Biruki-Class Multirole Frigate
I finally did it. I built a ship to 1:1 size scale and almost 2:1 weight scale (1.2:1 dimension scale) . My most complex, detailed and function-filled build. I took me three days to build. A day for the hull, a day for the weapons and details and a day for troubleshooting and finer details. I’ll be honest, I could add so much more. Soooooo much more. But it’s never good to spend too long on a single design.

[Hopefully, I haven’t missed anything out]
So if something explodes, I’m not yet sure what it is but it doesn’t seem to affect performance. Of course, I could add a lot more in the way to detail but as I said earlier, I’m happy with it as it is. And I don’t think my computer would thank me for making it more complex. I am glad it’s weight is pretty much 1:1 with the concept design I had, prior to construction. Enjoy!
