ASM Nevada class corvette

[FULLY VANILLA]
The ASM Nevada class corvette is between the smallest void vessels of the ASM navy. Designed to serve as a cheap and fast patrol ship, the Nevada is capable of dealing with most pirate encounters with ease. Nevada corvettes are usually asigned in groups for larger operations, and are commonly seen deployed as escorts of larger ships.

Its small size and low mass allow the nevada excellent acceleration, to a degree that it was deemed unnecesary to equip it with any sort of gravity drive.

The corvette shines in dissabling and capture missions, destroying external systems like turrets and thrusters easily with its array of gatlings and then attaching to the target via a side landing gear. For this purpose the Nevada is suited with whiplash´s speed matcher, allowing for easier attachement. It can also serve as an excellent interceptor, both against fighters and long range pmw (torpedoes, guided missiles, etc). Its armor is however light, and as all ASM vessels its focused on the prow around a decoy.

-9m/s^2 forwards acceleration.
-Cargo space (6 small containers).
-1 Jump Drive (2000km)

Weapons and defenses:
-6 Gatling Turrets
-2 Gatling array turrets (4 gatling guns each)

Systems:
-1 assembler, 2 O2/H2 generators , 1hydrogen fuel tank, 2 ARC furnaces.
-Parachutes for emergency landings.
-Top external conveyor, lateral landing gear


Notes: The nevada is a purely space only ship. It can fly using its ion thrusters on moons (0.25g-no atmosphere). Hydrogen thrusters are to be used only in battle or other situations that require high acceleration.

To use the speed matcher simply point towards the target using the front camera and press 7 in the toolbar. That will match the speed. Press 7 again to stop. Matching speed means that the ship will accelerate to that speed and the dampeners will slow it down to said speed instead of 0m/s.

Please do tell me if something doesnt work.
