HISTORY:
After the construction of the Expeditionary Fleet, the Terran Confederation required the capability to move troops and equipment to and from the many planets throughout the Galaxy. The High Command deemed this necessary to protect the human race as it expanded across the Galaxy. Thus, the Liberator was born. The Liberator is the primary interplanetary transport ship of the Terran Confederation. Constructed by Solar Industries on Earth, the ship was built not only to project combat power down to planets but also to return troops and equipment to space for follow-on missions.

TACTICS:
The Liberator's primary role is to deploy and recover the Vanguard Heavy Armored Assault Rover to the combat zone so that ground assault troops can size key land terrain. To achieve this, the Liberator is equipped with 2x "Phoenix" Air Superiority Fighters capable of fighting in any space or atmospheric environment. The role of these fighters is to first, gain air superiority and second, to support ground forces.

When the Invasion Commander determines he has gained air superiority, he can then use the Liberators planetary bombardment system to destroy enemy defensive systems and clear the way for the follow-on ground forces as necessary. Then, when conditions on the battlefield are favorable, the Commander can either air drop (with parachutes) or land and deploy his ground troops to the designated drop zones. The Vanguard Armored Rover along with its contingent of Assault Infantry then move by land to seize their key ground objectives. Not only do the Vanguards provide heavy firepower but they are also equipped with a medical station to help treat wounded soldiers on the battlefield.

When the mission is over, all ground forces can then return to their respective Liberator Transport ships for their return to the Expeditionary Fleet in orbit around the planet.

OPERATING NOTES:
- I turned off the damage control computer in the bridge to decrease the processors workload. Please feel free to turn it back on if you guys have awesome computers.
- When using the Planetary Bombardment System make sure that you are inside a planet’s gravity field. Make sure to open the bomb bay doors before dropping your bombs. Do not move forward at a fast rate when bombing or the bombs will make contact with the rear doors or with other bombs. STAY AT A STEADY 5-15 m/s!

This has got to easily be one of the best ships on the workshop. And without dlcs, no less! Whenever i need a ship to test something (a new mod, new rover, or even a new ramp design), I always find myself defaulting to this one. I might even make a heavily modded refit and post it on the workshop, if you're ok with it.
