Today, I'm going to discuss the ships best-suited to medical players, whether in concept or release. I can't promise you will agree with me, but I do hope I give you some things to consider.

Right off the bat, I will admit that picking the ships to fill out your fleet is a highly-personal and completely-subjective exercise at the best of times. It gets even more complicated when you look at just how many ships are still trapped in concept, since many players refuse to buy 'jpegs' which they can't even fly.

That said, there are seven announced ships which could suit a space-medic, four released, three unreleased or otherwise unavailable ships, plus one option that seems to have fallen off everyone's radar.

In game, we have:

• Anvil C8R Pisces Rescue
• Drake Cutlass Red
• Origin 890 Jump
• Aegis Carrack

Unreleased options so far are:

• RSI Apollo
• RSI Galaxy Medical Module
• MISC Endeavour Hope-Class

Each ship has a distinct identity, so let's look at them all.
