Description
Made for competition.

As you can see, I can't just stop making more ships of "Hornet" series... and someone asked to add jump drive for Hornet Shuttle, so... :P

Competition requirements:
- 621 tons;
- Oxygen tank, oxygen generator, hydrogen tank, antenna, assempler, cryochamber, medbay and jump drive;
- Hybrid thrusters: can fly on Earthlike planet only with atmo thrusters, can hover on moon only with ion thrusters;
- 2 gatling turrets, 5 interior turrets;
- Airtight interior;
- Inner and outer lights;
- Everything conveyored;

Additional:
- Refinery, arc furnace;

Thanks 😊
If I ever return to SE, the first thing I'd do is retrofit this exact ship with all the new stuff...

this thing still looks good, even by today's standards :selike:

Up to date now with all possible issues fixed, same as all other ships in hornet series :P

Yeah, the color is very different, but in my opinion it helps to give a more "realistic" look to the ship.
Good thing that none of the mods are needed to use the ship, u can load it perfectly withoput them coz they are a flight seat, landing gear, food /water production machines and the shutters to close the hangars, sadly right now it's the only way of making a closed compact hangar :P

Mods :(
And colour is too "rusty"...
However, I like it in general, also now I'm thinking about using that turret position in future - kinda reminds of an "sheathed" guns of, let's say, some generic sci-fi armed mech, like keeping weapons aiming up in "non-combat" mode :P

Hi Leonser! This is a great build, i love it! Do you mind if i make my own version of this beautiful ship and i upload it giving you all the credit you deserve? :)

@mirrorimage, ship updated. That was a puzzle to solve...

Damn, that is possibly meaning they're rebalancing them again... somehow. Anyway, still my fault - I knew game is in early access and will change one way or another and still made that pretty risky detail based on perfectly known thruster flames burning range, now it's changed and ruined my ship... Anyway, I will update next time I'll go in SE. It's my fav ship as well ;)
