"Trojan Horse" (Outdated)

Decided to start a new project, building small carrier for raiders to operate from.

The ground rules....

1x Refinery
1x Arc Furnace
1x Assembler
4-6x Large Cargo Containers
1x Large Reactor
6x Fighter (its a raiding ship not a carrier)
2x Support Craft (boarding and cargo retrieval)
no more than 2-3 Drones (2 utility, one recon)

Plus I'm going for a ship that could pass for a civilian transport. Raiders need to be able to sneak up on their prey and get the drop on them (if they see you coming the will run and can get away). Most Raiding vessels are not equipped (thought there are some exceptions) for a full scale battles. Most Raiding vessels carry more firepower than their civilian counterparts but less than a full blown warship. Its helpful to remember most pirate and raiding ship through out history were converted merchant vessels that were rearmed with more fire power. I'm using pirate ship and commerce raiders (see 1st & 2nd World Wars for details) as my inspiration.

My overall goal is to make the ship no bigger than a Standard Redship. But have it look as nonthreatening as possible so it can sneak up and do its thing.

I proudly present the results of my latest project, the "Trojan Horse".
