English Electric Lightning... Not British. Long day... Early start 😊
"What a time to be a Commander"
Yes, what a time.
What a time!
@@aitoluxd What a Time!
I was hoping for a new exploration ship. I was not expecting it to be a zorgon Peterson.
A lot of fun is going to be had with this ship.
Agreed and it looks so good I can't wait
I'm right with you and it is immediately going to replace my Krait. I LOVE the design.
I love the design as well, though for an exploration ship, I would have liked a better view from the cockpit unless I'm missing something.
I was headed to the outer edge of the galaxy....now I need to turn around and get back to the bubble so I can get one and head back out
@@GravitySandwich1 Same here, for planetary landings you can't the cockpit design of the Krait 2 or the Type 6, I mean what's the point of having lights to light up your landing area below the ship if you can't actually see the landing area from inside the ship.
When I saw this thumbnail I was shocked. It's beautiful, they really went all in with the art for these new ships.
Yes it looks slick!
Daaaamn, Frontier is COOKIN with these new ships. I'm loving the progress, keep it comin, maybe I'll come back 😂
Why wouldn't you come back? Elite is awesome!
Exactly how much do you need to be appeased to play a video game?
@@keyloh9386 I came back to Elite from SC. My Corsair is collecting dust. SC is clearly in trouble with their scam marketing and amateur broken devolving software. Looking forward to flying the Mandalay. Thank you Frontier! Keep them coming!
Some of us got what we needed out of Elite but are looking for a reason to come back, that's all
@@DawnTreaderPlaysEDO Many of us left when Odyssey launched. In combination with old bugs that never got fixed, they introduced loads more bugs and first person shooter gameplay that felt completely out of place with the flight sim nature horizons became so well-known for. We wanted to walk around inside our ships, and walk around outside our ships, but the fps gameplay is pretty tedious and unoriginal.
So much detail! Lovely video. And yes, this is the ship I've been waiting for.
...in the way 😆
Considering the criticism you guys gave the T8 my first thought was "I bet the GND folks will like this"
@@VilkarinSalvokath The Type-8 Forklift has its place. It's brilliantly well adapted for SCO, and all that cargo space is great. I'm currently working on some useful builds. But yes, the Burmese Cobra / Mandalay looks likely to be amazing for exploration.
@@GalnetDigest the T-8 Existor is an excellent exploration vessel, the new meta for tritium mining to support a deep space carrier, the new meta for medium cargo ships, and a pretty solid medium passenger vessel.
Plus it looks absolutely bonkers with the ridiculous ship kit they came out with for it.
Great to see positivity around elite again. Love it ❤
oh there were lots of us always positive about it lol. It was always clear it was not going anywhere soon! :D
I hope we get 4 ships a year. Their ship designers are on fire.
I don't think we'll keep getting so spoiled in 2025.
Frontier is urgently trying to get some money this year, and decided to work on E:D since it's one of their best games.
That being said, powerplay and base building are still not there, so I expect different aspects of the game to be overhauled next year, with less focus on so many new ships.
@@rocket2739 Yeah, my hopium is pretty high right now.
I hope so as well... I will continue to purchase new ships to support the company and game I love to play.
We can hope that they add more ships going forward.
Surprise alternative for fitting on the medium pad: just before touchdown, the ship rotates 90 degrees and lands facing to starboard!
That would be very interesting
Would have been cool if the wings folded up when you land like modern naval carrier craft.
Oooooo, now there's an interesting idea! Probably not, but that would be cool.
@@grumbotron4597 idk how it should work to fold the wings up and still matching into a medium hangar bay. Now when I seeing the ship standing on his high landing gear plus this big belly is very difficult to believe, that folded wings are the way to match. Even the height of the Type 8 is very close to need a large bay😂 imo it makes more sense, when the ship need to do a 90° turn . Of course it is a very new method parking a ship in a station but who knows.
