PRISM Aerospace International
The Prism Aerospace International corporation was a ship-builder that specialized in hull designs working around trade-restricted components and could freely be sold to any client. Not using the latest armor or engine technologies could have be seen as a deal-breaker but the clever use of angled armor designs to minimize weight while maximizing protection kept their ships competitive in the modern battle-space.
While the company has been absorbed into the Alliance’s military-industrial complex, it is still common to find neighboring systems fully equipped with PAI hardware, as well as minor shipyards producing unlicensed copies of their designs.
Their weapon catalog has been kept as a separate mod to allow other faction mods to use those weapons without having to load PRISM ships too.
Currently adds:
The Aryabhata-class light trochship, a tiny scout ship,
The Euler-class light torchship, a well armored albeit small escort hull,
The Noether-class medium torchship, a versatile ship with plenty of turrets mount options and internal space,
The Thales-class heavy torchship, a heavier and well armored broadsiding hull with limited defensive slots,
The Descartes-class heavy torchship, a menacing heavy hull that can take out even bigger targets with its frontal weapon layout.
The Pythagoras-class super-heavy torchship, a lumbering capital ship able to go toe-to-toe with the iconic Solomon-class battleship when properly maneuvered.
The design goal is to add ships that are very sturdy when well maneuvered, but also a smidgen less powerful and more vulnerable to flanking than their ANS counterparts. Their thinner armor is angled, which lead to a heightened vulnerability from the front/back and top/bottom sides but a significantly superior protection from the sides. Additionally those ships are not agile when it comes to dodging, but they have good turn rates to make the most out of their few mounts and limited armor.
