Hiigaran Pulsar Mech Gunship R.E.A.R.M. - HomeWorld 2

A small ship designed to emulate the look and feel of the ships from the R.E.A.R.M. mod for the classic game HomeWorld 2.

Details:


Weight: 495,000Kg
Length: 31.5m

2 Mods- Shield Generators & Battle Cannons
Survival ready- loaded with Ice, Uranium & Ammo.
Full conveyor system
Oxygen & Hydrogen systems
Hydrogen & Ion thrusters- space only, will not work in gravity
4 Missile Turrets
2 Bofors 40mm quad-barrel turrets
Cargo storage and Connector for refuelling and rearming

Features:

Fighter Cockpit for better visability & Gunner Cockpit
Concealed thrusters- most thrusters are inside the ship, block damage is turned ON- adequate space is allowed to prevent thrusters damaging near-by blocks.
Heavy Armour for better durability.

Uses two mods:

Since Gatling guns now seem to shred through Heavy Armour like it's tin foil, I decided to add 2 Mods to the ship; firstly Shield Generators by Cython:

and 40mm Bofors from the Battle Cannon and Turrets mod pack by Rider:

You will need to subscribe to these mods and have them active in the world settings before pasting the ship into your world or trying to weld the blueprint from a projection.

There are two large Shield Generators and multiple small generators inside the Gunship that provide over 30,000 Shield Energy Points- not a huge amount, but enough to protect the ship during combat missions; it also recharges quite rapidly so multiple attacks can be made in one sorty.
The pair of 40mm Bofor quad-barrel turrets provide excellent firepower in a compact package, allowing the ship to engage multiple targets at once or lay down heavy fire on larger and more heavily armed but slower moving targets- punching way above your weight-class with the Pulsar Mech Gunship is highly encouraged- pirates or raiders will think twice about taking on this pocket battleship.

Summary:

Besides using a two mods, the Pulsar Mech Gunship now uses a Fighter Cockpit for a better flight experience and visibility, making it much more enjoyable to pilot and handle better during combat and docking operations, along with a secondary small cockpit for the Gunner if you decide to use a two-man crew- all weapons can be manually targeted or controlled by the ships AI.
