Battlestar Valkyrie

Description
So I modified u/CptKapton's awesome Mercury Class Battlestar and have been having a blast with it. Much fun inspired me to build the blueprint of the Valkyrie Battlestar - in canon this ship is about half the size of a Galactica or Mercury Battlestar, however:

" The Valkyrie type has more weapons per square meter than any other class. Equipped with 20 small turrets, and 33 heavier (though much smaller than on other classes) ones, it has a huge number of guns. Presumably, there are an unknown number of point defense guns that would be located between the armor plating, much like the Mercury class .... with at least 6 silos containing ship to ship missiles."

In Cosmoteer, it's about half the size, cost, and a little over half the crew compliment of CptKapton's Mercury. Still a hefty 1.2 Credits, but loads of fun. Get's up to about 40mps, she's a mini-Tank / Area Denial ship with enough armor to stand up to a multibeam Ion ship for long enough to drill into it's juicy bits.

Like the BattleStar that was inspired by it, I used the turrets mod.
