Hercules Manned Maneuvering Unit Mk-13

[xoknight]

Well guys, the Hercules MMU Mk-13 is here. The versions before the Mk-7, Mk-8,Mk-9, Mk-10, Mk-11, and the Mk-12 can be found below. The Mk-1 through 6 never made it out of the prototype stages. You may be asking what is an MMU? Well an MMU is an MMU is a Manned Maneuvering Unit, pretty much a souped-up jetpack designed to carry Kerbals farther than they can ever before than their EVA jetpacks. MMU's give more maneuverability, range, and control than the normal jetpacks. Given the time, MMU's become a major necessity and tool on your spacecraft or space station. Like for moving modules around, transporting crew, or just inspecting crafts can be very useful. This version of the MMU specializes in transporting crew around a space station or craft with quick ease. It carries 5 seats, with plenty of electricity and monopropellant (which it is powered by). It also carries a junior docking port and a wide torch.

The Mk-7 has maneuverability and control, but less fuel.

Also the Mk-7 recently got featured in you tuber Goosexi's 2013 build-off competition:

Guess who won?

-The Hercules MMU Mk-8: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/67453-Hercules-Manned-Maneuvering-Unit-Mk-8-%28IT-S-FINALLY-HERE%21%21%21%29

The Mk-8 carries more fuel, but at a price of maneuverability.

-The Hercules MMU Mk-9: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/68057-Hercules-Manned-Maneuvering-Unit-Mk-9

The Mk-9 carries a bit more fuel than the Mk-7, but less than the Mk-8. It is very maneuverable.

-The Hercules MMU Mk-10: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/69150-Hercules-Manned-Maneuvering-Unit-Mk-10

The Mk-10 carries a whopping 380 units of fuel (more than the Mk-7, Mk-8, Mk-9) and is installed with a torch and a SAS wheel. But is bulky.

Nice! Could probably be used as a Gilly lander.

It looks very cool and is definitely useful. But I think it is too big and three Kerbals are too much to call it a little jetpack. It looks more than a little space canoe.

Good work nevertheless.

Very cool. Glad to see you still producing these.
