Description
!!Built for Reforged Eden 1.9, but does work in Vanilla!!

Welcome to Maddog's Fugly Engineering! Here we provide all the useful garbage-looking hardware that only the confluence of restrained budgets and military requirements can produce!

The Suicide Jockey has been my go-to early game SV for first managing to hop around a planet quickly to nab resources for more serious constructions. While it is an open cockpit, it is possible to get up to starter moons and asteroids if you find an EVA booster (I usually have no trouble doing so). The ship has a chin-mounted slot for either a weapon or a mining drill. There is a small ammo controller and a container controller. The container controller can be swapped to harvest if you're using for mining.

***FEATURES***
>Only plastic, iron, copper, and silicon construction
>High maneuverability empty
>Cheap, early mobility
>Slot for gatling gun (or other weapon) or mining drill
>Just over 3k main storage
>375 ammo storage

I also find this ship useful as a back-up factory ship for something very fast to get me back to a death or crash site, or as a disposable scout to see what an enemy structure is capable of without risking something more valuable.

Good luck and may you always escape by the skin of your teeth!
