AARC 011NCS 'Prism'

1,279 ark3192  3.7 years ago

A hard modification of the standard 'Tantalus' platform, the 'Prism' is a recon and intelligence gathering craft that relies on blistering speed to a higher degree than its fighter brother, and on the same magnetic defense mechanism pioneered through that same progenitor.

The jet black coating was used to absorb and refract radio waves adding an early stealth component to this craft. At the time and for a while this was the fastest craft employed by the Arcanix in totality.

creator note: as it seems these builds recently have been falling between the cracks i'll be doing less detailed descriptions.

AG1-hook
AG2-gyro and airbrakes for landing and ultra high speeds
AG3-secondary jets
AG4 landing lights
AG5 exp magnetic ballistic defence and jamming
AG8 Actuation for control wings
