-lore-

After 9.6 years, the Acolyte MK1 became antiquated due to new tech and better building processes. Also, a lot of flaws keep annoying the pilots. So the MK2 was a test to modernize the original Acolyte and address her design's flaws.
A cheaper fighter with the same capabilities means more money for other projects, and so the Pro-Strike-Craft faction in Altiirean Fleet Command invested to have more money in the long run.

After the success of the MK2, it will be the main line fighter for the fleet. Almost all production of the MK1 has stopped, but they still serve in the fleet

Pilots and hangar crew love the ship so far; it handles much better and takes up less space in the hangars and pads.
But a small group of avid ship enthusiasts still think the Mk1 is the better ship, but they are stuck in the past and unwilling to face change.
