Description:

The Orca is a compact versatile combat vessel designed for upgrades. With armored wings, reinforcement around critical components, and compartmentalized systems, it’s built to withstand catastrophic cascade explosions.

This ship took a couple months to design, refine, balance, and optimize. As my current ship in play, I’ve used it a lot, and been able to fix pain points. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• Enhanced Protection: Armored wings and hull, along with recessed bridge provide a fortified protection. Even your 12 cannons are safer recessed within protective shroud; warding against anything but direct fire.
• Adaptable for Atmospheric Combat: Outfit the Orca with up to 20 downward firing turrets, and an additional 12 turrets on the wings. It also features a dedicated "Bombardment Bridge" allowing unparalleled clarity and perspective on planetary POI targets.
• Advanced Upgrades: The ship can be upgraded with the maximum allotment of Banks and Rechargers, and up to 4 Advanced Power Generators. Apart from using Arrays, the Orca can pack all of the upgrades in a surprisingly small vessel for its feature-class. All components are accessible.
• Luxury Accommodations: Bring along a small vessel or two with its easy-access open-air landing pad, and space for a Repair Bay. Easy access to a teleporter, deconstruction & production facilities, and ample cargo space. As you brave the darkest reaches of space, you can relax in the finest accommodations, complete with a bedroom suite, bathroom, and kitchen. A full medical facility, and dedicated medical cabinet will be there in your time of need.
• Endurance: On a full tank, the Orca boasts an impressive nearly 12-day ‘Low Power Mode.’ If you find yourself on a high-gravity planet, you’ll have a lifting power of 1085 mega-newtons, and can feasibly exit the atmosphere of 4G planet under load. At 8.5 kt, the Orca has a cargo capacity of 2.7 Million Liters.

The landing pad was designed to fit medium sized SVs, such as the Deva or Hauler (as pictured above).
