The Buccaneer is a light fighter developed by StarCitizen:Drake Interplanetary. It has been engineered to operate and engage in combat in a manner that reflects the lifestyle of its users. This agile craft is built to navigate and contend effectively beyond its expected capabilities, and complements fellow Drake ships like the StarCitizen:Cutlass Black or the StarCitizen:Caterpillar. As a resilient frontier combat vessel, it is capable of being serviced under the most challenging conditions, ensuring the survival of genuine, operational space crews.<ref name="Buccaneer_Launch">Template:Cite RSI</ref>

Lore
When Drake Interplanetary set about developing a dedicated fighter, they didn't do it in a vacuum: they wanted a ship that would work alongside their entire lineup. This newest entry to the Drake catalog is an agile scrapper, something intended to take hits without breaking the bank on repairs and maintenance needs. The Buccaneer also needed to provide ample support to either the StarCitizen:Cutlass or StarCitizen:Caterpillar while also having the range of travel to safely cover a StarCitizen:Herald. To meet these goals, the engineers at Drake opted for a single-seat, maneuverable fighter built expressly for combat, with plenty of capacity to alter its loadout to quickly move between close-range fire support and long-range escort. A purpose-built ship, the Buccaneer is ready to stand toe-to-toe with any other fighter in its size class.<ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref>
