Thanatos-Mk-II-RVS-14

We at RasterOps Ventures would like to thank itdocman Engineering for their magnificent Xiphos design. Please visit their mod page to see, "Rate" and download the original design, if only in Creative mode to compare our two designs.

The RVS 14 Thanatos Mk II is a reinforced version of the Mk I. We chose not to replace the Mk I design, as we wanted to retain it as a reference point. Given the extent of the Symmetry Plane and the factory size class of 3, this ship might be considered a Frigate class. It only has a depth of 108m (54 blocks), which is ~1/5 of the current size limit...

New Thanatos designs are available. We encourage you to check them out and choose a new design the befits your needs. The Thanatos Mk III comes with the default hanger, Thanatos Mk IV has an extended hanger interior for parking SVs. The Thanatos Mk V has two additional smaller hangers.

A layer of armor was added on the top of the ship. This had the effect of lengthening the ship and increasing the width of the hangers. Despite this the Bridge is actually a little smaller, not just due to the new method of interior access. Previously, interior access to the Bridge was by port and starboard elevators that extended to the hangers. Those elevators were removed and the interior access was moved to the rear of the engineering section, reached from the main deck. Just take the rear elevator up to the sentry guns and then head up the stairwell. The port and starboard bridge exits still exist and a rear exit was added at the base of the stairwell.

Two additional turrets were added to the aft and there's room for more. A forward bridge was added but its practicality has yet to be determined. Just follow the "deck 2 forward corridor" to the front of the ship. And finally, for our more discerning customers, offline protection has been included.

All this may be yours for a pittance of 2199 credits. ;)

Loss of character life and/or all of your collected merch while piloting the Thanatos Mk II is the sole responsibility of said pilot. :P
