D-34 Tigris

Description
Long have I waited for this update, finally cannons :D (also small ships seem tougher now, so I’m double happy).

A destroyer. This design was reserved for this update. Taken experience from the few ships before, as an attempt, this one is built specifically for combat survivability. I wouldn't say this is a good looking ship in comparison with my other builds. But, considering its size and the amount of blocks it uses, it is the most powerful and efficient in combat. It already looks pretty scary if you are facing it from the front XD.

Half heavy armored, I reinforced only the important bits. The front is very thick. The bridge is embedded within the center of the ship, behind everything, and with a second layer of armor.
The sides and top are also pretty well-protected. But I would point out that the bottom is exposed because of the thrusters. Although it only uses hydrogen thrusters, there is quite a lot of fuel to sustain this thing. Quite fast and quite maneuverable. Intended for 0G, but I tested and it can still fly under 1.2G.

Also, I am aware the fuel tank explodes now. Hence, I placed all the big ones behind, that tail structure is basically fuel. Tested with default targeting and it seems that the AI likes to focus on the other parts first, which is good...

The armaments are pretty extreme:
1 Mounted railgun.
4 Mounted artilleries.
3 Artillery turrets.
4 Assault turrets.
4 Gatling turrets.
4 Missile turrets.
Target on default, but I grouped each type for you to change it.

Control are straight forward, not much to explain (Look down for the cruise control).

Here are the scripts I used:
Simple cruise control:

(triple-tap in one direction to toggle it, or use toolbar 9 to toggle it. toolbar 8 is auto max speed)

Artificial Horizon

Display

Ship Integrity

Alright, enjoy! I need to go back and upgrade my other ships now XD.

This design looks to me to be very similar to the FPA ships from the LOGH remake. Very Nice. Any chance on a cruiser size in the future?

Been looking for a good survival MP PvP ship keen to give this a crack thank you and looking forward to further updates /new ships for the new DLC!

Combat tested in live servers, stupidly effective. Even against modded weapons/shields. Easy to outfit with new weapons also.

ah dont worries no haters seen here :), I think I just posted this in a wired time. A lot of bp just after the update, the competition is high i guess.

Love the look. Like the design. Ignore the haters, it's a good build.

@TRAV. i think the ppl are stupid this is a really fun cool looking ship that is very practical. my only complaint would be the front isn't armored enough to compensate for the very vulnerable prone to explode back end that's why i suggested the hammerhead ass maybe a next ship or add those hangers they had in the show to protect the back a bit more. but i dont mean to be requesting a whole bunch of ships for you to build i just really like the ships you build they are fun to mess with in creative which is where i spend most of my time:D

yeah well, it seems not a lot of ppl like though :b, only 3 stars. Do combat test with it and tell me what you think. I tried to make this one practical...
