The Anubis is best known as the fighter used by The Order. The Anubis, and the Order weapons made for it, are cheaply available on Order bases. The ship itself appears to be descended from the Defender heavy fighter, continuing its basic layout and Art Deco design style but with upgraded weaponry and shielding abilities. One of its best features is a forward firing turret, which functions effectively as a seventh weapon.
The Anubis is not available in multiplayer game without a mod, since no Order bases exist anywhere.

Original Entry
Built from the ground up by Orillion's Corps of Engineers, "The Anubis" is a one-of-a-kind class of ship. It has been completely outfitted for optimal performance in combat, with the best possible balance of power, armor and weapon extensibility. It is used by The Order to infiltrate, secure and, if need be, quickly dominate in hostile situations. Though it is not an easy ship to fly, in the hands of a skilled pilot, the Anubis is unbeatable.
Comments
7 weapon mounts, a torpedo launcher and the fact that it almost cost nothing means that this ship would become the prime choice for anyone who decides to join The Order. It is arguably the best ships you can ever land your hands on during the single player campaign, due to the fact that the Anubis can mount seven Class 6 Weapons, its superior armor, cargo and repair capabilities.
The ship does not maneuver well, forcing the pilot to rely on raw firepower to take down the opposition before he/she suffers the same.
It is not entirely clear if the Anubis is classified as a heavy or a very heavy fighter. In-game text strings call it both and it is more likely a very heavy but its ship class parameter value is a heavy fighter. Discussions have been made and referring to its agility it is considered a heavy fighter by both the modding community and the players' majority.
