Sadly, no, not yet. As you can see by the last picture, I have an unhealthy habit of constantly trying to over-engineer my weapons to make them as unfair to fight against as possible, and have thus far found no need for medium-large ships which can carry a heftier arsenal, since usually, one hit will be enough But just in case you still want to fight me, and would prefer me to use a larger ship, the only other possibility would be for me to use my cruiser: Warning: I take the classification of "cruiser" very lightly. This piece of garbage is almost 900 parts, with most of it going into struts and needlessly complex torpedoes. Viewer discretion is advised.

I have some pretty decent ships I'd be willing to fight with:

An orbital shipyard, perhaps?

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Organization History _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the dawn of the new century, the discovery of Kethane granted us a great abundance. But despite our prosperity, we desired more, and our greed turned to bloodshed. War raged for decades, fouling the air, and poisoning the land. The light of our achievements faded. As the nations of Kerbin clamored for control of the ever-expanding frontier of space travel, the supercontinent opposite the KSC was faced with a much different predicament. Confronted by the grim prospect of complete and utter economic collapse, the previously influential oil tycoon UNSR pleaded to its long-time allies for any form of monetary assistance they could allot--be it by the re-negotiation of trade and production deals, or via a straightforward injection of funds into the UNSR's economy--a desperate, last-ditch attempt to reshape their field of focus from oil production, to something more sustainable in this harsh, modern world of competition. The call for help was unheard, however, with the neighboring countries discarding the ailing superpower in their wakes, as they clashed for dominance of Kerbin's upper skies. With nobody left to turn to, the UNSR began to disintegrate--the local militias and private organizations rebelled, and with no government military force being capable of refraining them, the once gleaming cities were reduced to battlegrounds--each private army and corporate militia vying for the control of what were now vast fields of crumbled concrete, and graveyards of fallen skyscrapers. With each passing day, the end to this bloodshed appeared further, and further away beyond our reach. The hundreds of sectors that remained after the collapse were reduced to nothing more than shattered fragments of recollection, as the more ruthless and savage factions annihilated them in their ceaseless crusades for the control of the ruins of what was once a prosperous world power. Among such factions, was the Shattered Sky Initiative. A beacon of hope amidst the war-torn refugees, and the closest to a pre-war democracy that any faction in the conflict had yet managed to achieve, the ultimate goal of this coalition was unmistakable--regain control of the capital, and restore UNSR to its former glory--by whatever means necessary--under the banner of the Shattered Skies.

Designed as a direct competitor to other, more recent 5th generation aircraft, the DN-65 has shown worthwhile potential in combating its adversaries, and has been cleared for public export.

Capable of circumnavigation, the Model 72's high ceiling of operation, massive carrying capacity, and cruising speeds nearing that of Mach 3.4, make it an exceptional strategic bomber and intercontinental strike craft.

Wonder how much science one can squeeze out of those 12 Gravioli detectors.... Nevertheless, it's a great design!

Personally, I prefer to position the rear landing gear quite a bit of distance away from the CoM, as I find that having it closer makes flaring and slowing down before landing considerably more difficult, as you are constantly at risk of having your engines collide with the runway. But other than that, having them closer, and thereby benefitting from the decreased take-off time due to the lever effect, is definitely a good argument for doing so.

Perhaps a small teaser as to what the Prometheus project is? Well-executed foreshadowing of a further climax is usually the best way to captivate audiences after the majority of the plot is already enacted.
