Fillet-class Armed Trawler

524 OrangeConnor2  one month ago

The Fillet-class armed trawler is a mainstay of the MWBS (Men Who Build Stuff) naval force, serving both as powerful weapons platforms as well as critical battery-recovery vessels.

The trawlers are outfitted not just with heavy-duty fishing equipment to scoop car batteries out of the ocean, but also their remarkably heavy arsenal consisting of a variety of different weapons systems.

These weapons include:
-1 50mm cannon
-3 Inferno Anti-Ship Missiles (Emergency use only due to prohibitive cost)
-2 113 kg torpedo tubes
-4 fixed-mount remote-fire machine guns
-Any firepower the crew may have brought with them

The Fillets are also fitted with flares to disrupt enemy targeting systems.

Unfortunately, the Fillet design is hampered by a lack of AA armament, being dependent on escorts and air cover to protect against hostile Eel Protectorate aircraft, and low speed, only being capable of 32 km/h in good weather.

Regardless of these faults, the Fillet-class is a reliable design and has proven vital in the war against the Eel Protectorate.

    If more dakka is desired, then there is the option to replace the 50mm turret with an RT-2T “Lawn Mower”.

    @Kerbango As I suspected. Just FYI, my current account is very new but I was first here over six years ago. I'm not exactly a newbie. I know a few things, fortunately.

    @Kerbango (Yes. That's the joke. Majakalona here seemed to think that also using Mac was surefire proof that someone is Grain Guy's alt)
    I know how to edit posts. That formatting is not something that's possible in the in-game text box, no?
