Q&A: Mirai Fury

Now that the Fury, Fury MX, and Fury LX from Mirai have been added to the 'verse, we posed a few questions to the Vehicle team about the new set of snub ships. Here are the answers, straight from the designers themselves.

What's the smallest ship the Fury can fit in easily?
The smallest ship we intended for the Fury to fit inside is the Drake Cutlass Black, though the Consolidated Outland Nomad can also fit one in its rear cargo bay.

Can the weapons on the Fury be replaced with missile racks (or vice versa with the MX)?
No, the Fury's weapon mounts are not interchangeable with missile racks, the same as any other ship. Given their size, the MX's missile racks are bespoke, so only the missiles themselves are able to be swapped for different types.

How does the Fury perform relative to the Merlin and Archimedes in speed, agility, firepower, and durability?
Pretty well! Speed and agility-wise, it is very competitive, though this is at the expense of durability.

Does the Fury have any personal storage or weapon racks?
There is no space for a weapon rack. However, there is a small personal storage area.

How does the Fury compare to light fighters like the Anvil Arrow?
Quite favorably. While it is a “snub” due to the lack of quantum drive, it was designed by Mirai to go toe-to-toe with other light fighters and has a weapon loadout to compete against them. Like other light fighters, its weakness is its durability and, given its size, a few well-placed shots can be catastrophic.

Does the Fury have an ejection mechanism for the pilot?
No, it does not.

How does the Fury's power signature compare to other snub ships?
It is comparable as they all share a similar set of power, shielding, and cooling components, with only the weapons differentiating their power requirements.

Does the Fury leverage any alien technology in its design?
Mirai is a sub-brand of MISC, so benefits from the parent company’s relationship with the Xi’an race. As such, the Fury utilizes alien thruster technology, which can be seen at the rear of the ship.

How well does the Fury fly in-atmosphere compared to space?
Above average compared to other ships. Given its low mass and thrusters that can hit many angles of thrust, it’s one of the easier ships to fly in-atmosphere.




How safe is the glass cabin for combat?
As safe as it can be given its visibility requirements. The MX has a deployable blast shield that provides some extra damage resistance.




What do you call a group of more than one Fury?
The Fast and the Furyous.

How does the Mirai Fury LX perform compared to other dedicated racing ships?
Compared to the existing racing ships and snub fighters, it is the most agile of the current line up at this moment in time. The tradeoff for losing its entire arsenal of weapons is the superior handling performance, but it is not without drawbacks. The Fury and Fury MX’s weak spot is their low resilience to damage and lack of fuel, and the LX is even further reduced on both of those.







Is there a benefit of a dedicated racing snub over a dedicated racing ship?
The primary benefit is the reduced overall size, allowing you to navigate tighter spaces more easily.




The Fury LX doesn’t come with any weapons. What does it gain in exchange? Does the reduced weight significantly impact its top speed or maneuverability compared to other Fury variants?
Virtually all areas of performance are improved over the base Fury. SCM and max speed are increased as well as acceleration parameters, which is achieved by additional maneuvering thrusters on the wings.




Is the Fury LX’s strength in acceleration or maneuverability?
Both are improved over the base Fury.




Does the Fury LX benefit from innovative Xi’an technology? For example, can the engines boost longer or can the pilot withstand higher g-forces?
Beyond what Xi’an technology benefits the base Fury chassis, there is nothing added.




Does the lack of weapons mean the Fury LX can fit in ships that the other variants can’t?
Not by design. While the profile slightly changes due to lack of weaponry, it fitting into additional ships was not a design consideration.

Jetzt, wo die Fury und die Fury MX von Mirai dem Verse hinzugefügt wurden, haben wir dem Fahrzeugteam ein paar Fragen zu den neuen Stupsschiffen gestellt. Hier sind die Antworten, direkt von den Designern selbst.

Was ist das kleinste Schiff, in das die Fury problemlos hineinpasst?
Das kleinste Schiff, in das die Fury passen soll, ist die Drake Cutlass Black, aber auch der Consolidated Outland Nomad kann eine Fury in seinem hinteren Laderaum unterbringen.

Können die Waffen der Fury durch Raketenständer ersetzt werden (oder umgekehrt bei der MX)?
Nein, die Waffenhalterungen der Fury sind nicht gegen Raketenständer austauschbar, genau wie bei jedem anderen Schiff. Aufgrund ihrer Größe sind die Raketenständer der MX maßgeschneidert, sodass nur die Raketen selbst gegen andere Typen ausgetauscht werden können.

Wie schneidet die Fury im Vergleich zur Merlin und Archimedes in Bezug auf Geschwindigkeit, Wendigkeit, Feuerkraft und Haltbarkeit ab?
Ziemlich gut! In puncto Geschwindigkeit und Wendigkeit ist sie sehr konkurrenzfähig, allerdings auf Kosten der Haltbarkeit.

Hat die Fury einen persönlichen Stauraum oder ein Waffenregal?
Es gibt keinen Platz für ein Waffenregal. Allerdings gibt es einen kleinen persönlichen Stauraum.

Wie schneidet die Fury im Vergleich zu leichten Jägern wie dem Anvil Arrow ab?
Ziemlich gut. Obwohl er wegen des fehlenden Quantenantentriebes ein "Snub" ist, wurde er von Mirai so entworfen, dass er mit anderen leichten Jägern mithalten kann, und er verfügt über eine Waffenausstattung, die es mit ihnen aufnehmen kann. Wie bei anderen leichten Jägern liegt seine Schwäche in seiner Widerstandsfähigkeit und angesichts seiner Größe können ein paar gut platzierte Schüsse katastrophale Folgen haben.

Hat die Fury einen Auswurfmechanismus für den Piloten?
Nein, hat sie nicht.

Wie ist die Energiesignatur der Fury im Vergleich zu anderen Snub-Schiffen?
Sie ist vergleichbar, da sie alle ähnliche Energie-, Schild- und Kühlkomponenten haben, nur die Waffen unterscheiden sich in ihrem Energiebedarf.

Nutzt die Fury außerirdische Technologien für ihr Design?
Mirai ist eine Untermarke von MISC und profitiert daher von den Beziehungen der Muttergesellschaft zum Volk der Xi'an. Daher nutzt die Fury außerirdische Triebwerkstechnologie, die am Heck des Schiffes zu sehen ist.

Wie gut fliegt die Fury in der Atmosphäre im Vergleich zum Weltraum?
Im Vergleich zu anderen Schiffen überdurchschnittlich gut. Aufgrund ihrer geringen Masse und der Triebwerke, die viele Schubwinkel erreichen können, ist sie eines der leichteren Schiffe, die in der Atmosphäre fliegen.

Wie sicher ist die Glaskabine im Kampf?
So sicher wie es angesichts der Sichtverhältnisse möglich ist. Der MX verfügt über einen ausfahrbaren Schutzschild, der zusätzlichen Schutz vor Schäden bietet.

Wie nennt man eine Gruppe mit mehr als einer Fury?
Die Schnellen und die Wütenden.
