A massive thank you to the Egosoft X4 modding discord community that helped make this ship possible, you guys are the real MVPs! Thanks to Luca for helping with the nerf to acceleration! Thanks to the VRO discord community for advice and balancing the ship for VRO.

"Following its significant success in the Terran Conflict era, the iconic shape and tail of the Split Tiger had gained a fearsome reputation among members of the community of planets. During the great Jump-gate shutdown, Family Zyarth's ship designers were eager to reforge this popular design into an intimidating battleship class vessel, ready to decimate any who opposed them when – or if – the Jump-gates realigned.

However, similarly to the discontinued Python, the Tiger was never put into standard issue use, due to excessive costs involved in strengthening the integrity of the tail structure, which had become
fragile when constructed at a larger scale, therefore never seeing mass production. Some finished models of the Tiger were still built, and can still occasionally be seen patrolling Zyarth / Curb territory - mostly to flex Zyarth's military might and the Tiger’s glorious history, rather than to see combat action. "

• 6x L Engines
  
• 1x Gharial Internal Shield Generator
  
• 1x XL Shield Generator
  
• 16x L Turrets
  
• 12x M Turrets
  
• 1x M Landing Pad (3x M Internal Storage)
  
• 2x S Landing Pads (10x S Internal Storage)

This version of the Tiger is balanced for VRO.
The basic overview of the Tiger balance for VRO is that it is similar to a Gharial, except it trades the vast majority of its Medium turrets, for more Large ones. This also comes with a slight reduction in speed and manoeuvrability. This was my first attempt at balancing a ship for VRO, let me know what you think about the balance, and thanks for your patience!

AI Support has been added for the Zyarth Patriarchy and Curbs main patrol carriers to add a Tiger to their wing.
Additionally, Patrol ships should be created dynamically for both Zyarth and Curbs in your game

Currently no known issues.

I'm happy to answer any questions you have about the ship in the comments section.
Really happy with how this ship turned out, I hope you enjoy it, if it's to your taste. :-) <3
