Raven VFW - Small and agile warp-capable fighter

Description
Size class 1, unlock level 12 and CPU tier 3.
(More stats in images)



The Raven VFW is a is a small and agile warp-capable fighter. It's a fighter version of my Raven VSF shuttle, mixed with one of my old Mantis fighters. It's pretty well armed for its size and offers more protection that my scout fighters.

You'll be protected by a hull shield, partly hardened steel outer shell and an armoured cockpit. The Raven VFW is armed with four gattling guns and four rocket launchers. It's also equipped with an armour locker, cargo space, fridge and O2 tanks for survival.

This small vessel is size class one, unlock level 12 and CPU tier three. It works really well with my Orca Mk3 Battle Carrier capital ship, Orca R9 Capital Ship or any of my Anaxyrus capital ships, apart from the MX variant.


Lights and HUD

There are flashing lights that I like, but can be switched off if that's not your kind of thing. Spotlights help to light stuff up at night. It also has a custom HUD.

Custom shortcuts, signals and circuits

I’ve set up a few custom shortcuts and signals for the convenience of switching various things on and off and to save energy/fuel.

Thrusters have custom modes set up to save fuel. These need to be selected by switching the following custom signals on and off in the main control panel:

HoverMode - Deactivates/activates all thrusters apart from bottom thrusters. To hover in atmosphere.
CruiseSpace - Deactivates/activates all thrusters apart from rear thrusters. To cruise while in space.
CruiseAtmos - Deactivates/activates all thrusters apart from rear and bottom thrusters. To cruise while in atmosphere.
AllThrustOff - Turns all thrusters and RCSs on/off.

Other custom signals and shortcuts are:

WhiteFlashLights - Turns external white flashing lights on/off
