Hillsborough Heavy Destroyer

"I said make it powerful, not make it insane!" -Grand Admiral Jefferey Obertson A new threat to the weathering Steel Striders is dawning... the Scarlet Dawn have us outgunned, out-maneuvered, and out-matched. Or at least they did... seeing the vulnerability of heavy battleships to large Scarlet Dawn and Gray Talon craft the Steel Admirals have commissioned SinoViet Heavy Industries to do the once impossible... weighing in at 2. 6 million tons, the Hillsborough is 40% gun, 30% missiles, and 20% armor flying at over 100m/s. Twin railguns launch 15 MAC rounds in hyper-burst and quick succession swapping explosive penetrator rounds for armor-stripping hollowpoints to overwhelm even the most advanced active defenses and armor. If this wasn't enough engineers at SinoViet Heavy Industries added 2 Pods of long-range missiles on top of 14x large bunker-busting missiles and 1 Shiva Tactical Nuke. For defense, she boasts 2 pods of oversized interceptor missiles, one sentinel CWIS railgun, and 1 rampart heavy naval coilgun prioritizing small nuclear capable craft. Last but certainly not least a highly regenerative LAMs second only to the Megalodons in shear defense. Weapons - 2x Hyperburst railguns - 14x Large missiles - 2x turreted 270mm railguns - 1x 72mm CWIS AA - 36x Medium missiles - 36x Medium Interceptors - 124x Small Interceptors - 1x LAMs system (capable of overwhelming Meg) - 1x ICBM spawner Stats - ONLY 1. 366 Million materials! - 22. 9% Armor - 100m/s Top speed - 386m Altitude - 85,000 Engine power A lot of blood sweat and tears went into making this ship a reality and A HUGE amount of credit deserves to go to TheCreepofWar for helping a lot not just with construction and testing but also with designing the LAMs and doing the mimic work at the back of the ship on those oh so sexy engines! This ship takes heavy inspiration from the Hillsborough Destroyer of the same name sake from the halo universe and credit for design ideas is very much deserved. Check out some of our
