Description
Final Update to the Mutated Virus!!! Was not able to fully finish the Virus before I moved and had no idea when I would be getting to finishing it so had upload it not fully complete till now!! Thank you for all the subs for my last model of the Mutated Virus and hope you enjoy the final design! I have modified the top of the crane to have more of a point to be able to dock up to something a bit easier and now holds 3 kerbal's as well in the crane section.

I've added reverse thrust engine's to the Crane and Virus to help slow you down while approaching a ship or stations so your not having to spin the ship around a bunch to slow down also help's when docking the Virus back up to the Crane section. I've setup action groups for everything that you will need after getting to orbit and once the Virus has landed on the surface.

The Crane is a bit wobbly so what I have down is use the RCS to help move the ship into the maneuver node but shut the RCS off when on alignment with the maneuver node and then activate the Nuke engines slowly and should be not much wobble at all because the electric stabilizers will keep you on track of the maneuver node.

The Crane
3 Crew Slots Mk1-3 Command Pod
4 Nuke engines

The Virus
2 Crew Slots in the Mk2 Lander Can
3 Mining Drills for fast mining
2 1500 Ore Storage

Yea, you´re right, refuelers are really nice.

Thank you! I remember seeing this design in a science book when I was in middle school. I really like refueler's most of the ships and vehicle's I design come with refueler's just because everything runs on fuel!

This is a really excellent design idea because there aren´t many mining ships/refuelers that actually look interesting. But this one does!
