Blitz Class Fighter MK.I (H)

Description
"The upgrade was very successful."
----Solo.

Since the first model was not capable to launch a effiective assault on NPC large ships, I spent a whole afternoon working on this first upgrade and the result was quite satisfactory ^_^.

Details:
1) 2 more guns in the front.
2)A extended cockpit-front armor which its size is now bit enough to cover the front area of the cockpit.
3) A camera was added in front of the cockpit-front armor to provide better visual in the front.
4)Thicker armor at the both wings providing more cover for the vulnerable rocket launchers and the Thrusters.
5) additional thrusters was added to match its new weight and size (Now the ship weights almost 20 more tons than the normal "Blitz").

With all these new stuffs put in place, an assault on NPC large ship had become praticable, and I had snatch some of my first few trophices!

But yes, some of its weaknesses were still left unsloved:
1)it`s conveyer system was still left exposed outside of the ship`s belly. I`m considering to make that place into a bomb bay, a ram stem or a emepty area for modules ( some multipurpose modules like extended weapons, container, or even a set of decoy. connect by connector of course.).
2)Yep, the armor was upgraded but it still cant survive more than 1 min in a Gatlin barrage or 3 missiles` direct hit up front (if your luck pays off lol).
3)The gatlin guns are not well protected and they are quite close to each other, these make the ship easy to lose its combat capabilities.

Anyway, as usual, I`ll try to fix those problems. All adivse was welcome so please leave a comment!

PS: Those pics I put on, were all the ships captured with this new fighter, the chance of capturing a Mining Hauler is 1/10 for me. The goal is to make the docking process nice and easy so stay tuned folks!



OK...update 4/8, The large ship(I define it as a gunship) in pic 5 is the ship I`m working on lately, and god.... it EATS my resources! I just started to regret of building it in survival mod....hopefully I`ll shape it as I assumed in the beginning XD. Might be ready and published in the end of this week so plz stay tuned folks!