So large wings for a spaceship. I like the design but the aerodynamic criteria in the void is... Well, nice design
The stream literally just finished 😂 that’s commitment 👌
TH-camrs get early access to the news
@@Mittzys To be precise those content creators (youtube or Twitch etc) who participate in the Elite Partner Program.
Fine! FINE Frontier, you win... I'll start playing again. That wall of keybinds though...
At least it's not DCS with bindings per aircraft
Okay. This ship might actually get me into exploring. It's gorgeous.
Wow that one has my interest.
Side note, the F-35 series is universally called the Lightning II, throwback to the P-38. Just like how the A-10 is the Thunderbolt II as a throwback to the P-47
Best looking ship yet I think, defo will be getting one, reminds me of Peter Quills ship in "Guardians of the Galaxy".
As an avid exobiologist, 100%. I love the small features of the spot lights and the forward facing exit. If it has really good handling in atmosphere, my dbx is going to become a bubble hopper. I'll gladly land a medium pad on a rocky body if that's the ship.
I sincerely hope this ship SUCKS. My DBX has been too good to me all these years... I'd hate to leave it behind on future voyages.
@@PowerofRock24 I think you should expand your horizons. Leave behind tradition and take a Fer-De-Lance to Sagittarius A. Bend the rules.
@@bobdenbeste182 now THAT would be a sight to see, an FDL jumping 10-15 ly at a time to sag A* in full combat build lmao
Will 100% be buying the day it's available. I'm happy to support Frontier to continue developing for Elite. This ship all but confirms that more atmospheric planets are on the roadmap. While ships have always had moving and vectoring parts, they've always been space-oriented and never anything frivolous. I also have a feeling the wings will fold but not in a way that we expect them to, the obvious choice would be like a F14, or like a bird folding its wings to the side. Fdev is rarely as straight forward and obvious with their designs. Looking forward to it!
I bet the Mandala's wings would fold like the F6F Hellcat's. Seeing your words on the atmospheric ships I wonder if there will will maneuvering flaps like the F-4 Phantom's on current ships.
By the way, the Cobra does use thrust vectoring in maneuvering.
@@Soundwave142 it sure does, so do several others too like the diamondbacks, I believe Mamba, and a couple others.
Damn! That WAS fast! You ARE the Frontier News Network. This and Powerplay 2 are out on my birthday month!
Definite Firefly vibes to the new ship with the gooseneck cockpit, rotating nacelles, and landing gear.
Yes, indeed. It looks like if the serenity and the prometheus from the alien franchise had a baby.
nope. thats a fairy air force sylph recon plane front end. from yukkikaze. not at all firefly junk.
Take my money frontier, I want this and more! I don’t mind throwing a little money there way every once in a while. This game has brought me many years of enjoyment and I want to see it grow. It has so much potential!
Their new designs have been so eye-wateringly gorgeous, and this has got to be the best one yet.
You would think that it would be Gutamaya ship considering how beautiful it is.
WOWWWW. Elite community WE ARE SOO BACK!!!! 😎 this ship is beautiful !!!.
Okay, that ship is absolutely beautiful, and might just bring me back to the game once again. Sweeeet!
Now THAT'S a ship.....simply awesome design.......
October can't come soon enough. TAKE MY MONEY!
You found a much better image of the Lightning jet than was used on stream.
Probably due to licensing
Loving this ship's look and purpose. Hope it's a sign of things to come.
Whoever they hired this year, giving us these ships should get raise.
Fold-up wings totally make sense and has been a feature of many aircraft, especially carrier-based aircraft for more than 80 years. I would be shocked if the Mandalay didn't have them.
Why would an Explorer ship (I.e. Long fuel range) need fold up wings? It's not fitting in tight spaces because it's flying there itself.
It's also a feature of the F-35C.
As opposed to the folding engines, which come from the F-35B.
@@AiMaTay It still needs to use landing pads from time to time to turn in the data, get repairs, change equipment, etc... If it really is a medium ship, those wings will need to fold up in order to hit inside the hanger.
