ES Helsinki – Siege Frigate by EuroSpace
As EuroSpace’s first among Railgun-designs the ES Helsinki is a siege frigate meant to attack enemy stations from a safe distance just outside the reach of conventional HE missiles. Being little more than a Railgun with thrusters, the Helsinki can mostly stay out of harms way in ship vs ship combat too, but is most effective with an escort or as an escort of a larger combat vessel.
Speed: ~80m/s
Crew: 42
Price: ~317.000$
Despite playing this game for years, I haven’t used Railguns that much yet, so feedback is welcome. 🙂

– Update 26/11/22: Reduced crew number to 42. Now Railgun-suppliers won’t switch sides, since they’re only supplying every second room, which only has access from one side of the ship. Added some armor in the back, to prevent circling missiles from instantly blowing out the back of the craft.
[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]
