capable of. Despite its speed and firepower however, one will quickly notice that the Sabre is not the smallest of fighters, and its energy reactor limits its firepower potential. While an almost even match for the [[Titan]], the Sabre needs to nonetheless work a lot more to outmanuever enemy ships and is therefore best suited for skilled pilots.}}

{{Review|[[User:Pepe|Pepe]]|Sabre is well armed. All 7 guns can shoot forward. Class 10 weaponry works good on it, just dont shoot if you're not sure to hit. It strafes good. But, it is big and it's easy to hit it. Skilled pilot knows how to "take a higher ground" and will use it with big pleasure.

{{Review|[[Misterich]]|The Sabre is one of the powerful ships in Freelancer. Each Weapon is able to fire forward. This Ship has not got a perfect power core for lvl 10 weapons like the LSF Avenger but it can use them if the pilot just firing each 3 sec. The Sabre is a ship for pirating and attacking, so that this is the perfect ship for everyone who likes to use fighters.}}

{{Review|[[User:Ivan Norovich|Ivan Norovich]]|After being a top dog among the Very Heavy Fighters, this ship has been nerfed. Nowadays it's handling is poor for a ship of it's class, and the power core is subpar for a Very Heavy Fighter, depending on your load out, you may find that the Sabre in 4.89 struggles to support firing all guns and the turret included, I also found that it's shape makes it easier to SNAC than most other fighters in 1v1 dogfights against bombers.}}
But... you are not skilled pilot? No pleasure? Keep reading.
 
 
 
Outcasts and Corsairs can use Sabre. Both factions developed superior pulse weapons. Use it. Make good anti-shield setup with Coladas or Infernos, like this:
 
 
 
- For Corsairs: 4 Coladas, 3 Salamancas (just for defence), Mini-Razor, Nuclear Mines and good CM (in case you step on a gunboat willing to use your low skill and wipe you out).
 
 
 
- For Outcasts: 7 mighty Krakens, Inferno, Screamer Mines and good CM.
 
 
 
Than find a friend with another sabre. Find another friend with nice pirate transport, equipped with CD. Plunder freely and make a fortune. Use Hit-and-Run strategy, NEVER stay on one place and don't forget to protect your transport. Make your path to the stars - until got caught and hanged (maybe never).}}
