It can also be said of the Freelancer that it has inspired more debate than any other spacecraft on the market. With a noted engine upgrade capacity and the ability to maneuver better than any other dedicated transport ship, it is no wonder the Freelancer's roles continue to expand. With the range of a transport plus room to install advanced scanning and jump technology, Freelancers have enabled their captains to chart a number of new jump points in recent years. Initially marketed as an efficient long-haul merchant ship for private enterprises, the Freelancer quickly became the ship of choice for dedicated explorers. The Freelancer follows the MiSC-HI concept of extreme modularity on a smaller, more distinctive hull.
