...and it clocks in at 115C. clicky

Unfortunately the Nemesis isn't on this list, unless I missed it.

Well, that's vague. Doesn't even bother to state which version of the Ark it is.

There is absolutely no reason to assume it is anything else other than the Ark from the original cartoon series.

Fun little chart, thanks for sharing it! Slow 'ol Ark, would get burned by a TIE Fighter in a drag race.

Why not the Marvel version? After all, that one was actually called "the Ark" while the cartoon one was nameless for all its existence.

Really?

"There is absolutely no reason to assume it is anything else other than the Ark from the original cartoon series"

how about the very simple fact that the Autobot ship from the original cartoon series was NEVER NAMED THE ARK or given any name what so ever in the body of the cartoon.

Guys...honestly...it's a chart. Someone made it and I think it's pretty good, even if there are a few goofs. If you can do better, be my guest.

This is the internet, EVERYONE can do better, they just choose not to prove they can.

You're right. I forgot the number one Net law.

While I agree that it shouldn't be automatically assumed it was the cartoon version, due to it not actually being referred to as "The Ark," in the same vain I also have an objection to it being the Marvel version, as the Marvel Ark looked different than what is depicted. It wasn't even yellow.

I also gotta wonder how one could even measure the speed of any version of the Ark at all since pretty much each one existed to go on a doomed expedition that would either result in its crashing on/near Earth (most versions) or being never heard from again (IDW's Ark-1, the non-DOTM Movieverse Ark, the Aligned Ark).

And very rarely has any version been relaunched into space for additional voyages, with those that have not really being shown to display their speed so much as just floating in space during moments of inactivity.

I suspected that this person might have gotten these stats from some source like the 2004 Transformers: The Ultimate Guide book or the Dreamwave More Than Meets The Eye profile books, but neither source gives the ship's speed in their sections for the Ark, so I'm at a loss for how they got this statistic.

Isn't it ironic that a vessel named after the supposed savior of all life on Earth is one that can't even successfully complete its first flight? (It completed its mission of clearing the asteroids in the Marvel comics, but never landed on Cybertron again until much, much later, and only after Grimlock used it to punch Unicron in the mouth.)

Perhaps...they made it up? These things do happen on the internet once in a blue moon.
