If you tend to travel through different systems and occasionally have a large haul that needs to be brought with you, the Silent Runner is one of the best picks for you.
This massive ship offers the ability to carry a huge load of cargo while also having a powerful Grav Drive and other components to help you jump to other systems quickly.
While it may be expensive and only purchasable at one location, the Silent Runner is the perfect ship for those who often bring back a lot of loot when they return to their ship.
How To Get Silent Runner Ship?
The Silent Runner is one of the unique ships that you can purchase but it is not available at most locations and is currently known to be only sold by HopeTech.
To reach HopeTech, you will need to make your way to the planet Polvo, which can be found in the Valo System that shares its area with Narion.
You will often only see Narion on your map (northeast of Alpha Centauri) but when you select Narion, you will have the option to head to the Valo system.
Select Polvo and land in Hopetown, which is where you will find the HopeTech building that has a woman named Inaya Rehman at the sales counter.