If they did fold, I expect it to fold like the F6F Hellcats's wings.
🙏PLEASE, give us ship interiors and my life is forever bonded to this game.
I am in love. This beauty will be so gorgeous in chrome or even polarity black.
I LOVE the aesthetics of this ship!
That ship looks absolutely awesome! Fingers crossed for SLF - that wound be a cherry on top!
I never knew that explorers used a fighter to explore. Though, I do not find myself too excited for one to be honest, it would be helpful for dealing with the riff raff that decides to cause you trouble when traveling. Though it makes me wonder, if they do, I wonder if FDEV with add a "probe fighter," unarmed maybe but has features like the SRV's scanner or carry an SRV itself! Speaking of combat, hope the firepower is at least that of a DBX or a Asp Explorer.
Of the three so far, this one gets me the most excited.
Getting things we've been asking about for years... all within 2024? Where is FDev and who are these guys.
Now we just need player outposts so I can have a space cow ranch and park my space cattle carrier overhead and we're set, I'll never leave my VR.
I would like to see a fighter bay in this ship for the exact reasons that were stated: for scouting purposes. Also interested in seeing what the internals look like as well. There is also one other thing I'd like to se introduced to the game as well: a shuttle that can be used for exploration / scouting purposes. Give it a pulse laser or mini-gun for defense; maybe a cargo space of 8 to 12 tons. A variant of this could be a shuttle that can carry and SRV. Seems like a match made in Elite Dangerous Heaven. :) Bummer about P.P. 2 being pushed back a month.
A "fighter" with exobio would really make my day. Maybe a class 2 or 3 slot. One single fighter, no replacements, etc.
I'd adore a SLF that had some cargo capacity. I constantly get caught out by jumping in the Anaconda or Type-9 and find that there's nowhere to land and offload cargo.
dont think it will be needed. its a tiny ship. the cockpit is large compared to its body. probably a little smaller than the mamba.
Exobiology is what this ship screams.
the manoucerability and atmospheric flight, the jump range, yes. But the cock-pit has slightly limited downward view maybe? Skimming surfaces at a nose-down angle is doable but not ideal.... we'll see. Absolutely love the ship tho....
Now we just need a hoverbike to get to those pesky Frutexa and other snotty plants in the high mountains where your buggy keeps on flipping itself or getting stuck on rocks, and your ship point blankly refuses to land.
My next trip to Beagle Point will be in this beautiful ship! Your Elite content is second to none Commander Buur! o7
They absolutely deserve my money with this new ship, I loved the game so much, I got so much out of it, it's time to give some more love back!
I am very excited by this renewed vigor by the Fdevs. I thought Elite was in decline, but I was wrong. I hope they keep it up.
People have been thinking Elite is in decline for at least the last 8 years, but Fdev keep proving them wrong. Long may it continue!
This ship is simply beautiful. I love the reuse of the mamba canopy here, It has always been my favorite.
Seems they saw how good my Mamba explorer was and decided to make it even better.
Looks pretty cool.
YEEEESSSS! I knew it! Combat, Trading, and now EXPLORATION! It’s AWESOME!
Damn, it was pretty clear they were going to add an exploration ship, I had just hoped it to be a small one so it would be better suited for exobiology.
I love exploring. I am going to get this one. The setup of this one shows that they listened to the explorers complaints and advice. Thanks, guys..
Yes. Yes I will be getting the pre-release version. I wonder if there will be a "stellar" version.
There almost certainly will.
I came back to Elite about a week ago.
I've really been enjoying it!
Im an explorer, and when you said exploration, I got very excited. Im gunna have to start my journey back to the bubble soon to pick 1 of these up when it releases.
you can always count on the buurpit!
Thank you ❤
Love the look and care that has gone into the design. Will definitely pick one up but not through early access, only when available in game.
So, it's not the imperial explorer afterr all. And that's ok, looks great!
