Description: When Noah asked to make a heavy gunship variant of the classic Y-wing, Koensayr's engineers were ecstatic. He got the original design in days and all he said, was go for it. So after weeks of trials and making sure everything was in check, the final go ahead was given. When it was finally showed to him, Noah was in awe of its design. Dual nose mounted rapid fire Dak-6 Gatling Lasers proved to be great in ship to ship combat. Six dual laser cannons provided ample protection from interceptors and the molecular shielding didn't hurt either. The original idea of proton bombs were scrapped in favor of a bomblet generator, which provides nearly unlimited bombs, but still needs to cool down and recharge. A 0.75 military class hyperdrive was, acquired from a friend of Noah's in the ODF Navy and added into the design to make it faster in hyperspace than average. All in all, it is a pretty well developed ship. Due to the highly unique nature and cutting edge tech, it requires frequent fine tuning and repairs to function properly. Even though having cutting edge tech, the Hawk is still considered to be a very slow gunship compared to others on the market. Anti-missile counter measures that consist of chaff and flare launchers help keep it protected from missiles.
Development Thread: none

[SIZE=12pt]-Take some time over the development of this ship. If it’s personal, it should be a labour of love and you should find some people to really enjoy roleplaying it out![/SIZE]

This is coming straight out of the buyers pocket.

-Removal of molecular shielding
Removed and replaced with heavy



Raziel said:
-Hyperdrive rating changed to 1.0
Currently Working on this



Raziel said:
-Reduction from 10 lasers (4x2 + 2) to 6
I've seen other ships pass with just as much weapons as this, also should removing the bomblet generator allow me to keep the guns?



Raziel said:
-A description of countermeasures
Done



Raziel said:
-Removal of bomblet launcher
Done



Raziel said:
-Change in speed and manoeuvrability to 6 (As it is described as slow for its class)
May I make it 5.5?



Raziel said:
-Clarification of whether 2 missile tubes are for bomblets or separate
Removal of generator solves that

Removed three of them. My reasoning is because its basically a star wars B-24, meant for long range bombing missions so the crew is going to need somewhere to rest while they are on their way.
 
Looking at the dimensions, if you keep it speed and manoeuvrability 6 then you can keep the lasers.

I still don't understand why an individual with hundreds of millions of credits would blow it on one ship rather than settle down and enjoy himself, but it's not going to stop this sub from getting through! :)

Changed speed and manueverability to 6. I'm working on getting a 0.5 or a 0.75 class hyperdrive and once I get it, I'll tag you.
