Notes: I tried to make it as easy as possible to get from the interior to the prefab cockpit and back from the prefab cockpit to the interior. This was done with an automatic drone hatch located directly behind the cockpit.

This build is using a force field canopy but not over the cockpit. Instead it is using it to add additional hit points to the front underside of the build. You can see this on the build but tends to look mostly hidden.

If you want to find the 2 2x3 generators, I installed access doors on the sides of the build in between outer wing parts. If you upgrade to fusion reactor, you may want to remove those generators to free up additional CPU.

The ship does use mostly plasma thrusters stock. The two strafing thrusters near the front are small ion thrusters mainly as decoys and do not provide much performance.
