ZeroG-Ripley

can you give us a material breakdown

i know no ship can go past 40 m/s but it just FEELS like the Ripley is begging too like it just wants more speed alLthe time and i love that feeling in that beast of a bomber it dosent go down easily and takes a beating for quite while. Great design. i hope they impliment a repair pad you can land on and it will detect and repair all blocks of a ship hidden Thrusters wouldnt be such an issue then but thats really the only issue

I've been using and testing this particular SV for a while now and I would give it a 8/10. Bad Stuff: Exposed fuel tank in the back (easily corrected by adding a couple thin hull walls to cover it up), and more importantly, you can't reach the thrusters to repair the one's damaged in combat. Good Stuff: Incredibly durable, good on gas, agility is on par (6/10), and good firepower. I've taken on 4 POI's in a row and when I stopped to repair all that was damaged were some hull blocks and 4 thrusters. Only ended up missing a couple hull blocks on the nose and leading adge of the wings but those are easily replaced. Good SV, Decent support capability (Ability to transport supplies and food), and surprisingly durable with great endurance. Keep it up :-)

@ICY I love hearing your stories on how you are enjoying ZeroG ships. It brings a smile to my face that you take the time to tell me your tales! Such enjoyment! It is not often enough someone takes that kind of time.
Also fighting is dirty buisness, sometimes we have to limp back home for repairs. But coming back from a close encounter and living to tell the tale is quite a thrill, hmm?!

I would suggest checking out @Yuma for their hard work and a great functioning Repair station!

As always I have lots of builds going at any givien moment and it just so happens i have been tossing a few design ideas for the next ZeroG military build, Hicks. Ill keep the wingspan down and concentrate armor in a few key areas! Thank you for the feedback and support!

This is an amazing creation that is racking up a lot of operating hours with us. It fills its intended role very well. We send these in to make the initial attack runs on installations to take care of defenses. We can easily attack with precision and are keen on making sure the underside is pointed at incoming fire whenever possible. Of course taking hits to the topside is disasterous but that's just the tradeoff in this design, and used in its intended role, should never be exposed to dangers on that side anyway. We have field modified ours and removed the two outboard guns as the guns were seeing little use in combat, often being used for opportunistic strafing runs on drones and the like. Maintenance is, as we've come to expect from Zero-G ships, extremely easy.

One minor issue we've come across is the wingspan makes it somewhat difficult to ferry these. Another much loved vessel and taking the time to provide feedback and our experiences with it!

out of curiousity, ive modified this ship to be more Harrier/Space Fighter-ish rather than wide winged bomber-esque, and wondered if you would like the BP of it. I did not make the original ship so i wont post it, however it flies extremely well and has all of the same buffs as you had on it, however i use missiles a lot less so the weapons have been changed to 3 Gatling and 1 rocket launcher (keeping it low tech) all centered around the aiming reticle and easy to aim/target

ALSO! im partially colorblind and cant see red shades very well so everything red is now blue ^_^

I love this one. Spent alot of time fixing it up after combat, didn't change a thing and took it back out (Survival). Will be continuing to use this model, thank Zero-G!

Not a fan of this plane, unfortunately. It's clunky and not too privvy with the enclosed cockpit, especially in PvP. Unsubscribed.

Nice aesthetic, but cockpit visibility is rather low and lateral thrust seems lethargic. Could just be my flying style, definitely looks kick ass!

Very clever design. Visually appealing but agile and effective in combat.

Includes O2 station, fridge and small constructor making it a mobile outpost.

Requires only Iron, Copper, Cobalt and Silicon to build in 2 hours.
