Overview

Auricom sports the heaviest craft in the F3600 League in the shape of the A.R. 2700 Model B, supported by a good top speed. Thrust and handling capabilities are average though. This craft appears to be more suited to open racetracks, but its mass also makes it very resistant to weapon impact with minimal loss of speed, so as to keep going. A good choice on long tracks which could see a lot of weapons flying about.

Trivia

• Although the technical data suggests three engines, the actual ship has two nozzles, revealing that there are only two engines. Compared to other ships, Auricom's may have a protruding housing behind the cockpit, which might be meant to house the missing third engine.
• This is one of the two ships in the game to feature Pir-hana airbrake technology, the other being the AG Systems 3240ii SRX.
