They're no longer "utility slots" to CMDR Kate, they're just heat sinks.

Astounded at how many of the hydra's shots missed even when you were spiking. That small profile is a great asset.

You're kind of insane at AX combat. I've been thinking there's no way one of my favorite ships aesthetically, the Dropship, can be good for serious AX combat. Yet in your videos you prove time and again it's less the ship and much more the pilot. Keep up the good work!

I've just started using one of these and I must say it's now my favourite AX ship.

the Mk4 Viper is one of the best small ships you can get, and I will die on that hill lol. Good video.

Yamiks screaming in the background about how bad the MK 4 is because it's heavier and tankier vs the Mk3

I feel like soon we’ll be finding out that the asp scout is amazing at AX combat.

I’m so happy to see this. I’ve been wondering how the mk4 would be. You make this look so incredibly easy.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes this ship.

Always amazing to watch your videos - well done !!

When I go into a CZ the V4 is the last ship I want to engage. Hard to hit and tough, I'll take on a Python or Cutter any day over going after a Viper 4.

Amazing as always 😁👍

Wonderful to see one of my favourite ships getting a chance to shine

I've always liked the look of this ship. Good to know it's a great fa off ship. Perhaps I can learn it on ps4 more easily with this.

Well I certainly didn't expect those results. Might have to give it a try.

My third ship ever purchased.

Whenever I’m not broke I’m going to support you guys! :)

Only 34 comments? Let's push that algorithm up a tinsy little itty bitty bit 😋

Great video! Just the reason I needed to buy a Viper Mk IV. How much of that build is just what you had in inventory? There's an AXI build for the Viper Mk IV that's pretty similar, but it uses lightweight armor and puts the super capacitors experimental on the distributor, instead. It ends up having similar stats to yours, so maybe I'm overthinking this.

Please tell me you're gonna push a sidewinder.

Kate, I know this is super old, but did you actually engage the thargon swarms at all? Could you run without the flak entirely?

*sad distro noises*

Sonebody got bounty hunter build for the viper mk4

After a bunch of your videos, I am pretty sure that you can kill hydras with a potato.

Anyone else think the Xeno scanner and Shutdown field neutraliser should be optional internals not Utility?? If makes AX trickier not using them..

Goid coms since Kate appeard goid 1 : ITS PURPLE !! ITS PRUPLE !! goid 2 : Calm down goid 1...command its that purple ship again ,it appears smaller then usual , what should we do goid command : purple confirmed...you had a nice bug life , we will tell your swarms at home that you died bravely goid 1&2 : excuse me !?

dropship next, pls
