Description
[not updated for alpha 10, may prove impossible or impractical to try to get this within CPU limits - also it does not have a shield gen]

Level 10 Combat SV, warp drive, seating for 3
Built on 'Intrepid SS7'.

4 Rocket launchers
4 Gatling guns
Full hardened steel
ramp covers on weapons

Same cockpit as Intrepid - 5 cargobox, 1 ammobox, 2 fridge, seating for 3. Armor locker & o2 fill station, ventilator. 2 Constructors.
Drone launch shutter roof. (stand directly behind cockpit and face forward)
Levers for the weapon covers, spotlights, roof shutter, and parking brake, 2 LCDs label levers.
Parking brake shuts off all the thrusters/rcs.
Sensor operated doors/ramps.

Overall it's the same general shape as intrepid, a bit longer and wider, with more armoring and adapted to fit thruster jet 1x3x1 (which is apparently now level 10).
44 Thrusters, placed to give higher up/down left/right thrust - 53m/s to sides and up/down, 40m/s forward backward. Should have no trouble dodging Ion Cannons and laser turrets, potentially rocket turrets.

Level 10

Materials:
Iron - 1208
Cobalt - 584
Silicon - 463
Sathium - 406
Neodymium - 40 (for the rocket launchers)
Plastic raw - 4

1hr 29m cook time


Last picture above shows an alternate color (with replace-all grey on the yellow - most of the yellow is the 'camo' texture), and the caution stripes removed.



Tried to come up with a more original name, but this just seems to fit it quite well. Styling and paint is kind of a mix of 'Stilleto-RHV' and 'Intermission', on the Intrepid ship frame.
STI on the rear has no special meaning, feel free to erase or change.

Originally was going to have 8 rocket launchers - 4 homing type built into the reverse thruster pod things on the back, but with those placed there it made it look like it had really big ears. Generally 4 rockets is plenty though - one well aimed volley should take out alien turrets.
One tip for aiming with an interior-seat ship like this is to set FOV to max and use first person view (particularly helpful when shooting small ground critters).

Very nice ship. I like the agility, the cabin desing, but I do not agree with the textures inside.I find it clever the use of sensor for the doors and ramps that are positioned to open them only when needed, when the player is outside and wants to get inside. Thumbs up from me and thank you for shering her.

like the design but do you have a design with a single seat only all the rest looks just perfect.
