Cargo Ship
Military Minelayer
[[File: |frameless|300px]] |
A Military Minelayer is a cargo ship hauling many warheads, and explosives.
Contents
Defenses
Anti-ship defenses
This is a military ship, so it's no surprise that it's heavily guarded.
- 1x Gatling turret on the ship's rear.
- 1x Gatling turret on the top.
- 1x Gatling turret on the bottom.
- 2x Gatling turrets on the front.
- 1x Missile turret on each side.
Anti-personnel defenses
The ship's interior has no defenses.
Traps
2) Explosion
3) Resulting wreckage when all warheads are triggered
4) Damages of an incomplete destruction
This ship has fifteen warheads, all positioned to detonate in a chain reaction when reverse thrust is applied.
If the warheads are detonated, there won't be much left of the ship to salvage (shown right).
The ship's exterior will remain mostly intact, however all of the valuable modules will be destroyed; only the carcass of heavy armor blocks will remain.
Sometimes, in a very rare case, not all warheads will ignite. You will lose the thrusters, containers and turrets on the back part of the ship. But the front end with the reactors and the large cargo containers will remain mostly unscratched.
Tactics
Approach
As of v.1.030 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot you if you are moving with more than 3m/s.
With the second best armament, a compact size, a hold full of warheads, and no easy way inside, this is the most complicated ship to hijack. The floating approach from the front is blocked by the Collector and the Connector.
The access Door is additionally secured by the lower gatling turret.
So at this time, approach tactics are unclear, save one bit of advice: don't shoot the explosives.
Best try to use several decoys (can be real Decoy or any block moving with more than 3 m/s) to distract the turrets.
Attack
As of v.1.030 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot you if you are moving with more than 3m/s
If you go for a kill, shot at the warheads in the back. That will destroy both reactors and the upper, lower and back Gatling turrets. But you will also loose all four large cargo containers and several of the small cargo containers.
Entry
There are two sections to this ship, but only the front section has an interior that isn't filled with explosives.
A vertical cross-section of the ship, viewed from the left, is shown below:
At the bottom of the ship is a door that leads to a vertical shaft made with passage blocks.
This shaft leads to three different levels:
- Top: Access to two large cargo containers, a gravity generator, and the beacon behind that.
- Middle: Two small reactors and the cockpit.
- Bottom: Access to two large cargo containers.
Disable
The reverse thruster trap can be disabled by either:
- Turning the offending small thruster off from the cockpit or any terminal connection. (small thrusters 22)
- Removing/disabling the small thruster with a grinder.
Some heavy armor blocks, or warheads and a ramp need to be removed to gain access to this thruster. When you can access the thruster, use the grinder on them, at least until they are disabled, then you're ready to go.
Alternatively, if you're in a hurry, you can maneuver the ship to where you need it by only applying thrust in a forward direction.
This will mean that you need to point the ship away from your destination before you switch on the dampeners.
Salvage
Cargo containers
Each of the four large cargo containers can easily be raided.
The small cargo containers are near the turrets and hold extra ammunition.
Cargo summary:
- 2x Grinder
- 2x Welder
- 8x Computers
- 30x Explosives
- 95x small Steel Tubes
- 61x Steel Plates
- 24x Thrust Components
- 300x 25x184mm Ammo Containers
- 73x Missile Containers
Turrets
Cargo summary:
Reactors
There are two small reactors accessible from the interior containing 10kg of Uranium each.
Cargo summary:
- 20kg Uranium
Ship Composition:
Thrusters & gyros
- 22x Small thrusters
- 2x Large thrusters
- 2x Gyroscopes
Reactors
Cargo System
Miscellaneous
- 1x Beacon
- 2x Antennae
- 1x Gravity generator
- 2x Doors
