*'''D81: Post-War Condor''': Equipped with a more efficient slipspace drive and built from excess [[D79-TC Pelican]] frames, the post-war variant has the upper cockpit either stripped out or converted into VIP seating.<ref name="Waypoint"/> | *'''D81: Post-War Condor''': Equipped with a more efficient slipspace drive and built from excess [[D79-TC Pelican]] frames, the post-war variant has the upper cockpit either stripped out or converted into VIP seating.<ref name="Waypoint"/> | ||
*'''D81WP''': The WP (Weapons Package) variant retains the D79 Pelican's [[GAU/53 70mm MBHRC autocannon|autocannon]] and is sold to the [[UNSC]], paramilitary units, and planetary security forces by [[Misriah Armory]].<ref name="Waypoint"/> | *'''D81WP''': The WP (Weapons Package) variant retains the D79 Pelican's [[GAU/53 70mm MBHRC autocannon|autocannon]] and is sold to the [[UNSC]], paramilitary units, and planetary security forces by [[Misriah Armory]].<ref name="Waypoint"/> | ||
*'''G81''': The G81 is a designation for unofficial, slow-moving but powerful Condor craft armed with multiple pulse-laser turrets and a light magnetic accelerator cannon – all of which are capable of independently targeting enemy units. The pulse lasers offer a high rate of fire, making the Condor effective against mass units, while the light MAC provides devastating burst damage for hard target elimination.

*'''U81''': The U81 is an unofficial designation for refit Condors used by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] during reconnaissance and surveillance missions. This variant is outwardly indistinguishable from [[civilian]] starships, but the U81 incorporates an advanced electronic warfare suite, an extensive passive sensor array, and a military-grade slipspace drive. This variant is sometimes classed as a "[[Prowler|subprowler]]" due to its covert mission profile, although it lacks passive [[cloaking]] or sensor [[baffler|baffling]] coatings.<ref name="Waypoint"/> | *'''U81''': The U81 is an unofficial designation for refit Condors used by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] during reconnaissance and surveillance missions.
