Description
This pack adds a few small (very creatively named) support crafts. They are not very pretty but they are effective:
1. Squib is a flanker designed to be as cheap as possible and to barely use advanced materials. Though It still does enough damage to even deal with late game opponents if its properly used. (Try to attack from behind. The ship will try to ram automatically on right click).
2. Scout is a very cheap and small ship. It can be built early to reveal certain places of interest. You can also use it to distract enemies since its easy to replace if its accidentally lost. (This ship might sadly become unusable if vector thrust gets removed from the game)
3. Small storage is an early hauler build. Since a separate storage ship should be one of the first things to get this will allow you to remove storage from your main combat ship very early on. It can also be modified to be even cheaper.
4. 2dc is a fairly cheap ship that is still able to take a hit.
5. Sundiver is one of the cheapest sun miners you can get. Its shield radius is small so you have to be careful but its able to go right up to the surface of the star in return. (The point defence is there for crew manipulation. Making reactor assignments or turning the pd off might cause the shield uptime to worsen)
6. Station Killer is a very cheap rail kite that can safely kill any enemy without decent shield defences. Its very fragile so you have to be careful with it but its speed should allow you to outrun and out range any opponent.
7. Ultra Scout is a more advanced scout ship with a hyperdrive beacon, a sensor and more speed. It is a bit complicated to set up though:
Deactivate the airlock on hotkey 1. After waiting a bit activate it again and wait for the crew to leave. Then blow the charge.
Then blow the charges on hotkey 2.
Lastly unassign the crew from the cockpits for better thrust uptime.
8. Storm diver is an ion storm diver that also doubles as a sundiver. To enter sundiving mode just select part group 2 and turn off all systems.

Thank you! nice ships.

Ultra Scout: for me crew didn't want to leave this separated bunks on top. Had to resign them to another rooms (ones that are on main body. And as soon as they moved I was able to explode explosive charge. nice.
