-SX-Series Ships-


Shiny

Recommended Posts

Hello and welcome! This is my somewhat-new line of SX-line ships. With a few purchases from the SX-line, you could start a large scale war with most of the Kerbin nations easily guard your transit and cargo operations in the entire system!

They're all completely stock besides mechjeb.

SXF-4 Frigate

Download- https://www.dropbox.com/s/m30uorybzllpg30/SXF-4.craft ($36,999,999,000 per unit)

First ship in the SX-series. It only has two NERVA engines and one mainsail. It is a small frigate, and is only meant to operate in Kerbin Orbit. However, due to it's low mass, the SXF-4 is the most maneuverable of the series.

SXF-5 Frigate

Latest-generation SX-series frigate. It has eight NERVA engines and one mainsail. This larger frigate has 6000+ delta v, and even more when only using the NERVA engines.

SXC-2 Cruiser

First cruiser in the SX-series, and the largest ship in the fleet currently. It has also eight NERVA engines and one mainsail. It has a slightly larger range than the SXF-5 Frigate.

D-4 Ascent MKIII SSTO Interceptor

This small SSTO should get into orbit with more than enough fuel for orbital maneuvers.

Currently... none of these ships have weapons. But I'm working on modifying them for cannon and missile weaponry, and we're having some success. However, I still need to clear out some bugs like separators getting stuck in the cannons...

Also, 1DTozJn.png Coming soon!

Thanks for the comments guys! Some weaponized versions of some of the ships are coming up soon.

Look great.

One thing to point out: One hit to those fuel tanks and they could be gone.

Indeed. However, one hit to anything besides the wings and any kind of ship, armor or not, would be gone. Even small probe body mini-torpedoes that I use for my cannons tend to pierce right through some of the tougher, more armored ships. Because of this, I tend to just go for the looks.

I'm having trouble getting these ships into space; Mechjeb freaks out after 10k and decides to make me do cartwheels :\ I've attempted manually a couple times but my engines decided they'd rather fly off the ship than do their job. lol.

Ah, it takes a small amount of trickery to get these ships into orbit. Usually, turning on RCS right when the gravity turn begins (plus a bit of prayer) does the trick.

I attempted to add the craft files to my ship folder and when I went to load one I was told I had invalid craft files and was prompted to delete them. Are there additional parts I need to download or something?

Thanks!

Do you have mechjeb (1.9.8)? Are you on the right version?

I ended up having to minimalize my burn and turn on rcs at the same time as the gravity turn to keep things in control. That did the trick.
