[WDM] Cyclone Fighter Bomber

Description




Developed to fulfill the role gap of bomber within SBF Navy fleets, the highly lethal Cyclone Class Fighter Bomber is not to be trifled with. Armed to the teeth, the Cyclone Class features six sequenced rocket launchers, four fixed gatling guns, and two automated gatling turrets for defense against hostile strike craft. Such great firepower means the the Cyclone Class, which first saw action in 2309, can dish out devastation to squadrons of enemy strike craft and warships. However, this does not come without compromise, as very little braking thrust could be incorporated into the nose of the ship as all of the space was being used for rocket launchers. Regardless, the Cyclone Class still features a much higher overall flight performance than the previous first generation strike craft, of which the most significant flaw was the lack of lunar flight capability. Perhaps one of the most intriguing features of the Cyclone Class, however, is that in the future, these fighter bombers may be able to use their merge block not just for ease of mass production, but also to deploy small unguided bombs or decoy pods during combat.

I really like the design of this fighter! May I have your permission to use a modified version of this prefab for use in an NPC mod (with MES and RAI) for the Guardians Vanilla dedicated server?

They are a bit bulky for the space.
