AXON Robotics Military Drone Craft

AXON Robotics

 

Hello, and welcome to, er, this page. I've seen several people do craft repositories for their creations, and I thought I would do the same

At the moment, the list of craft is quite small, and it's all military, but eventually, I'd like to expand it to include pure stock craft, such as scouting drones or submarines. Currently, I 'specialize' in making naval ships and planes, though I daresay the planes are better than the ships

 

Anyways. Enjoy the craft, and if you try them out, make sure to tell me what you thought of them

 

Naval Forces

 

Renegade-Class Corvette

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Renegade-Class-Corvette

Description/Usage

A relatively small ship designed to counter all manner of airborne threats, ranging from heavy bombers to missiles and even dedicated ground attack craft. While the primary armament consists of laser weaponry, the on-board Oerlikon cannons are more than capable of eliminating targets at close-range. These ships are better suited to coastal areas, but can also travel in deeper waters. Top speed when fully loaded is 50 m/s, but speeds can easily top 90 m/s once the ship has spent most of it’s fuel. While the corvettes are very stable at 60 m/s or below, turning hard at higher speeds will lead to flips, kabooms, and possible bankruptcy of smaller insurance companies.

 

Part Count: 105

 

Armament

6 x Oerlikon Cannons

4 x Lasers

8 x Sidewinder Missiles

 

Range (D-V): 95k

 

 

Frigate

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Frigate

Description/Usage

 

The Renegade-Class Corvettes focus on AA weaponry, and are therefore vulnerable to surface-based attacks. The frigate was the solution to this weakness, and now fills the role of ship-v-ship combat. Armed with Abrams cannons and not much else, these ships can be versatile if used correctly, and if they are deployed in groups. The low part count of 75 allows them to be deployed in large convoys, effectively labeling them as ‘swarm ships.’ The vessels include Oerlikon cannons, which are sufficient enough to drive off air-to-air fighters and the occasional scouting plane, but not dedicated ground attack craft. Top speed of 45 m/s when fully loaded.

 

Part Count: 75

 

Armament

4 x Oerlikon Cannons

4 x Abrams Cannons

 

Range (D-V): 120k

Additional Planned Craft:

Spoiler

AXON PTB (Patrol Boat) (Prototype)

And....

AAS (Amphibious Assault Ship) (Undergoing Testing)

 

But yeah, there's only two existing naval ships

(I have more, but they are either inferior, ugly, or too heavy on part counts. Feel free to ask for them though)

 

Aerial Assets

(The Lancers are hands down among my best planes)

Lancer ASF

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Lancer-ASF

Stock Version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hsevvrmxw1gr2e1/Lancer ASF (STOCK).craft?dl=0

Description/Usage

 

The Lancer line of aircraft has a focus on acceleration and high maneuverability, but can only operate over relatively short ranges. The craft are versatile and easy to handle, and very nimble. They are equipped with RTG’s and jammers for extra stealth.

Fun Fact: The Lancer ASF once made the #5 spot on @exbyde's Air Superiority Fighter Competition, and defended it from more than half a dozen craft before losing to....I forget who....

~The stock version is too maneuverable~

Part Count: 59

 

Armament

* The ASF edition of the Lancer is optimized for air-to-air combat *

4 x AMRAAM Missiles

2 x Vulcan Cannons

 

Range (D-V): 19k

Axblade ASF

Spoiler

Stock Version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fubmnvrk0kd27q1/Axblade (STOCK).craft?dl=0

Description/Usage

 

The Axblade line of aircraft fill the gap in the Lancer’s performance: long range operations. A range that is nearly four times that of the Lancers allows these craft to embark on long missions over long periods of time, with little support. Equipped with RTG’s, jammers, and a lot fuel.

 

Part Count: 60

Berzerker 2.0

Spoiler

https://kerbalx.com/Earthlinger/Berzerker-20

Stock Version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hwbzxftkllelw1r/Berzerker 2_0 (STOCK).craft?dl=0

Description/Usage

 

Made after someone said that a plane with no missiles was a useless plane. Nevertheless, the Berzerker Drone – one of my personal favorites – managed to claw its way to the middle of the rankings in the Air Superiority Fighter Competition. It’s weakness appears to be rabies, sadly…..

The plane has a very low takeoff speed, a high TWR, and enough reaction wheels to prevent it from going into a flat-out spin. Comes equipped with countermeasures, including two jammers to confuse enemy radar. This, paired with the relatively small size, means enemy fighters will have a hard time locking onto the Berzerker.

Fun Fact: The original Berzerker was infamous for it's vicious, double pair of 50 caliber turrets. The orientation of the guns allowed it to shoot literally in any position. The plane, however, was discontinued due to it's 'cheatiness.'

Part Count: 42
