Type 72 Frigate

The Type - 72 Frigate,

With this build I wanted to build a ship in the shape of a giant gun, inspired by the Marines space ship in the classic Aliens. It's a small to mid sized frigate with Long jump Capability, 3 Fighters, Landing Gear & Ramp, Various Alert Alarms, Damage Report functions and a lot weapons.

Ship's Mass,3,274,638kg

52 x Gyros
12 x Gatling Turrets
11 x Missile Turrets
6 x Rocket Pods
151 x Hydrogen Thrusters : Ready for atmospheric flight Max lift 4,000,000kg
5 x Jump Drives [Jump Distance 1252km]
2 x Large Reactors
1 x Med Bay
1 x Large Storage container
2 x Flight Seat (main Flight Seat on the right)
6 x Gunner's seats

Coms &Signals : Beacon, Antenna, Ore Detector

Landing Gear : Retractable x 3 : set on timer block
Retractable Ramp, : Ground access for moving troops quickly on/off
Fighter Bay with quick release fighters x 3, Timer block time up for ATHD alarms & lights

Ship Wide Alerts,
Green, White inner ship Lights , Running lights white,
Yellow, Yellow Inner Ship Lights, Running lights white,
Red Alert, Front Window Blast Door, Red Inner Ship Lights, Running lights Red,

Nav Lights, Port and Starboard flashing lights,
Running Lights, White, White Flashing, Red & Off

Ship Status Reports :

Various LCD screens for Ship details,
Speed, location, power output, jumpdrive, rotor status, Damaged blocks
(This uses Automatic LCD 2 - no mod needed) can be switched of from flight seat or middle button panel

LCD screens for Ships Layout / Floor plan & visual Damage report
(This uses the Floor Plan Script no mod needed - can be switched of from flight seat or middle button panel)
This can be server intensive online / and locally - so switch it off if you have problems or you're not using it, but it does look cool.

Flying Notes:

When firing the rocket pods, turn off the front land thrusts group.
When operating the landing gear or ramp remember to switch off the Rotor safety lock group.
And again, switch off scripts to improve performance

Build Notes :

I really wanted a mass driver in the front like a torpedo room I did try out many different types, but keep having issues with firing when moving and it ripping the front of my ship off, also the size is just too big with big blocks, so i built a few small block mass drivers with a small rotor head, but again guidance issues when moving, + it moves the ship if you don't switch of the ship's internal grav, Also wanted to add a mine deployment system at the back, next time build :)

Enjoy all, and Thanks for taking a look.
