Anubis Stealth Ship - The Expanse ( Updated )

Description
This is a replica of the Stealth ships seen in the TV Series 'The Expanse', built to the same scale roughly as existing replicas- namely the various 'Rocinante' variants.

NB: Airlock is located on the Starboard side, just above the forward Gatling turret ( you can just about see it in the first picture ).

Updated 31/05/2018:

- added more gyroscopes for improved handling
- hollowed out some areas to reduce weight, added a new feature ( auto-repair welders for the Rocket Launchers )
- added a few extra control options to the Hotbar in the Pilot seat


Specification:

Length: 187.5m
Mass: 6.7 million Kg
12,040 Blocks

Features:

Survival Ready - NO MODS
Full conveyor system
2 Jump Drives
1 Large Reactor
Batteries
Refineries
Aseemblers
Hydrogren & Oxygen systems
Cryo pods
Medical Bay
Ore Detector
Everything you need for a good survival experience pretty much.

Weapons:

As per the 'real thing', this has 4 Gatling Turrets for Point Defence. Unlike the real thing there is no good way to create interior Torpedo Bays that deploy and launch Torpedoes, so I've chosen to go with a couple of Missile Turrets- not quite the same but it'll have to do with a Vanilla build like this. In addition, the Rail Gun is now 6 Rocket Launchers in the mouth of the ship.

If you were to make a modified version of this then you could choose from various weapons such as guided missiles and Torpedoes, actual Rail Guns and better Gatling Turrets; by all means, go nuts, but don't forget to credit me for the original design.

Summary:

I built this ship after seeing Captain Jack doing a review of the Rocinante / M.C.R.N Tachi- naturally the next thing we'd all want to see is a recreation of the Rocinante vs Stealthship battle so I built the Stealth ship as best I could; this is not a pretty ship, it is heavily asymmetrical and has many shapes/angles that simply can't be reproduced in Space Engineers so this is the best I could do.

I hope you like it- if you do, Like, Share, Subscribe, Follow and all that jazz, cheers.

This ship class finally has a name: the Amun-Ra-class Stealth Frigate.

@DoctorWhoiverse- Starboard side, just above the gatling turret- you can just about see the airlock door in the 1st photo.

how do I get inside?

sure it is but i dont get the point in using glass for it just a more attractive skybox makes this thing almost invisible

@RE4L54UERKR4U7 This is already a form of visual cloaking, as ships like these usually operate in the outer solar system where light isn't as strong, and it's hard to tell the ship from the darkness of space, especially in areas 'where light isn't as strong'.

@void_man the ship in the series doesnt visually cloak itself so using glass wouldnt be the right decision

@CaptainJack- Senpai has noticed me, my work here is done.

@RE4L54UERKR4U7- It might use a few more gyros, but from the show it seems like the ship really isn't very fast at turning- the Rocinante on the workshop turns way too fast conversely so that one needs it's gyros turned down to 50% for a more realistic flight experience.

@Centurian128- Indeed there are mods for 'proper' guided torpedoes but alas, this is vanilla only & I don't do scripts- I'll leave modding to the community.

@void_main- Glass does work quite well for stealth, but it's also glass- a flying green house isn't much good and trying to build a layer of glass over an inner core is just a nightmare given all the angles on this ship. That said, the armour is way thicker on what I've created here ( not intentionally, it's just an issue with the exterior shape vs trying to build a usable interior space ) so it might turn out to be rather OP in a dog fight...

You might want to try glass as stealth tech, which was a hit on the workshop.
