USSP Korolev

Description
Note- This is the first in a new series of ships inspired by those of The Expanse.

The Korolev is a tried and true design. Differing from other USSP ships in its vertical layout, it features improved acceleration, maneuverability, and weapons firing arcs.

Korolev is built to "punch up" for its size class, and boasts greatly increased performance over its peers. It can accelerate at 39 m/s^2 with its extremely powerful thrusters, and features a superfiring turret layout and strong frontal protection intended to face directly towards enemies.

TL;DR

Korolev is server- and survival- friendly, and completely vanilla. It uses no mods, no subgrids, and no DLC.

Block Count: 2,139
PCU: 17,042
Acceleration: 39 m/s^2
Weight:
1,869,456 kilograms (empty)
Airtight:
Yes (fully airlocked, oxygen vents included)
Planet-capable:
Yes, any (intended vertically)


Armament:
8 Gatling Turrets
6 Artillery Turrets
1 Railgun

Storage/Fabrication:
25 H2/O2 Generators
65 Small Cargo Containers
1 Oxygen Tank
2 Hydrogen Tanks
33 Small Hydrogen Tanks

Energy:
19 Small Reactors
2 Batteries
1 Jump Drive

Communications:
1 Ore Detector
1 Beacon

CREDITS

Korolev uses a few scripts to enhance function. These include Whiplash141's Artificial Horizon, Whiplash141's Airlock, Whiplash141's Turret Radar, and Whiplash141’s Retro Thruster Braking[github.com].

I used [YMC] Type 34 Merchantman as a Belta target.

Would it be possible to commission to update the older ships to the newest update?

Expanse Looks ... Stargate names ... Take my money !

@Slitherin' I wouldn't call it "very sluggish" really. Forward speed is excellent, and the side thrust, while maybe not a lot compared to some, seems sufficient. Also it wouldn't be very server/performance friendly if it used a gravity drive.

I tried the ship. Looks great, gunpower is great, but agility is very sluggish. It is not a battleship after all, so some degree of maneuverability would be nice to have, especially since the latest update, which added cannons, and these are harder to dodge than missiles.

Consider installing a gravity drive on your ship, it can drastically improve your ship's acceleration/decceleration in all 6 axis (or however else you configure it).

epflederer- yeah, I kind of got sucked in a couple months ago but this was actually made before I watched the show which is why the interior is so sparse

Saxmo- You may be overestimating my thought process, it basically consisted of "haha russian rocket ship" lol thanks tho

I guess im not the only one inspired by the expanse. I just started watching it and i love it

I'm a big Space History buff, including Soviet space history. Props on the reflection on Korolev, perhaps a shrot history lesson in the description of the ship would be appropriate. Nice design!

game is updated... maybe its just a bug then

There are no modded blocks in the blueprint. Maybe your game isn't updated to warfare 2? If so, it's probably just a game bug that can be disregarded.

getting a message that it contains blocks not available in my world when trying to load it to a projector
