I've been slogging through the military ranks recently and realized (to my surprise) that the frames seem to be given a) in order of appearance and b) one at a time.
To cut a long story short: have there been changes in the rank structure? There's 12 frames now, but back in Legends there were only 10 Ranks (and let me add that reaching Admiral/Fleet Admiral was a royal pain in the unmentionables!)?
Or, to sum it up...: I want a Shrike. Badly (personal reasons here). Badly enough to commit genocide on the Vonari, one Interceptor at a time. Could anybody tell me at what Rank it becomes available?

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

The rank structure is the same as legends and requires the same number of contracts but the frames unlocked at different ranks have changed. Each rank up to Lieutenant Commander unlocks the next frame on the list. At Commander rank you get access to all the remaining ones.
In legends I only got up to Lieutenant and that was enough to unlock the Evoch-c, so I am not sure if all the remaining frames unlock at Commander rank in Legends. In Mercenary because of the extra frames the Evoch-c is unlocked at Lieutenant Commander rather than Lieutenant . At Commander rank all the remaining frames including the Evoch-e are unlocked, which is nice because I wouldn't have bothered raising my rank to get the ones beyond Evoch-e otherwise.

Hi Maarschalk, good to be here and out there.
AFAIK which frames are unlocked at which ranks does not appear in the manual for Mercenary or Legends, or the Legends strategy guide. The contract requirements for different ranks appear in the Legends strategy guide and although those haven't changed there is no equivalent document for Mercenary yet.
Eclipse I assume you are talking about Legends? Because I am a Commander in Mercenary and I have access to all frames.

*Whew*
I was worried for a short moment that I would have to make "Grand Admiral of the Fleet" or something. Now excuse me, those Vonari won't kill themselves...
