Description
Knightmare Industries, seeking a new design to supplement the Stridsyxa Class with more traditional weaponry, commissioned Project Octave to produce a new line of vessels to complement the rest of the fleet. The KMI Octavia was the first result of the rapidly progressing program. It carries an arsenal on par with the Stridsyxa, save for the latter's more experimental weaponry, but boasts a better propulsion system for increased maneuverability. The Octavia has a more robust production plant for longer deployments and is expected to be seen commonly in the outer reaches.

Now, who wants some details?

The mass is about 7,300 Tons dry. It use 4 large ion and 4 large hydrogen thrusters as its main propulsion, with 2 jump drives for long range travel. There are 10 Gatling Turrets and 8 Missile Turrets for ship to ship combat, with 6 rocket launchers at the front. At the rear are 8 Interior Turrets to protect against smaller craft and infiltrators. There are four main control points throughout the ship, including a well protect CIC, as well as a remote control and several antennas.

The hull is made of heavy armor and has welders for the main turrets to keep them in action. The cargo space is somewhat limited, with only small cargo containers available, and there are 2 refineries and 6 assemblers to produce more parts. It has redundant O2 generators and Oxygen Tanks, 2 airlocks, a medical room, and 5 cryo tubes. It has 7 program blocks and 8 timer blocks for your timer block needs. The ship is powered by a single large reactor with 12 small reactors and enough batteries to run off of battery power alone, even during heavy maneuvers.

The Octavia is vanilla, survival ready, and built in the style of Expanse ships.

Author's Notes:
Some of you may have noticed the resemblence with the Donnager from The Expanse. I'm definitely a fan of MCRN ship design and I drew upon the Donnager for a number of design choices with the Octavia. This was a fun project, and the desire to build this ship was inspired by Venom415's RCSP Phoenix. If you haven't checked that out, you really should. You're in for a treat.
