Description
An improved version of the Golden Hornet ship for Ogonite sectors - a more elongated ship and more tenacious.
The only difference between this ship and the Sun Hornet is its black and white coloring.

High-tech warship with excellent maneuverability and high shield strength. Perfect for mid-game, without long turns and tedious braking. It has high maneuverability for its level. The ship is perfectly arranged: all heavy blocks are located near the center of mass, while light blocks are located at the edges so as not to reduce maneuverability. All blocks whose material does not affect efficiency (engines, maneuvering engines, cargo compartments, etc.) are made of trinium so as not to reduce the maneuverability and speed of the ship. The ship has a unique block layout, it completely lacks:
- GENERATORS
The generators have been replaced with ultra-thin solar panels that do not use the ship's processor power, allowing for larger shields while maintaining 12 slots.
Hull blocks were not used, because with almost the same mass they have 3 times less strength than armor.


All ship systems are placed using a secret quantum technology that increases the usable space inside the ship by 6 times. Therefore, the ship has small dimensions compared to other 12-slot ships. Therefore, you get hit less often and moving around asteroid fields is much easier, as well as docking with stations.

Main characteristics:
Acceleration: 101m/s
Braking: 204 m/s
Maneuverability: 0.91/0.88/3.11
This allows you to quickly get out alive from any dangerous situation.

The amount of energy produced exceeds the required amount of energy by 3 times, which gives a large supply of energy during acceleration. There are enough hangars to accommodate 10 squadrons of small fighters.
As the size of the ship decreases, its maneuverability becomes even higher, so this blueprint can be used in all technology sectors, starting with Naonite, where a shield is important. The only drawback of the ship: it does not have production units and academies. It is better to create them at stations. There are not many cargo compartments either, this is not a cargo ship. And academies are not needed in version 2.0 of the game.

It is recommended to install the mod "Carbon Armor Textures":
With it, any ship reinforced with armor blocks looks better.

Thank you. I can't log into the game yet. Try selecting several hangars and using the "merge blocks" tool.

i've been using the gold hornet since i got to the stage where i can do savisi. it has a great design and is a very powerful ship. but there is a problem. a very big problem. the drones!!! they don't fit through the hangar doors and you have to wait for them to come back in to warp. i have a request for you. can you present it as a new design or update it, can you arrange the hangar doors of the ship in one big piece with a wide mouth instead of scattered. i tried to do it but it was absurd like drawing a mustache on mona lisa. a work is best shaped in the hands of its creator. thank you.

Your Ships are incredible. Please fit a transporter-block someday.

By far the best 10-14slot ship on the workshop. Hell it's even better than nearly all 15slot ones

@Altaric this is not a bug, it's stated in the description lol

Bug report: Most internals seems to be duplicated 8 times with slight displacement.
