APF Avador Class Escort Carrier Redux

Description
A rework of one of my older ships.

"Designed more as a mix of a patrol and purpose combat vessel the Avador class escort carriers would prove to be a reliable design for APF forces. Carrying up to six Bulldog Strike Fighters, 7 Gatling turrets for point defense and 6 Assault turrets for ship to ship the Avador could hold its own against other small capital ships. Its weak armor made it unsuitable for engagements with larger enemies on its own except for with its fighter compliment. However this light armor helped make the Avador mobile as well as being planetary capable furthering its utility and defensive options. One of these carriers would play a decisive role in a raid on an RBN Shipyard shortly after war broke out helping to buy the APF time to prepare their defenses."

The only thing I don't like about this ship, and I have tested it in combat yet so I might be wrong, but it's just light armor and no armored conveyors. Besides that I love the design and style. It's great for a mid game ship that can be used as an impromptu mobile base.

This is my first try at playing on a public server. I started about 20,000 from the earthlike planet and have stayed away from planets so as to not get pirated. When I log I stay away from all stellar bodies in the hopes it will keep me safe. It has worked so far.

I love the look of the ship but I took everything out and added it back in such a way that does not affect the core ship looks. I also left enough hydro to make a planet landing possible. I am not sure what the lift capacity is though. I added the drill and the jump module. The ship is very compact and suitable for at least a single player. It has enough native firepower to warn off all but the most determined pirates.

It is a solid little ship and looks great.

you werent joking about gutting it lol, quite interesting to see the inside so thoroughly redone for survival while the hull remains *mostly* the same

I am going to have to figure out a way to extend the jump range. Either by refitting it again or just adding a detachable jump module.
