Original Starship Design Thread

[knowles2]

Well sorry the site seem to be back up, it was gone last to some weird page but it seem to be working now and back to normal

[immhotep]

Sorry for doubting you RJB, didnt mean any offense by it, i hope you do continue posting here, have you checked out the fleets atall?

i pointed them out to him, i tried to recruit him to do modeling for us lol

No offense taken and I'll be sticking around.

Yeah I have looked at the fleet and let a few members use some of my ships in it but right now I'm more working on a "what I feel like at the time" system of modeling. Work has just been keeping me over busy so it's hard to start any new projects.

Here is yet another sub-par ship by me, my experiments with smooth edges are going slowly.


Thoughts?

[ManiacMike]

hmmm

looks like a modified alkesh.

more views of the ship might help too. Looks good so far.

[titan_hq]

Name: F315 "Cobra"
Type: Stargate compatible fighter (it can travel through a stargate)

Technology base: Tau'ri / Asgaurd

Dimensions-
Length: 6.25m
Width: 2.6m Wings folded / 5.8m wings extended
Height: 1.9m
Crew: 1
Decks: 1

Power-
Propulsion: 1 rocket motor, 1 omni-directional anti-gravity generator.
Powerplant: 1 mk1 naqauda reactor.

Offensive systems-
4 centraly mounted hard-points, 2 wingtip hardpoints

Defensive systems-
light armor plating

Other systems-
Folding wings

=======================================
The F-315 was originally developed for the atlantis expedition but has found widespread use in other area. Due to its small size, more can be carried abored a ship than F302s, and, uniquely among tau'ri fighters, it can travel through a stargate.

The F-315 is seeing widespread use as a tactical reconisinse aircraft, and as a spotter aircraft, being deployed to find/contact missing teams and engage targets, and generally clear the way for a rescue team. Its VTOL abilitys and anti-grav generator means that it can be deployed in the same way as a PJ, within a complex such as atlantis or SGC without harming personnel with its rocket motor.

Can't think of any more at the moment...need to eat first

[titan_hq]

I redesigned the F-315, added fixed wings instead of folding ones, and added missle hard-points to it. Also has a different engine, maybe a small ion-based engine. may also add 20mm cannons in but that will be called F-316, not X-316.

click spoiler for pics.

What do you think???

[Daryl Froggy]

Cool Fighter(s) I can't wait to see what is next.

Here, by singular request, are more snapshots of my dagger class

i like it, cool. could you post some diffenrent shots of it?

[Aroura-Gate]

there is already a dager clase ship its a fighter and i created it. ill post the desgin in a bit

[Buba uognarf]

I haven't posted a design here in ages, i'm going to be posting a Wraith ship complete with model in the next few days

First off this is a Dagger not a Dager and secondly your fighter will never meet my, whatever its going to be, in space or in concept because this ship will never fly in the stargate 'verse.

I would have called it Kris but the name just didn't fit and I had no desire to call it the Arrowhead class because it just seemed too cheap.

[Aroura-Gate]

sorry im dislexic and i cant spell very well sorry. but why would you say that i got the idea from a WWII plane concept for the early flying wing

[turbo1889]

Let me first of all say that most of the successful engagement fought by the Tori via ships have been hit and run battles -- ship design should reflect tactics. I suggest a smaller ship then the 303 or 304 design that is built of sections which can be transported via the stargate and assembled on the other side at a Tori' base such as Atlantis, the Alpha Site, etc. The ship will be designed to opperate from that base with a minimal crew -- minor maintence and repair can be completed by the ships crew but any major problems require repair at the base. Therefore, there must be a good deal of redundency in the ships systems. I propose the following design:

Kodiak Class Light-Attack Ship:

Spoiler:

As you can plainly see the main body of the ship is made up of four tubes designed to fit through the Stargate (in short lengths of course) The two outer tubes house the hyper drive, Naquadria generators (one in each pod), sheild emitters, and cloak emitters. Both the two inner pods contain sublight drive engines in the rear portion. The left inner pod (looking down from top) containes the crew quarters and controls in the forward section. The right inner pod contains a Tori' built reverse engineering of the Atlantian Satalight beam weapon. There are two immiters, two buffers, and two naquada generators for power. Thus there is a double redundency. The cloak and sheild systems are seperated but almost identical and each can be easily do the job of the other, again a double redundency. There are two seperate sublight engines one each in the back of each of the central pods; double redundency. The weapons targeting system and navagations system are seperate yet very similar allowing each to the others job if neccessary. Hyperdrive system consists of two sections one each in the outer two pods -- when working together the ship is capable of extremely high speeds and is even faster then either the 303 or 304 class but cannot travel near as far. If one hyper-space engine is damaged the ship is capable of using the other to "limp" back to base at a much slower speed.

Crew: 5 -- Pilot/Comander, Co-Pilot/Second-in-Command, Weapons-Officer, Engineer, Navigator

Hyper-Drive: Entirely Earth built using knowledge gained from all available sources -- High Speed but limited Range

Sub-light Drive: Smaller version of 303 and 304 class sublight drive

Sheild: Asgard designed, built from earth materials -- can be converted to serve as cloak

Cloak: Reverse-engineered from ancient technology -- can serve as a sheild but not as strong as main sheild

Primary Weapon: Double Side-by-Side beam weapon reverse engineered from ancient defense satelight scematics (The Seigh Part 1). Earth version generates approximatly only 3/4 the power of ancient design (Work to Improve Design Continues at Area 51)

Secondary Weapons: 7 - rail gun turrents. Gun caliber is smaller and only preduce 1/2 the impact energy as larger versions used on 304 class ships. This was done because they are primarly defensive (Darts, Gliders, Missles) and weight must be minimized to allow manuverability and speed.

Armor: Light armor shell, thicker in critical areas. Allows sheild to be down when not in combat to conserve power but offers only minimal protection.


I believe the design as outlined could show up very soon -- entirely within present Tori' capabilities. Ship is designed for seak and destroy / hit and run missions. Target is approached while cloaked -- decloak, raise sheilds, fire one or two shots from main weapon then head for hyper-space while the weapon buffers recharge.

P.S. This is my first post and I spent most of the time on the picture please excuse the spelling and other errors.
