The Vixen Experimental Attack Frigate is a fast, lightly armoured but heavily armed frigate designed to cripple larger ships with overwhelming firepower. The Vixen's main weapon is a rapid fire gravity accelerator that fires high explosive, shield piercing rounds at a rate of 240 RPM (Creative Mode, survival welding speed determines survival RoF). This hail of fire is capable of breaking through any point defence if given enough time and can drill through armour at an alarming rate. The mass of projectiles can also effectively screen other ships from a targets point defence, making the Vixen ideal as fire support for a fleet.

Utilising hybrid Ion/Hydrogen propulsion, the ship itself is quick and nimble, and has four Jumpdrives to facilitate swift relocation. This agility comes at the cost of armour, and the Vixen is ill suited to extended engagements in CQB. It is, however, more than capable of finishing off targets crippled by it's Vanquisher cannon using it's ten forward orientated Missile turrets. Two heavy and three light gatling turrets provide solid defence vs small ships.

See main control station for VAC instructions and hotkeys.
Tips:
A improved camera overlay is highly recommended. Here is the Hyperion Systems one: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=689480662
The ideal engagement range for this ship is 1 – 1.5Km
The Vanquisher's projectiles converge on the crosshair, or the centre of the screen if using the default overlay, at about 1.2km
Lock Gyroscopes to eliminate “recoil”
Lead the target, you are much more likely to hit with the Vanquisher than a regular grav gun, but this is largely due to the volume of fire, you still need to account for the 100m/s max speed.
Alternatively, charge straight toward your target at about 75m/s and open fire with the VAC at about 1500m, with luck, the enemy turrets will be completely occupied with the projectiles, allowing you to bombard the target with missiles from your turrets at 600-800m and move off before the target can return fire.
To maintain a decent simulation speed, it is recommended that you change your worlds Trash Removal settings to remove powered grids of less than 20 block that are more than 2000m away from player.


The ship in the GIF is the Red Team variant of JD Horx's Nestorius GD1. You can find the original here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1202094540

This is a concept build that while functional in survival, is difficult to build and the VAC is very expensive to fire for any duration of time. If you like the hull, I would recommend cutting out the VAC assembly and gravity generators and replacing it with 6 rocket launcher. The Rotor turrets can easily be replaced with gatling turrets and the small console in the CIC can be removed. This will leave Auto-Door and Auto-LCD Scripts intact as they are on the main grid.

I thought I'd invented a new PMW, but it turns out this has been done before. :D Engineer Malacanth first produced a rotary gatling released gravity accelerator cannon last year. You can find it here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1800944917

I try to make all my ships functional in survival, if you use my ships and find a bug/problem, let me know.
