This is my first ever upload of a ship I've built!
The Gnat is a single-seat Drone-sized ship primarily built for light combat. Retrofitted for leisure rather than battle, this R version boasts increased engine performance. With a Thrust:Mass ratio of 3.1:1, the Gnat-R made a splash on the recent Intergalactic Space Race circuit.
Tech-Specs:
------------------------------------------
Power Plant: 9-Cell High-Output Reactor (50k, 1121.9/sec; Completely stable even with Overdrive activated)
Shielding: Distributed Anti-debris Protection Region (DAPR) (163, 11/sec)
Propulsion System: 6 Port Main Exhaust with Triple Thrust Vectoring systems on winglets (80 Thrust, 28 blocks)
Auxiliary Systems: After-Burners increase speed by 100% (Overdrive, 100% efficiency, 26 Blocks)
Production Cost: 277499
Optional Paint Jobs: Race Green, Alpha Yellow, Spectral Silver, Deep Blue
------------------------------------------
4-th wall commentary:
This was a really eye-opening build! it's been a while since I've played StarMade (Almost a year!) and it has been an absolute pleasure getting back into the groove of designing, building and refining a ship! This particular ship is not what i wanted going in, but once I realized what i was actually building, well, I think I can say I'm very satisfied with the result.
More ships will be coming soon, depending on the sorts of response i get from this first upload. Farewell for now dear readers!
