Typhos

Description
Typhon class subs are known for their brutish appearance, reasonable array of light and heavy firepower, and their general dependability. This model has been extensively modified to make better use of its internal space. Retrofits have provided this Typhon with improved dive characteristics and internal efficiency. Boasting a dual-purpose airlock/docking port, significant internal storage, centralized engineering and improved crew amenities, the Typhos is a rare yet favored variant among mercenaries.

This Typhon class attack sub presents itself as a Typhon 1.5, in some ways. Many quality of life adjustments have been added, but the sub stays well within vanilla statistical constraints to ensure a standard gameplay experience. The lower deck, originally barren, has been completely retrofitted for utility and efficiency. Engineering has been shifted to the lower fore side, such that any produced ammo/equipment can be moved immediately to the gunnery or armory compartments. (In addition, all engineering equipment has been linked to the fabricator for ease of access). The ventral crew cabin, originally a vulnerability, has been converted to an additional ballast tank - improving dive characterstics to a decent degree. The reactor room's aft doorway has been walled off, improving flooding resistance from aft impacts. Autodoors have been added to the lower decks to promote quick traversal of the submarine, while manual doors maintain flood resistance in the dorsal compartments. Four crate shelves allow the Typhos to carry 16 crates as cargo, and storage has been added throughout the sub to increase utility overall.

The exterior is modified somewhat, as well. Separatist hull-mounted equipment differentiates this Typhon from other variants of its class, and the originally blunt nose of the Typhon has been gutted and replaced by two hydrodynamic bow sections to ensure superior navigation. The exterior lights have been slightly improved in their coverage, in order to promote better crew visibility near the submarine.

The Typhos represents an attempt to make a more lategame-accessible variant of the Typhon class of submarines. Let me know how it plays - commentary and feedback is welcome!
