UNSC Orbital Defense Platform (Vanilla, Mass Driver Cannon, Interchangeable Rounds)

The Orbital Defense platform is a large station classification in the UNSC Navy. It is solely designed for planetary defense, particularly over planets of great strategic importance.

History
No matter how inferior humans may look to the Covenant, there is one set of human structures that the Covenant will think twice about before approaching blindly. Or rather, they are afraid of the cruiser-sized weapon adorning these battle stations. The ODP is built around the Mk. V "Super MAC" cannon, an immensely powerful, accurate and long ranged weapon, The ODP can also reload, aim and fire again in seconds. However, the ODP is practically immobile, expensive, and should be protected at all costs.

Armament
1 Enhanced Mergeball Cannon - 4 Gatling Turrets - 1 Interior Defense Turret

Equipment
Storage, assembler, long range optics, Frigate docks

Tactics
The Orbital Defense Platform is the UNSC's most powerful defensive asset. Assign these to groups above a planet and guard them with your fleet, taking care of small craft while the Mk. V destroys the bigger ships. It can also function as a command center for a fleet.

Mergeball Cannon: RC block is currently broke. Get into the Flight seat built onto the wall. Pressing "1" will load and fire the cannon, as it is operated on timers. SPEED MOD RECOMMENDED! You can also adjust gyro sensitivity hitting "3" and "4", hit "6" to activate an aim assist reticule, and press "8" to switch between HE and AP

Frigate Docks: Hit ">" to switch to the docking controls once the frigate is ready to dock. Extend the pistons and lock the landing gears.

This station is 1:10 scale. It is 100% light armor construction and has only a couple thrusters. Keep it away from gravity of any kind.