The wing tips of the Mandalay look like they have utility points on them
Might be interesting to put point defense there for Guardian Ruins
Don't need no point defense for Guardian Ruins. Just kill those sentries before they shoot their missiles.
@@henryvaneyk3769 True, but I still need to get a ton of weapon blueprints so I'll be dealing with a lot more than when mat farming
I like all of the new ships! Nice work Frontier! I'm betting there will be some wing folding happening on this baby. Nice! o7
This ship is beautiful! With the big wings it looks like a mix of a big Eagle, the Milano from Guardians of the Galaxy, and a VTOL fighter jet. And the unusual name gives it a bit more character. Not many ships have made me want to pre-buy at first sight but I'm heavily considering this one! Is it possible the wings fold backwards?
excellent, I'll start playing elite again once this is out.
So I'm beginning to think that Frontier finally seem to understand the importance of ED to their bottom line and the huge potential it has. Someone has been looking at the tech demos coming out of CIG and now we're finally going to get atmospheric landings maybe??! God I hope so! There's some earthlikes I found way out of the bubble that I've always wanted to explore!
I'm definitely seeing the primary inspiration being the "Milano" from the first 2 Guardians of the Galaxy movies, in addition to some elements from military aircraft such as the already mentioned Electric Lightning and F-35.
Either way I hope the ship is at least competent in combat, Similar to the Krait Phantom.
As a long-time fan of exploration in the Phantom, and the Mamba's unique styling, I'm definitely looking forward to seeing if the Mandalay can combine the best of both.
Glad to see Fdev are trying new designs in their ships, keep them coming.
Ooooo! Now we’re cooking! This is going to suit my gameplay perfectly. A stunning explorer, can’t wait to fly it into the black.
Wow that ship is beautiful! ED is knocking it out of the park with these new ships. And they just keep getting better. Also I’m glad it’s not a gutamya ship like many speculated.
I'm so glad we were wrong with that prediction!! 😅🎉
I bet that the tips of the mandalay wings will fold upwards when landed
I bet the entire wing lifts up, hinged right by the central engine bulge
I am genuinely so happy. I've played on and off since release and I'm coming back !! See you in the black o7
Love the look of it and some nice features too
The wings wouldn't have to move much to come within the limits of a medium pad.
If they are hinged where they join the main hull then they could use the extra height of the ship to dip slightly downwards bringing the wibg tips inside the medium pad.
This is a brilliant summary of the new ship. Thank you Buur Pit!
Wonderful!!!! Got a get some more ARX ready. Maybe it will fit sideways on the landing pad. I hope the stats on this thing stack up with the Anaconda or the Krait Phantom.
Ooooh, I really like the sleek winged design! Role wise, I see it as the younger, sexier brother of the Asp Explorer.
so pretty :> looks like the wings fold down when it's landing
These new updates got me back into the game and I don't regret it for a second.
@@lukasdontknow7194 interesting days, aren't they. O7
I can't wait to get back into Elite, saving up for a new HOTAS...
Heck yeah, I'll be picking one up. I was hoping we'd get a new exploration vessel but this is really slick looking. It may well be my new favorite ship!
I am sooooo happy i cant explain. It looks soo cool
So nice to see new ships. I'm very happy that I stuck with Elite through the "lean years". Looks like they are coming out of that era at full speed. This might just replace my beloved DBX as my favorite explorer. Keep it up FDev!
Amazing! I’m in love with Mandalay ❤
I really like the style of this model. It would be cool to see more QoL updates with this ship.
Love the fact that you had a little more info then was on the stream! Definitely getting this when it comes out. I grabbed the Python MkII and the Type 8 in early access and think they are great additions. This one looks to follow that same trend. Personally, I'd like it to have a little better hardpoint setup then the DBX, match or slightly better it in internal compartments, and hit that spot between the DBX and Anaconda for jump range, getting closer to the Anaconda. I would have loved something that beat the Anaconda, but rivaling it works as well.
The new ship looks fantastic. Now they're going to have to start dropping a hint or two about the last ship.
