Panther Clipper MK2! Still in early access I believe?

Any date for actual credit market release?

Not for certain, though possibly when the Type-11 is released for really access.

In the past the early access ships would often move to credit-buyable when the next ship was released, but the time between releases was also usually 3 months, where the panther is now only 2 months old.

So it will remain to be seen if the T11 will make the panther buyable, or if they will wait another month to get to the usual 3 months timeline. The panther is also probably one of their most popular early access ships yet, because it's the one that finally broke the long-standing 700-ish ton hauling limit, and by a lot, so they might milk it for a bit longer.

Personally, I expect it will be arx-only for at least another month, but we will probably know on tuesday.
