The Anvil C8X Pisces Expedition is a special variant of the C8 Pisces. It can be stored inside the Carrack and can be launched from its hangar bay. The ship is meant for scouting, reconnaissance and exploring environments inaccessible to the Carrack. It also features two additional jump seats for extra passengers. It also contains space for 4 SCU of cargo. Additionally, while it doesn't come equipped with one standard, the ship can also be equipped with a Jump Module. The C8X variant is recognizable by its slightly whiter paint job than the standard C8 Pisces, and it has four weapon hardpoints instead of two.