Great job getting this out to us just as the stream ended!
Another ship for the shopping list, it's gorgeous, roll on patch day.
New ship looks gorgeous, love the directional engines. Interesting comment about handling in atmosphere
I love it! Been building towards my next big expedition for the last few weeks, based on a DBX. Now I might put that on hold until I get get my hands on the Mandalay instead. I love the design, very very cool.
I'm loving it, it looks completely different, I WILL be getting this one ASAP
I got to give you props mate people like you and OAnt still dropping news n updates on this game after all these years nearly 10 years i been playing this game. And though i had a dry spell over the last 18 months this video has really woken up the CMDR in me again. Cannot wait!!! 🎉
Looks great and looking forward to more stats…and you’re right, it’s been great being back in elite , discovering on foot and getting my kit upgraded, whilst being grindy has been really interesting, thanks for your previous on foot vids, they’ve been very useful 👍
My favorite new ship so far. I'll be buying one of these!! Thanks CMDR Buur!
You are amazing! It sure is an exciting time to fly. O7
@theBuurPit So much for Rheeney's and my guess for a Gutamaya explorer. As for the split wings, there appears to be a seam between the wing jets and the intake nacelle just next to them closer to the main fuselage, and with both being angled, they could serve as hinge stops to fold the wings up for storage on a medium pad. Just my thoughts though ...
They have said on twitter that the images shared are concepts so I'd imagine it's close to final bit not final, so you could be right on it there! 😉
That new ship is certainly slick as hell, I am so returning for this game for sure this time. :D
This is SUCH a cool ship that I'll barely use because it's an explorer, I hope we get some more Zorgon Peterson combat ships if they keep looking like this.
OHHH i'm in love...... I agree, there is most likely going to be upward retracting wing sections on landing, concept withstanding. There doesn't' appear to be as much cargo space as current medium ships but with exploring that isn't needed as much. Shield, FSD booster, AMU, scoop, hanger, scanner, and a couple option spots and that is all that is needed. This will certainly outshine the phantom in long range medium class ships. If atmosphere design is coming into play, so perhaps will thick atmosphere planets, we can only hope :)
Impressive, Can't wait to get me one of these. 2 or 3 new ships a year for 3 or 4 years would be a good thing.
I can already imagine having one of these for planetary ops. firing a few dumb fire missiles to remove scavengers and then landing to retrieve something from a crash site
The Ziggy Pete Mandalay looks fantastic. I wonder if those wings could fold.
Someone may have mentioned this previously, however I don't think wings fold UP, I think they rotate and fold *back* akin to a TBF Avenger from the US Navy in World War 2. That rotation position could be just outboard of the wing engines, allowing for it to fit onto a medium pad. This could be 'automatic' if you are landing on a pad vs landing on a planet OR it could be a new control to affect how the gear operates. It's tough to tell from the rendering, but if there are spotlights on the TOPS of the wings(which kind of looks like there are) that would reinforce the idea that they rotate & fold back.
As far as purchasing one? It's LIKELY, but I'm going to wait for more information on internals & performance.....
Fdev finally managed to win me back with this ship. This looks amazing 👌
Very pretty ship. Interesting allusions to atmospheric flight. Food for thought certainly.
yes ill pick one up in early release. I kinda want it NOWWWW
as an Explorer im looking forward to this new ship. it looks fantastic!!! :)
beautiful ship that, one thing ive always wanted to see is different cockpit ui, hopefully they will consider that one day
Loving it. Well done, FDev....finally!
Ailerons on the wings? Downward facong lights. VTOL engines? I think landing on the thicker-atmosphere planets is edging nearer.
This is all I ever wanted.. just more of this stuff and I'll be happy
The main issue for me is the SLF. Seriously, I need those with me on long voyages or space madness takes over, I speed with main ships and ultimately get destroyed.
Things are getting better and better... The type 8 is awesome, but this desing is something else...!!!
