Description
The Hǫfuð-class Destroyer Escort is a warship by Valkyrja - Maintenance & Engineering, designed for escort-duties and pack-deployment.

Being rather small in size, the ship comes heavily armed with a quad-barrel railgun assembly and a set of 8 Artillery turrets, arranged in a centerline layout, capable of superfire. This gives the Hofund superior offensive capabilities compared to many other warships in her displacement category, enabling her to engage and overwhelm much larger targets.

A selection of secondary weapons, consisting of 25mm Gatling- and Autocannon-turrets provide the Hofund with a potent defense-screen against smaller attack-craft.

This ship was heavily inspired by "The Expanse" novels and tv-series. It comes with many design-elements from this fandom. This includes an interior that is aligned perpendicular to the main source of thrust and the Thruster-layout leans heavily towards a 'flip-and-burn'-style of piloting.


This item is survival-ready! It is fully conveyor-linked, thruster-damage compatible and uses no mods and no subgrids!

Certified beauty!

I have already used the Ridill-class extensively and modified it using AWE to become the centerpiece of our fleet crusher squadron in my server, and I will certainly be replacing her outdated escorts with this lovely model. Well done once more!

Hands down the best piece of ART on here !

Excellent turret placement!

It's a shame that this beauty didn't exist back when I did my original video as I would highly recommend that other content creators check out this amazing creation as an example of "how to do it right".

Amazing work as always Taidyr! :)

Thanks so much! Sincerely appreciate it and I think players will have a blast.

Hey @alucard,

you're free to use and modify my stuff however you desire. All I ask for is for a link to the original item, should you decide to publish that mod or blueprint :)

Awesome job as always, this was just the building inspiration I needed!

Really cool looking and well-designed ship.

I'm a server administrator and our players would probably love fighting this. Are you alright with us adding it as an npc for our players? We may need to modify it a b it to fit with our weapons pack.

give the required dlc a quick check, I can see some catwalk railings from one of the deco packs

not overly massive. very well designed, good protection all around the exterior. could look like something that would be adopted in the expanse. Very nice work! :cozyspaceengineersc:
