Kestrel CTE-20000 Light Bomber

[Zynth]

Hello, I 'm new to the forums.

I have made a Light Bomber in Google SketchUp. No textures.

I hope to receive some feedback on how it looks like and stuff.

Possible names: Kestrel (main), Kite, Osprey. (Any recommendations?)

Info card: A follow up from the famous Roc bomber. Finding that the Roc had somewhat a problem catching smaller ships. Its designers decided that a faster more agile version was required to handle more delicate missions. The Kestrel has a comparatively smaller power core but what it loses in power more thank makes up for in speed. The Kestrel is faster than a regular bomber, with about the same agility as a VHF. The smaller powercore and few hardpoints may be a turn off though. A mediocre 2 gun mounts, 1 bomber torpedo hardpoint and 1 cruise disruptor (together with the usual mines and countermeasures) makes you feel that the designers could have done a better job.


This ship is meant to be a Light Bomber. I 'm not sure if 2 gun mounts or 3 would be better...(Suggestions?)
The powercore should be around 31,000 u (do not churn out too many SNACs...It could prove to be inbalanced. Possibly ammo torpedo only?)

I don't know how to model, hitbox and put ships in the game. So just take this as a suggestion. I am unable to do it myself.

Here are the pics:
