PFS - CC - Corax Cruiser

Update 10/22/14 - As the first of my ships to impliment several new design features, the Corax represented a new generation for my fleet. As such, I have finally given it a long overdue update to the newer paint scheme and modded consoles to bring its aesthetics up to date with the newer ships.

Update 5/19/14 - Added a few engines to increase Acceleration from 1.93 to 2.78 m/s^2. 6 small reactors were also added as emergency power

Mass: 7.746mil kg Acceleration: 2.78 m/s^2 Weapons: 13 Gatling Guns, 19 Missile Launchers, 16 Anti-Missile System, 12 rocket launchers Ammunition: 8 large containers

The Corax was a difficult ship to class, as it borders on being a battlecruiser. However, due to its size and weight, it was eventually decided that the Corax would be designated as a Cruiser. The Corax therefore represents a new, economical trend for Phoenix Shipyards, by placing the firepower of a battlecruiser into a much more convenient package, while still retaining a comfortable interior. As a next generation cruiser, the Corax also boasts a state-of-the-art interior, and is host to new experimental AMS technology. 8 turrets on either side are charged with protecting the Corax's ammunition supply from incoming fire, allowing it to forgo some heavy armor in favor of added manueverability.
