GR-T "Seraph" BattleCruiser

"Principle and strength, contained within us."

The GR-T class battlecruiser boasts an impressive armory for long-range combat. Its name, Seraph, comes from its missile swarm systems; when fired without a lock, the missiles look like wings. Other weapons include cruise missiles, heavy air-to-ground missiles (2X the size), and a heavy Gauss cannon. The Seraph also has substantial defensive systems. It comes with a Mara-type CIWS system, as well as side-mounted gun batteries to combat fighters.

How to fly:
Throttle for altitude.
Yaw for turning.
Trim for Forward (or backward!) thrust.

There are a lot of different weapons, so there is a massive instruction manual:

Please note - The cockpit, CIWS gun, and Gauss gun are gimballed! Use mouse as joystick, or use a flightstick for proper use. The gimballed cockpit is extremely useful for making missile locks.

How to use the MISSILE SWARMS:
1. Make sure that the VTOL slider is UP.
2. Lock on using inferno missiles.
3. Press any of the activators 1, 2, or 3. One group should be enough to kill your target.

How to use the CRUISE MISSILES:
1. Make sure that the VTOL slider is UP.
2. Press any of the activators 4, 5, or 6 to release a missile.
3. Use roll and pitch to move the missiles.
4. The missiles work best when the battleship is at an altitude of 5,000 ft or less! And yes, they are difficult to control!

How to use the GAUSS CANNON:
1. Go into camera 5. It should have the iron sights for the gun (hint. they are made out of dim beacon lights!)
2. Roll and pitch (Use mouse as joystick or flightstick recommended) to orient it.
3. Drop a Boom 50 to fire!

How to use the CIWS SYSTEM:
1. Roll and pitch (flightstick or use mouse as joystick recommended) to orient.
2. Fireguns to shoot. Aim right at the missiles through the iron sights! (Camera 4, probably)

How to use the side-mounted GUN BATTERIES;
1. VTOL controls orientation.
2. Press activator 7 to activate the guns.
3. Press Fireguns to fire!

Additional notes:
1. If you are aiming straight ahead, don't shoot the CIWS and the Gauss cannon at the same time.
2. The Gauss bombs are nocollided, so don't worry about shooting yourself.
3. You also have standard inferno missiles. Fire like you normally would. These are twice the size, so they are a bit slower... but they have twice the explosion!

    @spefyjerbf a few REFLEX missiles may fix that

    @spefyjerbf Yeah CIWS Was Very Hard To Properly Do On Naval Vessels let alone spacecraft so the execution here is great (even in 1.8)
    Note : VERY Easy To shoot Down Using Sol:Agressor (Criminals will love that thing)

    @Simpleplaner656 Thanks! This ship was made before the devs added flares, so the CIWS was a must-have.

    Oh my god i love this thing
    Its design is so uniqe and its very easy to control and the CIWS is much more fun than pressing flares the ship itself seems to what future humans may make (we like missiles more that anything) could use more main gun ammo though

    @JMicah4 As in the TLS mod? Or just a gun with high rate of fire?

    @JMicah4 Yes. If you can, use the 1.7 beta. I want to see how this ship holds up - even with its many weak points (that, if shot, will deal critical damage).

    @Ephwurd Thanks! I should probably look up some specs of different ship classes so I can classify my ships correctly.

    Looks too small for a battlecruiser, this one may as well be a frigate. Great work though!
