Subject: [FT] Sol SDN-X (4th proposal)
Finally found the pictures again. Well, we want the UN to be powerful, but capable of multirole actions, so how about adding Needlebeams? The small boxes about halfway down the wing could easily be used as the mounting for them. The hanger decks are only convention, how about a limited fighter bay for long range reconnaisance? By ripping out the troop bay and the SMRs we can add an ADFC with no other modifications. If this is designed using a Weak hull, we get 233 & 202 mass respectively. ***** UNSC Sol Class SDN-X Mass: 300 Points: 995 + 8 pts of LR fighters Hull: Average FTL: Std Main Drive: 3 Armour: 15 Damage Track: 90; 23/23/22/22 Crew Factor: 15+8 marines Screen-2 Firecontrols: 5 Superior Sensors 3 x Class-3 batteries (FP/F/FS) - nose, wingtips 2 x Class-2 batteries (AP/FP/F) 2 x Class-2 batteries (F/FS/AS) 2 x SMR(std) (FP/F/FS) - sidenose launcher 4 x Pulsetorpedoes (FP/F/FS) - wingtip mounts 4 x Needlebeams (F) - wing box mounts 6 x PDS Cargo (Troops/Passengers): 8 Fighter Bay (2 LR fighters) - 3 mass UNSC Gaia class SDN Mass: 260 Points: 857+8 pts of LR fighters Hull: Average FTL: Std Main Drive: 3 Armour: 15 Damage Track: 78; 20/20/19/19 Crew Factor: 13 Screen-2 Firecontrols: 5 ADFC Superior Sensors 3 x Class-3 batteries (FP/F/FS) - nose, wingtips 2 x Class-2 batteries (AP/FP/F) - broadsides 2 x Class-2 batteries (F/FS/AS) - broadsides 4 x Pulsetorpedoes (FP/F/FS) - wingtip mounts 4 x Needlebeams (F) - wing box mounts 6 x PDS Fighter Bay (2 fighters) - 3 mass 'Neath Southern Skies - http://users.mcmedia.com.au/~denian/ > -----Original Message-----
