LD-2 Idoru Dropship

NO MODS REQUIRED! This ship does not use any subgrids (hinges/rotors/pistons) and runs only two completely optional scripts.

Coyote Orbital continues to move towards a future with more planetary engagements, especially now as tensions rise server-wide over the valuable planetary resource iridium. This ship is another component of our planetary response, intended to scout planets and coordinate rapid fighter and ground responses (in survival MP on the SkunkWorks servers, as always).

While several DLCs are used on this blueprint, the DLC is not structural (doors, 1 lcd, rotating lights, barred windows). SotF is marked as required since the doors are likely an annoying part to replace.

pls liek nad subscrioob if yuo liek. i luv 2 know wat u thimk of my shipes

-Mass: 245,440 kg empty
-PCU: 17,517
-Blocks: 2,778 total
-Acceleration: Varies depending on atmosphere. For hydrogen: 0-100 m/s in approx. 9 seconds forwards, 14 seconds backwards, all other directions significantly slower.
-Scripts: Fancy Flight Info by Blargmode. This script is optional; due to its constant, large updates (or something, I'm not a geek) it is not recommended for multiplayer servers. It does however look VERY cool. Also Whip's Weapon Salvo Script; this is not required either, but again...fun and cool.

This fighter was created for Coyote Orbital (often referred to simply as COY) as a simple combatant with a focus on fights ranging from the surface of a planet, but able to launch from and operate in high altitude gravity wells. Hydrogen provides the majority of total acceleration, and while not required to fly on planets or in space it is at a significant disadvantage without hydrogen thrust. Fuel drains fairly quickly; the Idoru is best used on missions with long portions spent cruising with atmospheric upwards thrust, like scouting or brief assaults.

Styling was heavily influenced by elements of Taidyr's works (as usual lol) and the architectural style of structural functionalism; leaving some parts exposed helped keep the ship's profile smaller while not looking terrible...I hope. This increased vulnerability is compensated for by conveyor and thruster redundancies, with multiple conveyor lines running the length of the fighter and most thrusters having independent connections to the network.

The song in the name of this one is Idoru on Grimes' (banger) album Miss Anthropocene.
