RCI Strix Assault fighter-Railguns

RCI----Ranger Combat Industries


Lore: After the attack on the RCI homeworld of Araluen by Morgarath and his fleet, the RCI had almost no fighter production capabilities left, with only a single mobile repair ship active. The only fighters left were outdated Kystrel mk.1 fighters from deep storage, which would have been instantly destroyed did Morgorath attack again. So, the RCI approached the GSI, and requested new fighters. The only ships the nearest GSI outpost had were a few Bifold Imitation strike fighters. The RCI took them, hoping to convert them to combat capable in time for the next attack...

Credits: Many thanks to ExteviousV for allowing me to revamp his Bifold Imitation Strike fighter into an actual strike fighter-go check out the rest of his fleet!; Whiplash 141 for his scripts and the railguns; Rdav for making the missile script.

User Manual:The railguns are large ship, so they pack a hefty kick...be careful firing in tight spaces. Also, I had to remove all but four retro Ions to make room for the arc reactor, so to stop in space you may want to turn and use the rear thrusters. I'll have a designator turret for the missiles on soon, but if you have the Battle Cannons and Turrets mod then each missile has a small turret on it. BCAT will be a dependency, but you don't have to use it if you don't want to.


Note: The Vanilla Variant with large ship rocket luanchers will be up tonight, as well as screenshots for both.
