Hanipu-class aerial carrier (OLD)

1,470 HariTheSnakk  3.2 years ago

UPDATE: Currently working on an improved version of this complete with countermeasures and missiles.

A class of stealthy, nuclear-powered, aircraft-carrying flying cruisers capable of staying in the air for 31 days and able to carry a complement of 24 fighters and 10 transports capable of carrying personnel, supplies and troops to and from the cruiser. Its elevator functions as both a landing spot and a catapult system using EMALS.
Used by the IUC (International Union Command) for rapid deployment of air and ground supremacy into war zones anywhere on Earth.

Named after an alternate Anubis from the Earth that the IUC came from.

(Part of a worldbuilding project on another site.)

Notes:
• Pitch and Yaw for human control.
• VTOL slider to manually activate vertical takeoff and landing engine.
• Unarmed but you may place weapons on it for an ad-hoc airborne fortress battle.
• Recommended landing and takeoff spots are large bodies of water.
• Crude stabilization technique means it will approximately stay between 5,015-4990 meters at an approximate speed of 330+ km/h. Bobbing occasionally and risking your aircraft sliding off. Recommend attaching a very powerful magnetic landing mechanism to your aircraft.
• Spawn in the air between 4,500 to 5,000 meter for AI use.
• May sometimes stabilize when you land on top of it, depending on the height, but always exercise caution when landing on top of it.
• I forgot to to re-edit the health in XML to "Infinity". I recommend XML editing the craft before use.
• Have fun, I hope.
