Here comes the First Omnium boat !

The Omnium DEF (Defence Engineering Systems) FTIMM
(Frégate de Taille Intermédiaire Multi Mission) is a Medium size
Frigate entered in service in the decades 1990's in the French navy
The D608 one registered as "La Marinière" is the first one
entered in service here are some pics

Stealth using growling, stealth materials, and sharp forms can be used
for anti sub warfare, anti surface warfare, deep strikes and surveillance
The FTIMM got a cruise speed of about 31mph (26 knots) and is heavily armed
(16 Guardians for ATA defence, 8 ATG Interceptor anti boat missile,
6 Infernos Auto guided surface torpedoes, And 16 underwater torpedoes)
A sonar for anti sub and a dinghy

*Utilisation*

Anti sub warfare

To deploy the sonar, use AG5 first to open the door, then put the trim to max up
wait a bit and the put the VTOL down, to retract it, put the VTOL back to
neutal until the sonar is up and than turn back the trim to neutral.

Deploying the dinghy

Press 6 to open the door than put VTOL to max and press AG7 to release dinghy
then disable AG8 (FTIMM control) and then control the dinghy with yaw and throttle

Use the Cannon

Press AG4 to use cannon and AG8 to disabe FTIMM control and use pitch/roll to
control cannon and use camera 3 to aim

Boat missile usage

Aim to the targets using camera 1 and 2 and fire (missiles registred as Interceptors)

Sides of missile and sea skimmers

Use AG1 to enable left missiles and AG2 for tight side missiles

Sea skimmers

Open doors using AG3 for sea skimmers doors, aim using camera 1 and 2 and fire
(Infernos are auto guided torpedoes) and to use torpedoes disable FTIMM
control and use yaw using AG7

Camera

They are a lot of cams on that boat (37) the 1st and 2nd are for aiming missiles
and the 3rd is for the cannon. The cams from 4 to 11 are left torpedoes 12 to 21 are cleavers
22 to 28 are right torpedoes 29 to 32 are left guided torpedoes 33 to 35 are right guided
torpedoes 36 is the dinghy cannon and 37 is a centred orbit view

The cockpit is a rotative camera, use VTOL+AG8 to move it

*Controls

AG1= left side missile
AG2= right side missile
AG3= Sea skimmers doors
AG4= Cannon
AG5= Sonar controls
AG6= Dinghy pod controls
AG7= Release and controls dinghy, control torpedoes
AG8= FTIMM controls

This boat was a realy long project who was started in early 2017 and cost me some motivation
(that's why it took such a time) but i'm happy that it finaly come out

Well that's all see you next for more creations !
