Overview

The Kha'ak Corvette is not often seen outside Khaak sectors, though it does turn up particularly during the Final Fury plot. It is not an especially powerful ship and will fall relatively easily to another Corvette. However, it is still a foe to be wary of and like most Kha'ak ships, rarely travels alone.

Background

Paranid long-range reconnaissance pilots recently discovered this ship in a Kha'ak sector. It was reported to be of M6-class size and configuration. Little else is known about this warship.

Physical Characteristics

This odd-looking ship has two hand-like wings with six purple fingernails. These hands rotate around the cockpit in full circles, regardless of whether the ship is rolling.

Combat

The Kha'ak Corvette is best attacked along its ecliptic plane from behind, where it has a blind spot. It has quite heavy shields as Corvettes go, but due to its overblown size it collects incoming fire and because of its inability to hit a shadowing target it is not a particularly potent warship.

It is a decent match for other corvettes that are not agile enough to remain in the blind spot, but not the heavy M6s it resembles more. Despite a colossal laser generator on the upper end of heavy M6 territory its Beta Kyon Emitters drain its power very quickly, leaving it with a fraction of its full power. Alone it is not much of a threat to anything with shielding in excess of 800MJ.

Availability

The Kha'ak Corvette is unavailable in the vanilla game.

In Albion Prelude, the ship can be found as a random Ownerless Ship, but locations are randomized and are not necessarily placed at the start of a game. The Corvette comes with a random assortment of weapons, and given that the Kha'ak have no live spawns in Albion Prelude, there is no other way to equip the Corvette.

Suggested Roles

In Albion Prelude, it is at best a trophy, as it cannot be Reverse Engineered, and fully outfitting it is entirely subject to random chance.
