Kerdinand´s Military Craft

[Guest]

Now that the new forum has arrived I think it is time to make my own showcase thread, a collection of my craft. Here you will find mostly military stuff. I build armed vehicles with BD armory, for land, water, air and space.

 

My naming scheme:

Spoiler

The numbering goes like the following:

[Medium][Craft Type]-[Craft number][Craft version] [Craft name]

f.e.: DS-1C Lupus

There are four mediums:

• A: Space
• B: Air
• C: Ground
• D: Water & Subwater

I will add a detailed list of the craft types here later.

The craft depends on the crafts produced from the same type earlier, if e.g. four interceptors have already been built, the fifth will be called BI-5A.

The verions depends on the version.

The craft name is arbitrarly.

My Action Group System

Spoiler

I will use the same AG system on all of my craft.

Engines are listed from 1 up. So 1 is primary engine, 2 is secondary engine (or mode switch for primary engine) and so on.

Cargo Bays will always be bound to the first AG after the engines.

Both Solar panels and Radiator panels are bound to the first AG after cargo bays. (On the same key!)

5 will drop probes, if probes exist

6 and 7 activate special BD armory functions, like Radar or IR

8 will drop countermeasures

9 will cycle through the BDA weapons

0 will fire the selected BDA weapon

Abort will activate special things

My Craft:

Here are my craft, in no particular order. Under each craft picture, there will be a link redirecting you to to the release post (Where you can find detailed information) and a download link.

And here is the first craft:

The Lupus is a small strike submarine designed to perform quick attacks, but not long-term

missions. It is equipped with 3 Hellfire torpedoes for heavier and a 30mm chaingun for lighter

targets. It can reach up to 40 m/s and, thanks to TWR >1 with Afterburners, it can also escape

the water and fly (a bit)! Using its two parachutes and some engines assistance it can also

submerge again savely. Have fun! I suggest Hyperedit for getting it into the water.

 

I think I´m confident with the post formatting so far. Any feedback on the formatting (and the craft!) would be appreciated!

The Sword is also a rather small craft (a destroyer to be exact) but unlike the Lupus it was
designed for long-range missions where it can use all of its 8000m/s of Delta-v. Once arrived,
the Sword can do the battle with its 2 20mm Vulcans against heavier and its 8 .50cal turrets
against lighter targets. Latter are mounted on 4 small outtriggers and can inflict damage in an
almost full sphere. The only drawback of the Sword is its low acceleration that makes it
vulnerable in close-in combat. But as long as you keep distance, you should be fine!
