They have some space inside, underneath the main superstructure, where you could theoretically put kerbals:

Not very comfortable though :P They're all drone ships. Here's the biggest I've made:

Also, if you want to see them in action, feel free to browse through this:

How much would one of these run me?

So, any war machines are allowed?

How bout these:

And yes.  Any warmachines.  Creativity is encouraged rather than just slapping some guns on a box with wheels but in general people on KSP forums don't have an issue with that.

Is there a way to detach the warhead manually?

I figured it out I guess.  I tried your manual detach idea and that made the control surfaces non functional, then I just re-staged the warhead decoupler in the same stage and now it works...no idea what the issue was.

Ah okay. I only recommend buying the Frigate and the Corvette. The other ships I have built are imperfect and overall not worth it :D

Frigate (ship to ship combat): https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Frigate_2

77 parts, 345 tons, cost of 188,666

Corvette (anti-air combat): https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Renegade-Class-Corvette

125 parts, 252 tons, cost of 240,284

:)

RTG's take up a lot of the cost. Replace them with fuel cells and all should be good....ish

Also, these are naval ships. They tend to cost more :D

Also also, the four lasers on the corvette add up to 30k, which is significant

Honestly, that is a great looking cruise missile, and an especially great show of modular-ness in part of your manticore platform. Job well done.

And judging by the stats you gave me on the original manticore, I did not expect you to squeeze 2600 kilometers out of it. Again, well done.

Finally got around to making a video on it.

Apparently this video contains content from something called UMG. Apparently this video is also blocked in my country on copyright grounds. Halp.

Carp, hang on let me put up a muted version.

That should work...I think.

Yes, it is 1960s, but it is still a fearsome AAA gun system.

Brah it doesn't matter to me if its WWI era or modern day.  Great work!

Soooo after building that cruise missile...I made a jet based on it...I'm already past 2600km and not even 25% fuel expended.

My latest multi-role fighter that does quite well in an air superiority role, the Bear.

The version on KerbalX is armed with air to air missiles and jammers, but it can easily be refitted with rather large amounts of air to ground missiles, bombs or even cruise missiles.  One of the jammers can also be replaced with a targeting pod for getting the air to ground missiles where they need to go.  If you just want to have fun flying around the KSC, turn on the gimbals on the engines and set the control authority on the elevators to 100 and enjoy the freedom of not following the prograde vector.

You had to mention turn rate, so...

Turn rate is quite important for ground attackers. They need to be able to strafe the targets, and a higher turn rate means more attack runs per time interval
