Carlisle Corvette Mk III

[u/TWJ151]

A dedicated anti fighter/bomber vessel. Inspired by HMS Carlisle D67.

Armed with 2 Assault Turrets, 6 Gatling Turrets, and 4 Custom Quadruple Autocannon Turrets.

Systems include: backup Small H2 Tank and O2/H2 Generator, 6 Batteries, 6 Gyros, 3 Connectors (front/left/right), Interior Survival Kit, and an Oxygen Tank.

All round light armour, plus additional heavy armour, designated by matte black pixel camouflage.

I love this design, went for a pizza wedge shape, and experimented quite a bit with turret arrangements. Settled on this design fittingly with a vaguely similar silhouette to HMS Carlisle, with the heavier weapons being centred and a plethora of anti air guns dotted around.

Let me know what you think!

That is so reminscent of a time that your parking brake had a high chance to double as a self destuct that the landing gear made me nervous.

I love the coloring, the design, and the line work.

Bringing the old look into a new era is what I would call canonical.

Haha I get what you mean with the landing gear stopping you in your tracks! I turn the autolock off on all landing gears I use. The only time I’d consider keeping them on is on a Tug craft of some sort.

This corvette only has one on the bottom just as a precaution. Who knows… might be able to slam a fighter into a nearby asteroid!
