USSP Oniks

IMPORTANT NOTE- For least risk of VLS tube blockage, fire missiles at constant velocity whilst not maneuevering or a standstill.
IMPORTANT NOTE 2- For proper operation of missiles, check out the toolbar setup below.

The Oniks class of missile cutters were developed after a need arose for a low-cost, highly mobile platform for the 4M33 Agat supermaneuverable anti-spacecraft missile. The Oniks carries 12 of these missiles in automatically reloading VLS cells inside the hull.

Combined with its advanced sensor suite, Oniks can detect and automatically engage targets from up to 5 kilometers away without fear of retaliation, overwhelming enemy point defense systems through sheer volume of fire. While this design is not intended for taking a beating or close combat against other capital ships, its maneuverability and defensive armament can still give it a fighting chance.

The missile boasts a maximum acceleration of 4.5 G, granting a hit probability of over 0.9 on almost all potential maneuvering targets, including incoming enemy missiles and small fighters.

Oniks is server- and survival-friendly and completely vanilla. Subgrids are used for the missiles and point defense turrets, although it is designed to be as straightforward as possible to build in survival with these. You will need programmable blocks enabled in order for the ship to work to its full potential.

Big thanks to Whip for putting up with my nonsense long enough for me to get everything working properly (I hope)!
