Hey guys!

Thought I'll through in one of my recent ideas. Actually this is just part of a bigger concept I have in mind, that I might model, if I get the time.

This is an entirely modular ship - the Space and Areal utility ship - SA01, mainly intended for repairs in space docks, and on repair vessels.




It has multiple thrust exhausts in the back, each of which can be rotated individually to give the best maneuverability.


As well as some more thrusters on the utility unit.

This unit can be swapped out if broken, or for different tasks.

The base utility unit has 3 hardpoints that can be equipped with a mechanical claw, tractor beams or welding and construction tools.

SA-01 will be part of a big repair vessel, I have planned.

This repair vessel will hold a total of six of these utility ships in it's hangar, and provide docking ports for ships like the constellation or retaliator, as well as a landing deck for smaller ships, like the aurora or hornet.

I thought a repair vessel like this could be a valuable asset of an organisation.
During a conflict, or a fight this ship should be positioned away from the front lines, close to a charted jump point where damaged ships can escape the battlefield and directly jump close to the repair vessel.

Anyway, I already got some sketches for the bigger ship, and will probably soon upload some pictures af a basic model.

Looking forward for your feedback!

And, by the way, here is a turntable of the small ship for now ;)
