The Venator Umbra is the second frigate to emerge from Mighty Mage Industries’ secretive Advanced Combat Systems division. Though simply adorned, her rugged hull, gravity shielding, redundant systems and plethora of weapons make the Venator Umbra a formidable foe. Eleven Gatling Turrets provide 360 degrees of protection from enemy strike craft, while her rocket launchers and twin-launched armor-piercing torpedoes strike fear into the hearts of even the largest battleships and stations.

The U-Type torpedoes consume mostly iron and cobalt and take about 8 seconds to build on normal welding speed settings. These unguided torpedoes require no fuel and are impervious to enemy gravity shielding, and each is typically capable of penetrating more than five layers of heavy armor with a direct hit. Additional torpedo types may be added in the future. The build, arming and firing sequences are all automated with timers, making launch as simple as pressing two buttons (see cockpit screenshots).

The Venator Umbra can be flown by a single pilot and requires zero mods, making it ideal for use in multiplayer settings. The ship is also equipped with a Mighty Mage Industries proprietary “Parking Brake” feature, which helps thwart would-be thieves by disabling key flight systems when activated, preventing players from simply hijacking a cockpit and taking off with your ship.

Note: You may need to reload the torpedo blueprints into the torpedo build projector to get them to work properly. SE is weird about merge block ownership and projectors.
