Description
POLARIS SPACE INDUSTRIES PHM-5 "RHINO II" hover miner

'Rhino II' is bigger and meaner version of the original 'Rhino'. It has updated laser drills, closed cockpit and vast amounts of thrust at it's disposal. It comes with a price though - it's not lightweight vessel and it's not built to be cheap, it's built to be good.

Great thrust capabilities and handling means Rhino II can devour deposits at ease - and practically climb up vertical walls to get out.

Like with all hover miners - great deal of attention has to be paid to the mining technique. 'Rhino II' isn't much bigger than it's predecessor - but always remember to mine around you too, don't dig yourself in a narrow hole.

Specifications:

Type: Hover Vessel
Size class: 1
Mass: 29,6t
Size (WxDxH): 5.5x6,5x3m
Features: 6x Drills, 1x Mining storage box, 1x Oxygen station, 2x Cargo Box, 1x Fridge

@Sacreae It is. It's using a normal enclosed cockpit.

Thanks all for comments!

is it enclosed and sealed?

I appreciate the arch you used for the upper drill. Overall it's a pretty design.

Ooh! Nice! Very nice! This might be the first mining vessel I retrieve from the workshop.... and it is also inspiring me to make another, or maybe re-do Mr. Drilly(because that name is hystericaly atrocious.) Still. Wonderfully done. Thumbs up for sure. :steamhappy:
