ES Ion Bat Mk III -MIC Frigate by EuroSpace
Yet again a revision of EuroSpace’s frigate from the MIC class. MIC stands for "Modular Ion Chamber" and is a series of ships designed to act as a single ion chamber of changable size depending on need and budget. Along with better shield placement and better point defense, the Mk III, like its predecesor, is equipped with 4 Ion Beams and capable of taking in beams of equal strength that feed into the main outlet. It can either act as a lone Ion Kite, a front line beam combinator against other ships of its size (and above), or an ion source for a larger combinator vessel in front of it.
Speed: ~94m/s
Crew: 40
Price: ~418.000$
Here is the other ship from the screenshots, that this ship can use as a beam source for combination – The ES Zyklop:

[Attention: The game currently has a missing feature where crew assignments are not copied along with loading the crew roles. That leads to broken ships. To work around, paste this ship in creative (do NOT create a grid first), then look at the assignments and memorize/take a screenshot. Then try to replicate assignments in career for a correctly working ship]
