UEC_SV_Sentinel

Description
Name: Sentinel
Class: Small Vessel
Role: Anti-fighter craft
Crew: 1 pilot
Owned by Faction: UEC (United Earth Coalition)
Unlock level: 12
Prduction time: 1h 8m

Description:
The “Sentinel” class Interceptor designed by UEC scientist is a fast, manoeuvrable and versatile craft designed for patrol, escort, planet and Capital Ship defence, both in space, planet and orbital zones. The prime role of this fighter craft is to engage enemy fighter crafts or other similar targets of same classification. Many Sentinels are upgraded with all sorts of different weaponry; this makes the Sentinel a good all-around attack craft.

Sentinel are often seen stationed planet side on UEC base installations, ready to engage incoming enemys form orbit.
A squadron of Sentinels consist normally of three to five fighters, and usually in V-fighter pattern, a doctrine favourited by any UEC commanders.

This craft hold some survival equipment if the pilot should be so unfortunate enough to get shot down in enemy territory, and no help receivable within a shorter period of time.

This vessel is armoured primarily by titanium plast-Steel composite material, some vital parts of the craft-frame, such as the cockpit, weapon, and engine parts made by titanium foam nano-armour plating (develop by TITAN-TECH).

Armed by standard with two twin-linked forward-mounted 15mm Gatling guns, and two twin-linked forward-mounted missile launchers (homing). The Sentinel is often upgraded with air to ground missile launchers under the wings to engaged ground based targets. It is also very common that the Gatling guns are replaced with twin-linked pulse lasers when resources are available, or when enemy engagements intensified

The Propulsion force of this vessel is made by four NEXUS ION-6 pulse-powered turbine thrusters. (Develop by NEXSUS POWER GRID).


Suggestions / Tips:
- this craft holds some survival equipment such as one 02-station and a few 02 tanks, but there is prepared for additional space, you can place a mobile constructer system and some few cargo boxes.

- If you believe there should be changes, please give me a note then.
- The consideration behind my designs is not based on the best or cheapest output, but more on an idea or whatever falls to my mind at that time. This time it’s based on building a certain design to a faction, the UEC (United Earth Coalition) which makes use of the white and blue colour.

have you given up on empyrion or ship making? you are very good and would love more ships from you

5 Stars! Love this ship. It's solid, but can accelerate very well in all directions (13m/s^2 laterally is better than mostly anything else I've seen on the workshop). I like how you left the port and rear storage empty so we can choose what to put there.

I moved the Gatlings to the nose because I noticed on some ships side Gatlings can shoot your own SV when shooting at close targets. Not sure if that would happen with yours because the guns are 1 block away from the body, but didn't wanna risk it!

Love the design and it does fly very well. But i got a catastrofic hit on a IA base attack. I was going to attack an alien base when i got hit that pentrated the hull. The result was all fuel tanks, O2 tank, O2 station and ammo boxes was gone in an explosion. Maybe there would be a possibility to spread them out so they wont explode in a chain reaction.

Oh ok paul thanks i did not know that i always thought there had to be physical access.

Maff, from inside the cockpit or standing on the ship, press 'P' and that will open up the ship component list. You can select any component from that list.

Hey thorman123456789

Yes and no… The Forerunner is a cap-ship in its own right...A low-priced Cap-ship, and thereby low armoured and armed… A starter cap-ship with only the most needed… and with Warp engine.
But the Outlaw would then by a high-priced warship, one you would build in the late phase…
I need to create a middle-class Cap-ship with some or none transport capacity, for middle-phase in the game…

The intention behind the Valkyrien, Marauder and the Asgardian was to work with the Outlaw.
The newly Sentinel project was created to work with the Outlaw as well, but it seems that the hangar bay is a little too small… to hold four Sentinels at same time…
