That seems like a nice design, would be cool to try it out on some of the more advanced armors floating around the forum.

Has anyone tested the efficacy of a double-punch (a shotgun spray of lighter shrapnel to weaken or destroy the Whipple shield followed up by a more concentrated spray of heavier fragments to punch through any heavier armor) flak missile system yet? I'm having difficulty differentiating the damage difference between my standard "concentrated spray" flak missile and the double-punch system.

I'm having difficulty differentiating the damage difference between my standard "concentrated spray" flak missile and the double-punch system. Actually the more massive a projectile going through a whipple shield, the more likely it will be intact coming through the other side. So using less, but larger fragments would be the go to over having thousands of lighter followed by larger. |

...I have literally no idea how I did this, nor do I know whether I could actually build a ship that could mount this and use it in combat. This thing is longer than some of my prototype battlecruisers.  |

"Only costing three earth GDPs each!" are you supposed to not be able to see your own pictures? I had to right click it and view the image in a new window (only showed up as an icon on the forum) It would be really cool if you manually placed all those guns to get them all on one side so they could all alpha strike together with one massive broadside. |

Wouldn't a normal stock gunship be able to pull so much range on this ship and just dunk on it from so far out?

And their armor might be good enough to take a sandblaster barrage, although I must confess that my own armor testing against stock gunships has been a complete failure up to this point. |

It's the 286 mm coil guns. They shoot 10 kg projectiles that go right through 1 m of van-chrome steel, and are 8129% efficient. |
