Show me your small fighters!

[Arsat]

Not so nice than yopsolodes ship, but mine isnt a designship. Mine hunts pirates.

With only 3000 energy you cant fly and fight at the same time.

 

[Incap]

Just a simple fighter. I call it the Icarus.

Update :

Now its a small fighter, drone ( when schema makes a real AI and when AI can use bb missles ) and turret in one.

Best small fighter i have seen here. When u make a better one send me the blueprint :p

The Katana Mk. V is a development of my first ship. It doesn\'t pack that much of a punch, but it excels in a reconnaisance role, and can take a fair bit of damage.

The Chimera is a speedy, if slow to bank fighter, possesing three perfectly synched CREW 500 plasma cannons, and two STC Titan rocket pods. It has a large amount of shielding, and looks nice to boot.



The Fantasy Interceptor is a much smaller craft, less than half the mass of the Chimera, which gives it excellent acceleration and maneuverability. It holds twin CREW 500 plasma cannons, and a 3:1 Thrust mass ratio. It only has 26 mass!

 

[Incap]

A Vaygr Assault Craft and Bomber. They have no shields whatsoever, but are fast and capable of laying down alot of fire. The Assault Craft managed to take out two pirates with very little damage.

I present to you the Dagger Light Fighter: http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn296/Lan915/starmade-screenshot-0001_zps623a018e.png

Mass: 15, Length: 10m, Width: 8m, Height: 7m, Thrust: 24.9, Power: 1193.1 e/sec, Sheilds: 2664 (229 s/sec).

Here is the Shortsword Light Fighter: http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn296/Lan915/starmade-screenshot-0006_zps563b2420.png

[Yatem]

Those things look just like the original! Have you done any other Vaygr ships?

 

[Dogdard]

Here are a few replica F-302s I made from SG-1 (at least as close as I could get them)

Fighter Loadout:

Mass: 41 SIze: 18x8x25 Regen: 3798/sec Thrust: 83 Shields: 7200 Armaments: 2 AMC for 110 dmg/shot. 2 dual missle SD-BB missiles. 170ish for the smaller salvo and 200ish for the larger



Bomber Loadout:

Mass: 44 Size: 18x8x25 Regen: 2344/sec Thrust: 55 Shields: 10k Armaments: 2 db1000 single missle for 200 dmg 2 SD-BB single missle for 200 dmg and 2 SD-KB single missle for 200 dmg. Also has small dock on belly designed for dis-integrator bombs.

 

[refirendum]

Here\'s my fighter.

thinking of making a drone-fleet of them (expensive drones though.)





4 main cannons, plenty of speed, plenty or regen, plenty of surviveability from grazing hits.

 

[Trollerbobman]

aah well, i only have a screenshot of my fighter drones

oh well, here they are with a view of the repair drone and the HammerHead-Class Corvette MK1:

Do note: these are the old models. ^ ^ ^

I\'m liking the idea of small ships. Been playing off and on for the past few months. Can\'t say how functional my ships are but it\'s been fun playing around.

After much experimentation here\'s a ship I feel I can show.

Designation: NX-B00

Mass: 63.9

Length: 15m, Height: 8m, Width: 21m

Power 20,000.0 (9252.3e/Sec)

Thrust: 115.5

TurningSpeed: X-Axis: 2.2, Y-Axis: 4.5, Z-Axis: 2.7

Shields 15719.0 (4036s/Sec)

Weapons: AMC (2x) Damage 192.7 (25% even distribution)**

**For some reason I can\'t get the two AMC banks to match. They stay even up to about 80 damage then from there the stats drift apart ever so slightly. No big deal but also a bit of a nit-pick.

In addition I\'ve built two turrets which can optionally be added.

Felt like making an ultra-light fighter, here\'s what I came up with this morning.

Designation: NX-F00

Stats:

I\'m thinking I\'ll redesign it a bit to get the core in a better place for docking. Don\'t always think of everything.

The Solaris Combine utilizes two light strike craft, pictured here together. The smaller craft, on the left, is one of our mostly harmless* Suppressor drones, at approximately 5 mass. To the right, one of our mighty Fang interceptors, weighing just over 23 mass. Suppressors lack any onboard power generators, instead relying solely on battery power. This makes them mostly useless, and we really only carry them on our ships to flood enemy radar with contacts in a feeble bid to intimidate them. The Fang is a nasty piece of work, though. Just stay away from them. They\'re bad news. Seriously, if you see them just run, there\'s no need to fight them. We won\'t think less of you.

Each of our capital ships carries at least six Fangs and upwards of a dozen Suppressors. The AMCs on these ships are all configured in single-block arrays.


*The Suppressor is, in fact, a powderkeg of not at all harmless, until its battery runs out, typically within ten seconds of launching, at which point the threat-indicator needle does an acrobatic pirhouette and points to \'completely harmless.\'

Nice, ice crystals make everything looks better.

ArbalestSC-5

Functions:

Military- Interplanetary Fighter/Planetary Protector/Scouting Vessel

Private- Type A, Escort Vessel/ Short Journey Exploration Vessel

Industry- None/See Private

Piracy- None: Cargo Bay Unsatisfactory, Self-Destruction function after pilot or key-components are taken out.



Records:

First testing began around 2217 of the former era, as direct response on the sudden increase of Space Piracy, following the IST-boom. Common Pirate Vessels of the day, known as \'Midge\' and \'Isanth\' types, were inferior in most every aspect, with exception of carrying capacity. Such was sacrificed for more engines, weaponry, fuel and first versions of SD shielding. Early on, the prototype was sent out to make an escort run along commonly navigated trade-routes. After three days in function, it had already outperformed and consecutively shot down nine Pirate vessels... In 2221, the first batch of mass-produced Arbalest were flown from SC shipyards to function as the first line against the ever growing amount of Pirates and Otherworldly Threats... Until this day, respectively 2422, by the former era, 72 by the counting of the Tsarsky Dominion, The Eternal Dominus Be Praised, the Arbalest remains a relevant ship, capable of reliably fighting off newer models, including \'Crescent\', \'Minos\' and \'Gundog\' Type.. It is noted however, that Arbalest produced before \"The Arrival\" are more prone to overheating, fuel leaks, misfiring ballistics, and sudden shield defects.



\'After Arrival\' model, Squad-Captain PaintJob.

Specs:

The Arbalest relies mainly on its speed and manoeuvrability. Such is provided by a number of engines, particulary those within the frontal \'Wing\', and the minor Thrusters behind the dual cockpit.

Most commonly, it is fitted purely with AMC long-guns to efficiently puncture shields and shred through hull, like a knife through butter.. However, instances of the wing-mounted guns being switched for missile tubes are not unheard of.



42, wink-wink, nudge-nudge.

Pilot Tips:

Its shields can take a few hits, but staying too long in enemy fire will instantly shred through the minor hull present, and start tarnishing the Arbalest\'s functions. It is advised to use it\'s superior speed, manoeuvrability and recharge rate for hit and run tactics when facing larger ships.

When navigating and firing the long guns, keep an eye on the fuel and heat gauge.. Drastic performance drops may follow, if the guns do not have time to cool down.

The Arbalest can land on any small flat surface, and generally take off without a hitch.

Here\'s our lightweight fighter, which works well as a drone.


And here is our light bomber. Last time I checked, its mas was 98.1. I\'m currently thinking of replacing this model, though.
