NR-6 Carnifex Gunship

A while after its release, the New Roads Team, the engineers behind the NR-3 Magdalena, found that it lacked the versatility sought by many of MTD's clients. NR decided that they needed to design a craft capable of performing in nearly all plans of attack. After long hours of work, the NR-6 Carnifex was born.

While the NR-3 mainly serves as a bomber, the Carnifex's possibly excessive firepower accounts for all targets and situations. Its armaments are as follows:

*=Can be toggled on or off
Machine guns:
~4 nose machine guns (small targets)
~8 wing machine guns (slightly larger targets, general purpose)*

Rockets:
~1 nose rocket launcher (small targets, precision)
~2 forward rocket pods (general purpose)*
~4 wing reloadable rocket launchers (large targets, strafing)

Other:
~2 side-mounted large missiles (small targets, precision, high damage - In hotbar 2, press #5 to launch left missile, #6 to launch right)
~Nose-mounted dogfighting/precision camera
~4 piston-mounted decoys (toggle on/off when extended/retracted respectively - #9, hotbar 1; #4, hotbar 2)

All machine gun sets have an autofire function, as well as a burst function that very briefly fires all MGs at once (#7, hotbar 2).

The NR-6's speed is focused on side and forward movement. It also has afterburners which can be fired for a 5 second duration by hitting #8 in hotbar 1. Keep in mind, the NR-6 is built for short-distance combat, and is powered solely by 2 batteries. Afterburners greatly increase power use.

The Carnifex uses a unique armor system that combines light and heavy armor, backed by wheel blocks in some places. These wheels provide support for the armor blocks and help to prevent them from denting.

The ship's storage capacity consists of 4 medium containers and 2 small containers, as well as 2 oxygen tanks. Again, this craft is designed for combat close to home. It will go through ammo and battery power quickly, and needs to be able to resupply at any time. The large O2 capacity and hotbarred antenna toggle allows the pilot to survive in the cockpit for long periods of time, should they need to escape combat while unable to reach a resupply area.
