Perses CV3 Evolution Mk1 - Reforged 1.9

CV level 25 Carrier and Base for RE 1.9 (1.8 works too)

Updated for RE 1.9. I also updated the thruster layout, now allowing 6 drives pointing down, so this ship can low land on heavy gravity planets if wanted. Also changed the hull from combat steel to hardened, saving 5+ tons. This is a base ship now, not a pure battle ship. There also some CPU left to customize this ship.

This is my Evolution variant of the the Perses Carrier-CV3 from jrandall:

This variant is mainly now a movable CV base with a flat deck allowing to dock a big CV and 2 special docking anchors for 2 Helios Module CVs.

I added 4 more 320k storage bays for now 12x320k storage. I tweaked the drives, cpu and parts to run as a non quantum ship for RE, without sacrificing to much.

But be aware - this is now a base carrier, not a ship for battles. It comes with 4 drive engines for max speed - its role is to be able to eat some shots, run away in that time and be able to kill fighters and all which is faster as the Perses. It also comes with 4 drive engines bottom, so its capable of lifting some.

The flat deck and the 4 more storage bays triggered some changes, i tried to make all in the same style as jrandall designed it. To stay in his design was one goal, this is a variant, not a new ship.

The 2 Helios anchors are tricky to use and will not work for every module without change. You need to have a flat bottom and no bottom landing gear. For example, this module and similar styles will work fine:

I removed some of the "enviromental" parts. The lobby is now the bow storage for example. This is like a militarized version now.

This ship comes with enough solar panels to be energy neutral even with shields and be offline.

IF you have quantums to spend, you can upgrade the Perses to some more serious battleship. Its armoed hull is battle ready and the original shows how to upgrade the drives even more.
