PFS - UVG - Shadow Unmanned Guided Missile Corvette

NOTE: I cannot get the blueprint to work, in that, when copied to a world, it never includes the missiles. For the missiles, I have uploaded a blueprint here.

There is also a world file that includes both the ship and a full loadout of 5 missiles here.

MOD NOTE: Technically, the ship uses 2 mods. However, I have only listed the armor ramps as a required mod. The ship will work perfectly fine without the Phoenix pack by Tristavius. However, if you want the full experience of this ship, you can get that mod here.

The Shadow was developed as a more mobile and quick-response version of the Akula cruiser. Using the latest in torpedo guidance systems, the Shadow can warp into enemy territory, disable ships from long range, and warp out before they can respond.

In most cases, Shadows are unmanned, as they often rely on prolonged ambush tactics, sleeping in enemy territory until the time is right. However, this limits the Shadow's operational range to allied broadcasting radii. To realize the Shadow's full reach potential, a Shadow can be manned by a single pilot, allowing it to operate within its entire 2000 km jump range.

Laser Assisted Remote Penetrator - LARP

Mass: 10,565 kg
Acceleration: 29.3 m/s^2
Battery: 1

The LARP is the latest in remote guided missiles, allowing it to precisely disable targets up to 10 km so long as the host ship has a line of sight.

To fire a missile, simply trigger the timer block of the one you wish to fire, and use the main camera to aim. The missile will fly towards wherever you are pointing the camera.

Although it is possible to fire and control all missiles at once, firing missiles alone or at larger intervals typically produces better results.
