War Eagle 1 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 So today I got board and made a new fighterYes this is a replica of a Mig 21 Light weight, really fast for it being single engine (140m/s after take off)Comes with working missilesonly problem I have with it is how bad at turning it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Sry bad choice of words. It's disabled. I hit it going to slow, but its kinda like a test shot i had to know what the minimum velocity was to injure it. I doubt the armor would have dinged much had i hit that at 120ksp. Nice shot by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) Well that drek died. She cant move he engines are killed.missiles are reverse reloadable, i.e. they can turn around, redock to the front, and you have propultion.also it's your turn. persist is in my post from earlier.I don't have heavy enough ships so you're gonna have to wait till I finish the Scythe which will weigh in the area of 100 tons(12-14 hours)that will be epic! Duel bet. one and a Drek. Edited November 5, 2013 by zekes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 in that case my ship would not be dead either because the missiles are all still attached and i can use them as my propulsion, if that is what you are talking about. I'm at work so i cant till i get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at work so i cant till i get back.yeah... i guess. but yours is in much worse shape, with the cockpit dangling out. the only reason i didn't kill it with AFMs is because i was being merciful to your kerb. Not to mention your ship is now just three missiles and a cockpit... you probably have like 100m/s D/V at max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartwo Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Unassisted means using dedicated movement engines not weapons,backups hidden somewhere safe are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Unassisted means using dedicated movement engines not weapons,backups hidden somewhere safe are fine.lol the Dreks have that, but I never tested it and GUESS WHAT? they don't work Looks like a hotfix XIV-IIc will have to be made, with safer engines and backup power.

camulus777 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Ya and putting 2 20 thrust engines on the inside wont help i noticed those when i inspected your craft. I also noticed you have very, very, very, few struts. As if each bit is linked only to one thing? I copied the design last night... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I copied the design last night...yeah, The ships are really floppy ( i can't warp past 2x) but it really absorbs impact, it stops it from transfering through the ship.

War Eagle 1 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 It has been awhile sense I flew a Excalibur but I knew I needed to update it. Meet the Mk4. Armed with 7 small SRB missilesThis fighter has now been reborn as an attacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 try "every single part of the ship is wiggling around"....but only at high warp and with ASAS onAh i see. I have not put your ships through the ringer yet seeing as the craft file for the drek before these ones is still not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Ah i see. I have not put your ships through the ringer yet seeing as the craft file for the drek before these ones is still notIt's not too noticible unless the engines are on on the Drek, but in the 15-II it is WAY more obvious, the whole ship flops 10-20 degrees up and down on x4 warp with SAS on.And i finally go the Emergency engines working... The nev Drekevak XIV-IIc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Do they give enough detla V?a few hundred on a full tank. mabye 1000, but it really is just for getting close enough to the enemy to loose the smart missiles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 the 2.5km lolI just got home ill blow up the next drek in a min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 OK a bit more speed did the trick. In your new dreks also I would fix where your mane probe core is cause its right next to the engines. Other than that that is some nice plate.http://www./download/yv95a2lp7g8gi0a/persistent.sfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 the 2.5km lolI just got home ill blow up the next drek in a min. EDIT yeah, but ah well i guess i have to live with it. Taking my turn now.I made new jettesonable fuel tanks for the Drek and a Drek "Talon" Interplanetary Space Tug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Looks cool. I like it. Is that for legit missions?recovery of crippled ships, mostly. Or probably setting up orbital fuel depots (which my ships rely on to get anywhere)...lol stop hitting my Dreks in their knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Beowulf Is dead!Jaguar took two of Riley's missiles and went after Beowulf. One shot, from 1.5 KM away, right up the barrel. Broke her into several useless peices.Scratch one for Jaguar. Avenge the Riley! Becomes the rallying cry of the 144th battle group.http://www./?c9nq66egzvkc1ay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camulus777 Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Like i said you put your command pod right next to the engines so all i have to do is keep the ball on it. I did manage to get going a bit faster this time 35 extra kms made a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
