Morigan Exploration Frigate

U.N.S. Morigan SR-103A ( Vanilla Build, No Moving Parts, No Rotors, No Pistons ) ================== Class: Scout Frigate ( light armor ) ( Mass Effect - Normandy SR2 style appearance and layout ) Design: Space-plane with wing/nacelle, forward flight deck, and aft hangar bays. Purpose: Survey & Exploration Length: 190 m Mass: 6,500,000 kg (empty) Blocks: 7700 aprox. Crew Cabins: 6 ================== Hull Layout / Sections 1. Bridge & CIC 2. Cargo Deck & Jump Drives 3. Crew Quarters & Galley 4. Engineering & Medical Bay 5. Launch Bay & Garage Bay 6. Main Hangar ( Shuttle Bay ) ================== ( No Pistons & No Rotors, minimal use of conveyer blocks ) - Jump Drives x6 ( range 2,000 km aprox. ) - Assembler x1 --- ( engineering deck ) - Refineries x2 --- ( cargo deck ) - Furnaces x2 - Medical Rooms x2 - Cryo Pods x10 - O2 Generators x8 - Oxygen Farms x2 - Solar Panels x20 - Large Cargo Containers x2 - Repair Projector ( off by default ) - Landing Gear ( static, but includes wheels and loading ramp ) - Gatling Turrets x4 - Forward Rocket Launchers x2 ================== Scripts: if scripts are turned off, turn on and "Start" the door timer block ( near engineering ) - Whips Airlocks & Doors, Whips Artificial Horizon, LCD2 Panels, Floorplan Panels ================== ~ Transport Capabilities: bays, hangars, and decks are meant to transport a medium ground vehicle, x2 medium ( combat or mining ) craft, a large transport ( mining or combat ) shuttle type craft, and extra space along the bays and hangars for any number of remote drones or small personal craft. There is also a docking port along the top ( merge block and connector ) where a shuttle or smaller large ship could be kept. And a large open cargo deck in the mid section. An additional ground or flight vehicle can be attached to the under carriag area exterior to the garage and below the main hangar deck. ================== The typical ship load-out: ~ Garage: APC Rover ( ground vehicle ) ~ Aft Under-Carrage: Mining Craft ( ground or hover ) ~ Launch Bays: x2 Combat Craft & x2 hover bikes ~ Hangar Bay: Transport / Cargo Shuttle & x2 hover bikes ~ Dorsal Dock: Corvette Scout Ship or Salvage Cutter ( large block craft ) ~ Cargo Bay: cargo & survey drones or multiple hover bikes ================== Design Note: I did have to add several Small Hydrogen and Large Atmospheric Thrusters ( for extra planetary lifting capacity ) in order to allow this ship to land and take off from an Earth like planet, without the atmo thrusters the vessel can still land and take off from any moons without issue. The use of conveyer junctions was kept to a minimum. A fair amount of interior decorative blocks could also be removed to open up space and lower mass/weight if a more sparse look was desired. ================== ~ Designed as a team-based survival exploration ship or as a background prop, feel free to use or modify as needed for any videos or demos.

~ Update 19Y01M08 - added several more thrusters and more signage for better handling and aestheitcs, and added a side-vew cut away to the image gallery. Rebalanced the thrusters for better atmospheric capabilities.
