If Imperium at any point gets a Bengal Carrier, I volunteer as one of the pilots or crew for it. I am putting my hat in the ring now, before anyone else does.
Just imagine the depth of teamwork needed to get that one off the ground huh? What are you most excited for in SC concerning capital ships?Īnyway all this had me really excited so I made a vid:įorget the size of the cannon. I would love to fly an aurora up the cannon and watch the shell load in and be fired out with it.įrom what I understand the Bengal has a crew of up to 1000 people. I totally want to stand on that as it fires.
Series of thousands and thousands of charged electromagnets generate the power needed to throw the 130mm slugs. These rail guns use the same technologies as standard fighter-based mass drivers, on a massive scale once thought impossible to achieve. The most powerful single-charge rail gun in known space, a hit from a Ship Buster is capable of smashing a destroyer as though it were a tin can.A single Ship Buster forms the keel mount of the Bengal carrier, while a series of the weapons forms the fighting power of the Retribution-class. What would you do if you had the biggest gun in the galaxy? BAT offers the opportunity to answer that question in the form of their massive 130mm “Ship Buster” rail gun system.
