Boxer Fighter Hydroid

Lore: Since the invention of Galdax Thrusters, a majority of new ships and craft have moved over to the new tech exclusively in the 2125 era. However much like their counterparts in the Jx Squadron, there are some die-hard Boxer Squadron Pilots that prefer the thunder of hydrogen engines to the electrical hum of Galdax Thrusters. Not to mention some in the Phantom Elite Division that wish to have backups should the modern fighters be unavailable. The Hydroid is the Boxer Squadron’s hybrid of Galdax and Hydrogen tech. These craft are typically seen around outposts and installations or occasionally sent out as part of carrier divisions. Assignments given to these craft are typically shorter to medium range. Pilots of the Hydroid often switch propulsion types when possible to conserve fuel, often leaving both types of thruster active during combat to augment speed.

Notes: I created the items in my 2125 era mod because I wasn’t satisfied with the performance of many of the vanilla blocks in game. As such I created my own variants which allowed me greater control over the abilities of various craft and stations I wanted to create. The original Boxer Fighter was created years ago after a scrap in space pirate territory when I was forced to scavenge parts to create a cheapo craft to get back to base. The original was an amalgamation of hydrogen, ion, and even an odd atmo thruster or two that never should’ve flew but somehow got me back to base. When breaking the frame down I decided to keep it to annoy a friend that isn’t too fond of boxy type ships. As I experimented more with the original frame I developed an atmo fighter and hydrogen fighter based on that frame. I have also put a lot more time into the game and learned quite a bit since then. When I made my 2125 mod I wanted to recreate my Boxer Squadron based in 2125 tech, and this fighter is the new hydrogen based fighter meant to succeed my old vanilla hydrogen designs. The 6 Galdax Thrusters on the back are a callback to the original boxer fighter from years ago.

Overall this fighter like the Atmopiercer and it’s pure Galdax brother are meant to be pure combat craft.
