I made a thread in the ideas discussion on the need for a hauler that could traverse frigate sized wormholes with a 5,000 m3 hold only to be shouted down by all and sundry. A year later the Porpoise is coming and I'm feeling pretty vindicated.
That aside, this is a great addition for W-Space in particular. It adds a degree of utility that didn't previously exist and at such an affordable price I hope to see plenty of them providing on grid boosts for their mining fleets.

It can fit through a frigate sized wormhole ffs. 50K is extremely generous.

On the test server at the moment the Porpoise is appearing with 2 mids and 4 lows, I'm guessing that's just an error that will be corrected before testing is permitted?

That's what Command Destroyers are for.
It's not like over sized ships fitting through wormholes too small for their class doesn't have precedent. The Nestor is the only Battleship that can enter a C1 and Interdictors have been squeezing through Frigate sized wormhole since they spawned. No point getting bogged down in the details.
As it stands, it makes for a useful booster/hauler to navigate those small apertures and is sorely needed in W-Space in particular.

You must know I meant Heavy Interdictors, surely?
There's nothing clever about it, you just fit a single warp disruption field generator.
