28.7k natemomog  4.3 years ago

In 2028,the Erandian government issued a request for a Small corvette to replace the aging Jahwati IV class patrol boats.

Designed as a joint venture by Horizon fleet systems and Royal Arms Maritime, and built by the San Silba shipyards, Jahwati Drive yards and the Retmansburg Engineering corporation, the Eremita class light corvette was built in great numbers. An extremely efficient design, it is powered by an experimental system featuring multiple large Lithium-ion Batteries, allowing it to reach extremely high speeds. However,this also means that the Eremita class cannot go more than 300 kilometers without needing to recharge.

The Eremita class Corvette Excels at its role of rescuing refugees fleeing War-torn Dracilia and Anti-piracy operations in the Erandian Gulf, it has a crew standard complement of only 39 sailors. Costing only 115 Million ER, it is up for sale to any Erandian Ally.


A reasonably well-armed ship for it's size, the Eremita class corvette has numerous weapons. These weapons include:
-Palleta Dynamics MK2 dual-purpose high angle Cannon
-10 VLS launch tubes containing AGM-25 Aethersprite missiles
-3 hidden torpedo launchers
-4 large missile tubes containing Block 3 AA missiles
-2 missile tubes, containing AGM-12 Pencil ASuW missiles
-A helipad capable of handling a H-11 Kingfisher helicopter

Controls:
Throttle for forward movement
Brake to.... well, brake and reverse
Yaw to steer
AG1 for opening the launch tubes.(MUST OPEN LAUNCH TUBES BEFORE LAUNCHING AETHERSPRITE OR PENCIL MISSILES, OR ELSE KABOOM)
AG2 to open sliding doors of the hidden torpedo bay(Must also open before torpedo launch or else kaboom)
AG3 to open those cute little doors at the side

Creator's note:
I got inspired to build this corvette after seeing the Carbonia class corvette built by User @Typhoon_ .However, i designed the Eremita with a more Conventional, Arleigh-burke class destroyer style.As a result, i wanted to create my most detailed ship yet.I chose a corvette sized ship due to its small size not messing with my potatophone, allowing me to make better detailing. Unfortunately, i still crashed my phone multiple times building this. Constructive criticism and tips are welcome. Thank you for enjoying my build!
