As I don't have that much time for grinding, I have what some would say "incomplete" exploration ship. In fact, what hurts the most is my 4D Life Support not having the Lightweight engineering. But the other modules are fine without being 100% engineered. With no hardpoints, a single Heatsink (for emergencies) and the best FSD out there, my Mandalay comes to almost 75Ly jump range.

Although I have to run it with a deactivated AFMU, my 2-grade engineered 3A Power Plant handles the job pretty well, and my 4D Power Distributor, with a 3-grade Engine Focus that still maintains my flying capabilities and maneuverability. My 4D Thrusters are not engineered yet, but I'm sure they can get to 400m/s with proper modifications. The 4D Sensors are Lightweight engineered and the Fuel Tank is the standard.

My 6A Fuel Scoop ables me to refuel in 10s, and the Guardian FSD makes sure I can reach a system with an scoopable star. The 4A AFMU is enough to repair to FSD after many neutron star boosting and I have 16T of cargo so I can bring some Repair and Collector Limpets. My 3A Shield Generator is there just in case I bump on the ground on a planetary expedition. And a Supercruise Assist is always useful!!

I really like the mandalay because it's a bomber, it gets close, shoots and runs away and having excellent maneuverability makes everything easier! I found the base of this build on reddit and edited it, since I didn't like the cost.

I took advantage of an incomplete build recommended by some friends to put together one specifically for me, and this was the result:

I tried to keep the ship good for various functions, the famous “jack of all trades”. The ship had a good amount of shielding for its size with the 4D Shield Generator in addition to the shield boosters. In addition, I tried to ensure a good amount of space for fuel to guarantee long journeys on some missions, which is why I added the 5C Fuel Tank.

I haven't completed the Hardpoints yet due to financial difficulties hahaha, but I'm on my way. I've ensured a good variety of weapons to guarantee success in battles.

As I see the Mandalay as a very versatile ship, I've tried to perfect various sides of it with this build!

đŸ’„ The Mandalay, a new ship introduced in Elite Dangerous, is designed for exploration, boasting a significant jump range that can be further enhanced through engineering.   Base Jump Range: The base jump range of the Mandalay, without any modifications or engineering, is around 39 light-years. This is already a respectable range for an exploration vessel. 🚀 This Video : ➀Link:

I love the ship and use it not only for exploration, but also for OnFoot missions.
