First post. Howdy, everyone.

So, I'm planning out ships for my group's fleet as well as upgrades at launch and so on. I've searched around the net as well as the forums here and various pieces of info I can find, but I haven't found any info regarding this. And frankly, all of the different names for components can be a little confusing.
So, I've scanned some info regarding which ships come with jump drives, which don't, and which might work on others. I'd love the correction if any of these guesses are way off base. (Do we even have the information provided to us yet?) I basically just don't want to have the group buy anything for launch that will end up being useless to us.

Jump Drives: Oracle, Leaper, Leaper Pro, Explorer, and Marauder. (These don't include the unnamed plain "Jump Drive" on the Constellation class ships.


Ship Name - - - Jump - - Weight

Aurora LX - - - Oracle - - 7.5K

Mustang Delta - Leaper - 13K
Mustang Beta - Leaper - 17K
Herald - - - - - Leaper - 18K
F7C-M - - - - - Leaper - 23K
Freelancer - - - Leaper - 26K
Freelancer MIS - Leaper - 30K
Freelancer Max - Leaper - 32K
Freelancer DUR - Leaper Pro - 28K

315P - - - - - - Explorer - 20K

B90 - - - - - - - Excursion - 203K

IDRIS - - - - - - Marauder - 600K
Reclaimer - - - Maurauder - 1.61M

Constellation - "Jump Drive" - 80K

So, will you be able to put an Explorer Jump Drive on a Mustang, Aurora, or Cutlass? Would a Leaper work?
What's the difference between the various types? Is there a difference?
Will a larger Jump Drive work 'better' on a smaller craft if you can indeed use them?

If the above questions are already answered somewhere, I'd love a link to that. If not, can we maybe get some hints from a Dev? ^_^

Thanks for looking.
