SDS Responsible For Halting Invading Fleet
-and while i cannot vouch for them, they are what we should be aspire to be. to be brave in the face of peril, and to take up arms to defend if not our country, then our future together as Makarellia. AD VARNAEA!!" said our Duce Gariherri in the conference press yesterday.

you should really imagine their faces when their lead ship suddenly got blown up. BOOM!! ha- *KzZZt* hahaha~ not our fault they decided to fly so close to the ground, easy pickings i tell you, and now we got scraps for days! even got a- *kZZt* reactor!! also.. i think I'm gonna gift it to our Miss, she said once that she probably gonna need one for a project, something about a electic pulse magnet launcher or something? ah anyway, i think the recorder's circuit's almost fried so i won't be able to record logs until i can get replacement, so i think I'll end the log here.

(if it gets close enough)
chiiposting, odd that i have to say.. idk.
weekday chiiposting per ushal?
yeah, good enough energy.
ANYWAY!! slowly building out the world, and incase you didn't quite get the memo, this is the first inkling of the fact that SDS isn't quite.. a normal pirate band, or group, or "country".. makes you curious huh? >:3
big hint : they're able to operate a 200m+ Aerial Heavy Cruiser. also, when you're in a stripped-down anomalous zone with fxckoff fog density, i mean.. why can't you? oh right, SDS's situation is quite rare *cough* i wonder.
anyway, if you wanna escape this in an airship, i suggest two course of action.
take either atleast one, or both, but never none at all.
- [1]. go faster, just... run as fast as your engines can push you.
- [2]. go higher, gain as much altitude as stupidly possible, drop every ballast you have and try(WARNING!! this is when the immersion breaks) to spazz out the air mine by being above it.
anyway that's all for today, hope great day is the kind of day you're having, and enjoy this goob of a mine, over and out!!
p.s. it's a remote mine

@ThomasRoderick fair point, I'll see to that however it shall be shaped.
.
good point. I was so constricted on bringing the sea into the air that I forgot that air might have more than sea does
@Monarchii
I mean, IRL torpedo boats often carried rockets for more close-in "screw you", so.... Why not combine both?
.
(Also, the second proposal sounds vaguely similar to the Japanese torpedo cruisers, or conversely the Yank carriers with Regulus missiles. Seriously, in the world of aerostats the difference between missiles and torpedoes might be whether they rely on aerodynamic flight alone or not.)
@ThomasRoderick also yeah, it's odd that the picture doesn't load. speaking of which though, you just gave me a fun idea of making two different types of destroyers, one with forward firing rockets and one with as you rightly said, torpille aérienne. dunno how i will make it but probably just an airship with a large cargo hold/ample deck space for the aériennes
@ShirakamiShimada cause I follow my whims lmfao
@Mitterbin :3
Ive never seen u ran out of ideas 😭
@ThomasRoderick I'll note that, also how does that gyro work anyway, never really got around understanding it
Hmm... 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐🤔👍
@Monarchii
Yeah, given the gyro only kicks in at terminal guidance range it really wasn't helping much.... Also, no need for the pitch code to include current pitch angle, the pitch input for gyros means "desired pitch angle" already.
.
.
.
Vanilla gyros tend to spaz out when they cannot counter the aerodynamic forces, so... most of them don't actually need aerodynamic control surfaces esp. when they're meant to be target drones.
The Izmails don't have enough aerodynamic control to countermand the gyros either way, and they fly just fine without control surfaces.
.
.
.
Either way, here's my ten-minute-fix to this mine/torpille aérienne. The gyro strength is actually pretty good for a slow-moving aerostat-torpedo.
.
.
.
and somehow your screenshot is missing.
I'll keep it in mind next time around, make the gyroscope stronger and all
@ThomasRoderick it already has it, just... not by much XD
