A-10 Thunderbolt Attack Drone
scale-size (1:1) drone modeled after the real-life attack aircraft.
Similar to the original, 17m x 4m x 16m
generates a little over 400 e/s.
uses about 330 e/s from thrust
no shields
4c /4c autocannon uses about 750 e/s (75 e/shot)
Docker docks at the rear of the tail.
Mass: 14.6
T/M ratio: 1.678
I got mildly bored with a much larger StarMade project, and this kept entering my mind. I pretty much built it in my head, so logging in was the longest part of building this. Second was placing enough reactor blocks to allow it to thrust without running out of "fuel".
This craft will rapidly run out of ammunition/fuel after firing for an extended period of time. It only has enough power generation for thrust, not for the autocannon.
