== Development ==
* The Mule was originally teased in [[CitizenCon 2951]] as a potential option for ground vehicle concept, along with two other vehicles, including the vehicle that becomes [[Spartan]].<ref>[https://youtu.be/gC7onjXyex0 CitizenCon2951: Ship Talk] on YouTube</ref>

* The Mule is introduced in [[Star Citizen Alpha 3.17.1|Alpha 3.17.1]] during the [[Invictus Launch Week 2952]] event.{{Cite}}

== Trivia ==
* In the [[PTU]] build of Alpha 3.17.1, a Mule-size cargo box is shown in the [[Defensecon]] show floor. When the timer expires, a bare-chested male NPC is revealed showing off his body.<ref>[https://youtu.be/ALcDwjVFcyQ Drake box in 3.17.1 PTU] on YouTube</ref>
