Deimos-HT Refit Refined

Description
New Variant: Deimos CX-MK2
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2850638381

This is a modernized version of jrandall's old Deimos HT design (See link be below)
https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1585773409&searchtext=deimos

T4 CPU
Ammo 10375
Storage 16375

Armaments (All Retractable)
> Forward Plasma Turrets x4
> Broadside MG Turrets x4 & Forward MG Turrets x2 (6 total)
> Top Mounted Missile Turrets x4
> Artillery Turret x1

Protection
> Combat steel hull
> Shield system
> Strafing mobility
> Limited lagshot from original design

Design is slightly sleeker on the sides than the original. Two turret mount points have been sacrificed to enable this. With the introduction of the CPU system, thrusters have been buffed to compensate. A lot of the thrusters have been removed and/or reoriented. Removed some RCS but left most of them in to ensure best possible mobility. Turning rate is not as good as it used to be, but it's a Main Battle Tank. Top speed and strafing speed is good for a heavy vehicle.

Note: If you're looking for CPU space to work with, consider replacing the MG Turrets with Missile Turrets. MG Turrets from some reason, take more CPU than missiles.

This does not come cheap

Does this fit through a hanger door?

@Cik Probably not, most of it is probably redundant. TBH I don't have a good feel for the optimal amount RCS units yet.

Nice build; I'm looking at this and asking myself if it needs 54 RCS'

@jrandall Thanks for the compliments.

@Rocket_Surgeon, I got it added now. Thanks again!

Thank you, I would be honored. I saw a video about the Raytheon modernization of the old US M60 Patton tanks and that's what inspired me.

Very cool! Awesome work! If you would like, I can add it as a modded version to the Deimos-HT post. And thanks again!
