Description
Description
The Orbital Trust Authority required a vehicle that exhibited fast acceleration and manoeuvring coupled with decent firepower and armour. The OTA-180 Raider came to fruition, fulfilling the specified role featuring superb characteristics. It is the backbone of the OTA fleet, being produced en-masse.

The Raider is designed for hit-and-run tactics; utilising its massive missile payload for quick, crippling strikes and its speed to out-manoeuvre enemy guided drones and missiles. Generally, the OTA has employed fast-moving fleets throughout its existence to maintain a strategic edge over contemporary enemy factions.

The Swarmer FGB-1A Missile is the main missile of the OTA fleet. It is designed for standardised usage and production. It has decent overall capabilities; good acceleration and a sizeable compliment of fuel. The warhead utilised is the 15.1 kg VFEB-1 Kessler Rose Flak Bomb, producing 3119 pieces of Tungsten Shrapnel and weighing in at 4.81 g a piece.

Note: To protect the 4 large 902 m^2 radiators, retract them using the advanced options in the left side of the menu at the start of combat. It will prevent missiles from hitting the radiators on deployment and keep the radiators tucked under the armour protrusion to prevent enemy weapon fire from hitting them if you're set nose-forward to the enemy.

Hope this tip helps!

Awesome work. I still need to test this out but looks good. Very stock-like but high quality, to be sure. Also yes good, graphite aerogel.

Hey guys, if it doesn't work please let me know! I can't exactly remember if anything I used was from the future materials pack so I'll make sure to include it as a requirement ASAP if the vehicle is non-functional after download.

I hope you enjoy this rendition of my conceptual vehicle, may it serve you well.
