• Earns enough credits to pay for itself in approximately 1-2 trips.
• Three times better than the Wasp in every way except for speed.
• There was noticeable part overlap in the original model, most notably in the cockpit, creating a "glitchy" effect when looked at.

• When it was first released, the explosion was so powerful that it was able to 1 shot certain battleships.
• If a new player uses all the codes, they can sell their new ships and purchase the Hornet, drastically and quickly improving their in-game progress.
