Mantid AC4

Update 4/8/15 - hooked the cockpit up to the conveyor system for oxygen supply. since i cannot place a generator or tank within the fighter without extensive redesign, you will have to resort to placing oxygen bottles in the storage containers for your oxygen.

I also replaced the Maglock Docking Clamps with the Maglock MkIIs, making both fighters lighter and faster. This does mean you will need to switch out mods, however, and i apologize for any inconveniences in this area.

Update 12/5/14 - Updated the coveyor system of the fighters. This allowed for the reactors to be slightly more protected, and produced more storage space. The edit was done primarily to make things easier for automated assembly facilities

This is a simple edit to my Mantid Fighter which you can find here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=351125243

I made this version to be easily used in automated factories that either conform to or are compatible with Phoenix regulations.

It is meant to go along with the Vespid Factory Cruiser found here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=350781681

This version edits the tail of the Mantid to have a line of 6 red blocks which will be cut off by a grinder in the factory.

Acceleration: 26.79 m/s^2

Both the Mantid variants were made off of the Wasp Chassis. The Mantid was created to be a more compact version of the Wasp, and be more geared towards fighting larger targets, rather than the Anti-Fighter role of the Wasp. As such, they are both outfitted with heavy weaponry.

The AC4 is a more well-rounded fighter, with 4 Autocannons that allow it to take on either lightly armored large ships or chew apart enemy fighters with ease. It also features 1 Battlecannon to help it tackle heavy armor.
