Bulldog Replacement

[Haste]

So I had a thought:
What if this ship is turned into a VHF?
Perhaps it could be converted like this:

• Powercore buffed to 10,400
  
• Armour stays the same at 9,400
  
• Turning speed stays the same
  
• Retains 1 Torp slot and 1 CD slot.
  
• Gains a VHF Shield hardpoint
  
• Gun hardpoints replaced to 4 class 9 and 2 class 8
  
• Other stats stay the same
  

Those stats are basically a better version of the current Loki and such. You're more likely to get a 2 class 9, 2 class 8 version with those stats (just like all the other CD+Torp HFs with a Class 10 Shield).

Junkers already have a VHF (albeit a bad one).

Could make the Collector something like a Templar clone.

Wat.

The Collector is a solid ship, and "Templar clone" describes it rather well as-is.

As for the model: the textures aren't very Junker-like in my book, and it'd look a little out of place in the line. Just like the Bulldog does right now, I suppose. A bit more yellow and gray, plus a healthy dose of visual wear&tear could fix that.
Other than that, looks neat. And most definitely PvP-capable.
