The Kestrel

Description
Its not a exact replica but it does resemble the Kestrel From FTL a bit.

Armaments
-Green Mini Lazer (Insane Firing speed,Decent Damage)
-2 Dual Missile turrets, 1 on top other on belly of craft

Stats
-Very maneuverable
-Extremely fast Top speed in space
-Giant Engine
-27K Cost

AI Stats
-Not the best but it does keep it from falling into the sea, most of the time, Would reccomend replacing the AI with something better than whats already there (If you can), If you do post the design and give me a link to the upload at Kerbals4@gmail.com

Summary: She is quite fast and deadly if in the right hands, AI is purly for flying the thing and has trouble using weapons to maximum effectiveness.

NOTE: The New Kestrel Will not work in space due to the replacement of Ion engines with Jet eninges.

-When shall this be out?
Answer: 2 days Tops but maybe tomorrow (4/20/17) , I have to still debug some of the AMS and ALPS Functionality along with the Pylons leading to the Nacelles.

- Reworked Engine: The Original Engine was too big and bulky and just added to the weight, A new, more efficient engine has replaced it but at the cost of maximum power, The old engine produced more than enough power, The new engine now can power everything and then some, but not as good as the old engine.
-New Anti-Missile-System (AMS for short) Some flares and a small Anti-Laser-Projectile-System
(ALPS) Now make the Kestrel less prone to being Dominated by a Wall of missiles. However they take the place of the Back 3 Engines on the main Body.
-New Jet Engines: The nacelles now hold a custom Jet engine instead of the original 20 something Ion engines, This means The engines now don't take power from the engine.
Where do I find this Machine? Just go to my profile and Look under Workshop, The New Kestrels Workshop name will be U.S.S Hornet, As a tribute to one of my Faster Than Light (FTL) Runs, Pt 3 of 3

-Fixes
-Debugged AI: I took out the PID's and just used normal Flight AI as that seems to work, would still recommend some way for it to stay above 300 FT
- Reworked Weapons: The 3 Original Weapons were dismantled and reworked to a Dual laser machine Laser gun thing and a new EMP AutoCannon on the bottom,
