CV Eris V6 - upgraded version of prefab CORE Patron V/Polaris. UL25/T4

This is an old design that I keep coming back to. I first saw it as one of the prefabs in the game, now called the CORE Patron V. I started using it, and upgrading it, many versions ago. Somewhere around Alpha 10 I discovered the original designer's updated version in the Steam workshop and grabbed that version, then proceeded to gut it and rebuild it to add a shield. This is an Alpha 12 iteration of that design, now with a T4 CPU, much higher thrust and many more weapons.

I configured this ship to be fully self contained for long journeys, and to be capable of fighting in space or on a planet. I attack planetary bases often so all of the turrets but one are capable of firing on a planet.

Features:

• Unlock Level 25
  
• Enough thrust to handle 5G planets, and to go from 0 to 60m/s quickly during a vertical ascent from a 5G planet
  
• Most hull blocks are hardened steel
  
• Multiple properly ventilated airtight compartments
  
• 15 grow plots
  
• Ammo 64 kSU
  
• 2 Cargo 320 kSU
  
• 6 old style Cargo Boxes, two in HV bay, two on SV pad, two in center deck
  
• 2 fridges and 2 food processors
  
• 4 passenger seats
  
• 6 pulse lasers
  
• 18 turrets:
  
  • 1 artillery
    
  • 9 cannon
    
  • 8 sentry gun
• Full set of medical equipment, including a shower
  
• 2 advanced constructors
  
• Internal HV bay, SV pad on top
  
• T2 shield
  
• T2 repair bay on SV pad
  
• Armor locker and repair station
  
• T4 CPU
  
• Wireless
  
• Detector

This is my sixth version, fully updated for A12.

• Converted almost all the cargo boxes to cargo containers.
  
• Removed a few deco capacitors which only have 50 hit points.
  
• Some cosmetic updates to the interior.

Update 2020/07/21:

• Some cosmetic changes to the outside, cleaning up the engine nacelles for the fore and aft XL thrusters. Also cleaned up the paintjob a little, there was a missed spot and some inconsitency between the sides.
  
• Cleaned up the trailing edge of the wing and covered over the old mount points for the original thrusters.
  
• That change allowed me to move four of the generators out to the wings and make the engineering spaces a bit more livable.
  
• Extended the SV deck to eliminate a radiation hotspot from the warp drive. Removed the last two deco capacitors in the process.
  
• Added four old style cargo boxes because Eleon still hasn't fixed the container system, and you can clog big containers up with non-stackable small items. There are now two on the center deck, two on the SV deck, and two on the HV deck.
