No, The Eagle has a better turning radious.
And there was a guy who posted it somewhere, but I'm not sure where he or it is. It would be a spoiler anyway.

Edit: Damn spelling.

the titan is one of the slowest as are frieghters

What's the point in living if you can't feel alive?

@Gowerspaul - please, not a best ship thread!

Cardy i wasn't suggesting we start one, red_green wanted to know the turning radius of ships so i told him two of the ones that i think are the slowest

What's the point in living if you can't feel alive?

Light fighters turn better than heavy. Heavy better than Very heavy (although eagle comes close to even). Very heavy better than freighters. For VHF, it goes Eagle, Sabre, Titan. Just general info, not a spoiler. --- VH16

Whoever came up with "Mission Commision" should be lined up and shot

Hehe! He asked here as well. I put it in code there and it looks a bit better. Have fun!

No way! The Drake has a turnrate of 99, the Starflier has a turnrate of 95 and the Patriot has a turnrate of only 90!!!
That can't be right, can it?

Anyone like to hazard a guess at the missing turn rates?

I hate incomplete tables, almost as much as damn formatting in HTML (that one for Earendil !! By the time I got it sorted out, you'd already posted a link, so I deleted it for about the 10th time, albeit nice and straight and lined up that time !!)

no one got more info?

I think if this table is true, that answers the question about the best VHF, if the nomads guns where not mountable, there would be a chance for Sabre or Titan to beat and Eagle, since the extra energy will be the most important difference, but since the energy is not an issue do to nomads guns, that give Eagle pilots the upper hand specialy if they are good and know how to escape the reverse thrust or kill engine tricks from Sabre or titan best pilots and use CM/CD to escape mines and missles (even a drake good pilot could beat Best Titan pilot with smart mount).

I always thought that the Drake had the fastest turning ratio, even faster that the Patriot. In battles with Eagles it amazed me how long I lasted twisting and turning. Of course I couldn't bear guns the Eagle and only lots of head-on missle shots would make a kill.

Since the rates are in degrees per sec and some are missing it leads me to believe someone may have actually flew the ship and subjectively tried to measure it. There are numbers in the applicable INI file though that relates to turn rates. What the key is called or what the number represents I have no clue except it increases in ships that are more maneuverable. Maybe something can be inferred from those numbers.
