i really need a master level ship that i can solo in currently my yt-1300 its impossible to solo in it cause i have to run back and forth to the turrets. The KSE firespray is what i want to solo in but the problem is its impossible to get inless your really rich and have over 4 mil credits
so m-21 kryt is the only ship i can get in my budget i found a guy who will make me one for 300k which is good deal for me so the question is could i solo real well in this ship? i dont want himt to make it for me only to have it to where i cant use it with 1 person/
i have a ryxxik bomber but i really want a higher level gunship with more mass
i have1 day till he makes it so can anyone throw me some ideas please

The Krayt is one of the most capable fighters there is.
It has the mass and guns of a B-wing buy handles like an X-wing. Its really to manuverable for its mass and weapons. But get one. YT is nota one person ship.

What the above poster said. 
There is no better ship in JTl at present then the Krayt. Having someone in the turret to man that gun is just a nice little bonus

210K mass - same as a firespray, 30K less than a B-Wing.
3 blaster slots, and a turret. With the mass to handle those blasters and a good agility, especially cmpared to the B-Wing,it is the best PvE ship in game, IMHO.

The M22 Krayt has the same turning and speed alteration stats as M12 Kimogola. It's a bit longer and about 100k heavier with the bonus turret. I'm using an engine with a high rate of turningand it works a treat.
That being said ... with the right RE'd equipment, you can pve in a kihraxz ... it just takes a little longer

Krayt rules PvE. Krayt 4 teh win! Or whatever the kids say these days. Yeah, it's a good ship out of the box even with basic gear (manufactured or salvaged) for PvE. With high end RE'd gear it's still no PvP dogfighter but it can cut through and outmaneuver AI ships like butter. Only one missile tube but who needs torps, they cost money to use anyhow,if you have three massive guns crammed up your nose? Also like the speed. Getting from spawn to spawn with massive engines and boosters helps you out bigtime in PvE, also with escapes from close calls.

Yeah, it's nice being able to take a friend up with you for a flight but it doesn't effect the krayt much when you don't have a gunner. Still have three weapons for the pilot and as was mentioned the krayt is very manovrible for it's size.

Bwing has 240K mass, and 4 forward guns + 2 missles.
Krayt has 210K mass and 3 forward guns + 1 MP turret + 1 missle.
Off the top of my head...,
Xwing YPR accelration rates are like
5.2 or 5.4 Pitch, 3.X yaw, and 2.5 roll or so.
Krayt is 1.7 YPR accross the board and 0.9 roll i believe.

I was hard-pressed to replace my Dunelizard, but the Krayt makes up in firepower for the lack of high maneuverability. And you learn to compensate for that lacking pretty quickly. Having someone in the turret makes PvEing more fun...especially if they're a new pilot.
It's a great fighter.
