Battlestar Galactica Raptor (Alpha 10)

Description
This is the updated version of my Battlestar Galactica-inspired Raptor. The Alpha 7 version of the Raptor was my most popular workshop creation with over 650 subscribers, so here it is for Alpha 10! It is a very capable SV!

Features:
-Excellent armor and mobility
-SV warp drive
-Shields (new for Alpha 10!)
-Armored cockpit (new for Alpha 10!)
-Pressurized passenger compartment with 2x passenger seats
-Wireless connectivity for logistics systems (press F4 up to 100 meters away to access ship inventory)
-Massively increased cargo volume! 3500 for main storage and 1000 volume for ammo storage
-3x Fridges
-2x Mobile Constructors
-Armor locker
-POI detector
-All frame elements are hardened steel
-Spotlights, running lights, and landing lights controllable with signals
-Motion activated doors and lights

This blueprint unlocks at level 12. It comes with 2x gatling guns and 2x rocket launchers to keep things simple, but it can be easily outfitted with nearly any weapon (just remove the existing weapons and use the hardpoints!)

This blueprint is a little more expensive than the Alpha 7 variant due to the added features (shields, armored cockpit, etc). If there is demand for a "cheap" version of this blueprint then let me know and I'll be happy to make it!

The passenger cabin has two mobile constructors, colored red and orange. Fridges are green. The oxygen dispenser is light blue. Main cargo storage is dark blue, and ammo storage is dark green. The armor locker is tan. You can enter the cockpit from the cabin through a one-block cutout forward.

Please rate and comment on my design. I love to hear your feedback!

The Alpha 7 version is still available here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1516693714

I updated the design again because thruster values changed significantly from Alpha 7 to Alpha 10. I wanted to preserve the mobility as best I could, so I added extra lateral and vertical thrusters. The "dome" was also lowered, and the forward landing gear survivability was increased.

I haven't been able to play with Alpha 10 as much as I'd like, so let me know what changes need to be made! The game devs seem to have removed pylons for the wings. Once they are returned I will update the design.

The A7 version is my workhorse and I thank you very much for this updated version.

Cool, going to build it and do a test run, see how it stacks up to the older one.
