SV Warp Spike - Armed, shielded explorer, UL12/T3

Description
This is what happens when you spend too much time taking your SV into tunnels. You make it long and skinny, with no annoying protuberances like wings and fins. Ends up looking like something you'd kill a vampire with.

Now updated to convert the old style cargo boxes into one big ammo container (2250 SU).

Features:
6 gatlings
Warp capable
Shield
T3 CPU
Constructor
Armor locker
Detector
Wireless
O2 Station
Fridge
2250 SU total storage
Enough thrust to handle a 5G planet
Stops almost as fast as it starts

Now that I've played it in survial for a bit, things I don't like about this design:

- the yaw rate is slow, it needs 4 more RCS (I may update this design later)
- when it's my interim ship before I can build a CV, I need more cargo capacity

New version (Warp Spike II) with almost four times the cargo capacity is here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2170575024

Once I build a CV, I take this SV apart and feed it back into the factory, and build a smaller, shorter version without the warp drive. Spike is here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2166430138
