Hiigaran Sensor Distortion Probe- HomeWorld 2

Introduction:

The Hiigaran Sensor Distortion Probe- a compact electronic warfare device designed to confuse and jam enemy sensors.

This Space Engineers recreation is built from small-grid blocks and features a few neat tricks. Firstly, it has foldable arms just like the real thing- they don't do anything useful but they do look cool, so there's that. Secondly, the probe is fitted with 10 antennas that can broadcast simultaneously at the press of a button in order to spoof enemies into thinking there is an entire fleet of ships near-by ( antennas are named after various ships in the Hiigaran fleet ). Ideal for distracting hostile factions by luring them away from their position, or scaring them into abandoning an attack etc etc.

I did consider having the antennas powered by small batteries and detaching from the main probe, but Clang wasn't too keen on that idea.

Specs:

40 Blocks long
2030 Blocks
71,583KG

Features:

Access hatch made from pistons for pilot entry
Remote control block for alternative piloting control
3 Deployable arms
10 Antennas for spoofing signals
Fully Survival ready with o2, cargo, reactors, batteries and cockpit etc.

Uses one mod- Conveyor Hinges by Digi: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=385778606

*In theory I could have built this without the hinges but after 3 or 4 aneurysms I'd had enough and opted for the slightly easier method of making deployable arms.

Summary:

I lied, I just needed a break from the HomeWorld ships for a little while- now I'm back in full force and will be filling in ALL of the gaps I left in the Hiigaran and Progenitor fleets.
Stay tuned, I'm just getting started...
