Altana Explorer

This is a modified version of Sabaithal's Altana Dive Fighter modified to be more suitable for planetary exploration while still retaining all 13 guns and combat effectiveness.

This is the T1 ore-only version with no warp drive or constructor, but some decorative insides have been stripped out and rearranged to add more exploration useful stuff.

Additions:
- A Detector (for finding ore)
- A Fridge
- More O2 and an O2 station
- An armor locker
- Lots of cargo crates
- A control panel switch for the shutters and "Nonessentials" (for power savings)

It's a good thing to use on the starter planet to fly to the moon to loot POIs and mine for ore.

Once you get some Cobalt (either on the moon or on an asteroid) you can upgrade to the SRW version by adding:

- A Warp Drive (in the spot marked with the radioactive symbol on top).
- A Warp Fuel tank (I recommend next to the oxygen station).
- A mobile constructor (in the spot marked with the X inside or wherever).

Or retreive all the blocks, throw them into the blueprint factory, add the cobalt and a few extras of the other ingots, and rebuild it as the SRW version (which will take much less time since you supplied mostly blocks).

Cost:

Iron Ingot 678
Copper Ingot 466
Silicon Ingot 334

Build Time: 1h 07m
