[OUTDATED] USSP Admiral Kuznetsov

Description
The USSP Admiral Kuznetsov is a fleet carrier. As such, it is not equipped for direct combat with other capital ships. Its role is to transport and fabricate large amounts of small ships, such as fighters, bombers, and attack craft. The hangar of the Admiral Kuznetsov is capable of carrying up to twelve ships in its docking connectors, and can carry an additional eight on the outside (although it can be easily modified to accept more).

Externally, it can also carry other large ships, or guided missiles, if desired.

The Union decided not to incorporate a large amount of redundancy into the design of the Admiral Kuznetsov due to its indirect combat role, so most of the ship's essential systems are located in the area aft of the hangar bay.

The Admiral Kuznetsov is server- and survival-friendly.

Ah, yes, yes, I get it. Not quite my design, I stole it from Horx ages ago. I was quite the noob when I built this.

sorry, bad joke. Referencing how the current Russian carrier smokes like a coal mine on fire where-ever it goes. lol ('Cause it uses the next best thing to tar as a fuel apparently??) And it also always travels with an entire fleet of support ships on account of the laughable number of breakdowns? In fact, I might actually try and throw together some space tugs to go along with it just to increase my immersion. Sorry, I love those crazy soviets, but fans of sleek over-engineered machines they were not. XD Setting aside the eccentricities of the IRL Russian navy though, this is a pretty neat design.

Smoke generators ?

I don't see any smoke generators in the equipment list, are they just nonfunctional at the moment?

I feel like you should increase the end a bit more, make it a bit less stubby

I think that you need to name your carrier the Kuznetzov. Bit more on the nose of real life.
