Heidkamp Class Destroyer (Vanilla/No DLC)

Workhorse of the Galaxismarine, the Heidkamp class destroyer is the sword of the Reich Imperium. Designed by Blohm und Voß & built in the thousands, the class was originally designed to patrol the Asteroid Belt. Following the rise of piracy near the outer planets, the Heidkamp class has seen extended production, entirely phasing out older force projection vessels. In normal circumstances, Heidkamp class vessels are deployed alone. However, Oberkommando-Sonne will rarely assign Heidkamp destroyers as escorts within larger battlegroups.

During the open revolt on Reichtum, Oberkommando-Eridanus only held 53 warships in inventory, mostly older frigates and cruisers. When summoned for reinforcements, the great fleets of Oberkommando-Sonne were slow to deploy. Although fleets have since arrived in-system, the insurrectionists were able to form major strongholds across Reichtum's uninhabited deserts, and now hold great influence across the Eridanus system. Even with their ramshackled, slapped-together equipment, the insurrection has proven to be a major nuisance to the good citizens of Reichtum.

• Heidkamp class destroyers are 100% vanilla, featuring zero mods, no DLC blocks, nor DLC skins.
  
• The Heidkamp's hangar is small, but versatile. Two dedicated docks support one Messer air-superiority fighter each, while another four can squeeze in. Alternatively, while keeping two fighters, the Heidkamp can make use of multiple small utility crafts of any type.
  
• All weapons systems are optimized for ideal targets. In other words, missiles will not be wasted on small interceptors, nor ejected pilots.
  
• The Heidkamp features seven subgrids. However, all seven are purely decorative, and can be removed if desired.
  
• The Heidkamp class is FTL-capable; max jump distance of 1,488 km (dry), 1,182 km (standard load).
  
• PCU count: 33,159
  
• Block count: 6,196

Builds used in screenshots:

• Focke-Wulf Fw-290 'Messer', by me.
  
• Focke-Wulf Fw-293 'Adler', by me.
  
• Various unreleased designs.

I can't believe I actually have to say this, but this workshop submission is not an endorsement of fascism, Nazism, nor any other extreme ideology. This submission is a look into an alternate history from my perspective, and tells part of a fictional story I threw together while half-asleep. If bad guy builds offend you, I don't care.

Under no circumstances may this blueprint be republished outside of the Steam Workshop (e.g. to Mod.io for Xbox use).
If this blueprint is reupload, a link back to this page, adjacent to my name, must be listed in the Workshop description!
