Description
Note: This ship is a modification of Senanthes's Baikal-class Frigate https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2379328128 which itself is based on ExoticMango17's U.N. Rail Gun Frigate https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1949070529&searchtext=UN+Frigate
This ship also features a modification of pro100tv's XU-2 mining drone https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2762422844

DLC: Yes
Mods: Yes, 9 (8 if you don't care about removing armor edges)
Subgrids: none
Planetary capability: Horizontally up to 1.0G, vertically beyond 1.1G

Specifications:
Length: 130 meters (52 blocks)
Width: 27.5 meters (11 blocks)
Height: 32.5 meters (13 blocks)
Mass (considering loaded torpedoes, PDC rounds, and railgun shells): 4,673,373 kg
Block count: 3533 (it will show 7066 or something like that because of a hologram of the ship in the CIC)
PCU: 31037

Armament:
8x M-1 torpedo batteries divided into 2 salvo sets
4x Northwind 75mm railgun turrets
14x 40mm MCRN Nariman Dynamics PDCs
There is an Interior Turret in the hangar. It is not used for fighting other ships.

Accommodations:
Crew quarters for up to 7 (COs cabin above CIC, crew quarters just above engineering)
Crew mess/recreation center one deck below main airlocks
Medical bay one deck below CIC

Survival readiness: Katana is fully-ready for survival worlds. She even comes fully loaded with 80 M-1 torpedoes, 4000 railgun rounds, and a near-bottomless supply of PDC rounds (pretty sure I tried loading 28000 rounds and ended up loading 28000 BOXES of ammunition) if you spawn her in then convert your world to survival.

Final notes:
In the process of rebuilding this ship's interior, I removed some of the programmable blocks in what is now the rec room so I don't recommend using the Katana on worlds with scripts active. I honestly don't know what will happen.

Future plans:
I'm planning on expanding the class (Kindjal-class destroyers). These ships will mostly be repaints of Katana, but I'm considering rearmament of some of the ships with things like countermeasure flares (when these start functioning properly), different torpedoes, alternative PDCs, and so on. But the names of the ships will be as follows:

UCS Kindjal (lead ship, visible in preview screenshots): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2734762165
UCS Kodachi (can be seen in last image): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2727185267
UCS Glaive
UCS Gladius
UCS Sabre
UCS Katana
UCS Talwar
UCS Cutlass

Links to each will be added next to their names as they are published.
