Are there pirate versions of the 'heavy' M6 class of ships? And if so are there blueprints available?

No the only pirate M6's are normal variants.

No, there are definitely pirate Centaurs and Ospreys with unique pirate paintjobs--they usually only appear in station defence missions, though, in my experience.

OP is asking for the "Heavy" M6 versions though; Heavy Osprey, Heavy Centaur, etc.

I'm fairly certain the only NGO superpower to have a heavy M6 are the Xenon with their PX.

I do have blueprints for both pirate Osprey & Centaur. I have not come across pirates flying the 'heavy' versions on my travels though, which prompted my question.

There are Heavy variant M6 flown by Pirates as part of their patrols in vanilla X3AP that you can capture. The thing is that these are stock Commonwealth ship models and not Pirate variants with different stats to normal nor with flash paint jobs. In lore, I presume they were originally captured or stolen by the Pirates at some point and in such demand for use that they were never modified nor repainted.

Thanks Alan. My boarding skills are not too good at the moment. So, seeing as I have plenty of credits to spare, I think I'll just buy the regular from shipyards and RE.
