Description
Welcome fellow engineers to the RCSP - ESSEX! This is a NO MODS interplanetary double runway Helicarrier that is designed for planetary invasions or reinforcments in any battle! I made the essex a year ago (based off of an old lego creation of mine) hoping that one day there would be planets, now that they're here I have retrofit my old version to be functional in SE!

The Essex Includes:

1. Two Hangars with 1x RCSP - Raven and 1x RCSP - Swift
2. Multidirectional runway landing lights to signal incoming or outgoing ships
3. Interior auto-opening sliding doors
4. All types of thrusters (Ion, Hydrogen, Atmospheric) to enter and exit a planets atmosphere
5. LCDs with information Relevent to the area (Special Thanks to MMaster for the amazing Configurable Automatic LCDs script found here: http://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=403921671 )
6. Four Jump Drives to escape the enemy!
7. Missile and Gatling turrets for defense... and if anything still stands in your way there are 4 Rocket launchers
aimed forwards to take out any who defy you!
8. Six reactors (Can be turned on but The Essex can run on batteries and solar alone, Use to recharge batteries)
9. Red Alert mode incase all is lost!
10. NO MODS so you can paste it on any server or world!

Tips to fly the ship:

To enter a planets atmosphere: fly towards a planet SO SIMPLE!!! then at 4000 m level out with the planets gravity and activate hydrogen and atmospheric thrusters, once you stop moving deactivate the hydrogen thrusters to save fuel.

To Exit a planets atmosphere: Level ship with planets gravity, activate hydrogen thrusters and hold space to accend. Once you reach 8000-9000m atmospheric thrusters start to lose their effectiveness so activate Ion thrusters to keep rising.

WARNING: when entering or leaving the atmosphere land the small ships on the hanger floor and not the connectors due to them disconnecting when leaving an atmosphere.

I had fun retrofitting this and I hope you have fun destroying and invading many bases! have fun!

Stunning, I thinks it's one of the best builds of large (huge) ships I've seen so far. One thing I thought of though is keeping the decks clear and hosting Friday Night Drag Car heats, flip a coin to see if anyone gets a parachute for their car. But really, that's a really great ship, it has put me off trying to build one for soetime now. I idmire alot to your walk , vry skilled , balance of aesthetics and function. Thanks mate.

This is a great carrier. Probably could invade a medium to large colony with this chonky boy.

or put a bridge for larger planes there, also connecting the hangars would also help

@Venom415, if you do make an updated version i would raise the bridge so you can insert one of your Helicarriers in the middle

your lego recreation is accurate but triggers me because its not symmetrical, colour wise

You should do that! I'd love to see an updated Essex with all those new features nowadays!

Probably more interior detailing, also finding a way to lighten it all so I can lessen the amount of thrusters underneath, and speaking of thrusters I'd add more hydrogen now that tanks hold more than before.

@Venom415, if you were to do an update/refit of the RCSP Essex (due to all the updates in the game since you first made it), what would you do to it?

this will be perfect for space :) I'll maybe update it to fly it in atmo, but gonna be just perfect to carry my fighters :)
