The Dowager's Fool
Hybrid Chassis Corvette.
The Fool was an aging Arbiter class light attack corvette before it was won for salvage by Brian in bet. Since then it has been heavily modified.
Structure Points: 100
Maximum Tonnage: 110 Tons
Armor Plate: 20 Points at Optimum
Core:
The Fool's core is a modified Arctec 5600 series Molten Salt Reactor with a reinforced Seebeck production forest. It produces 6 power units at minimal operational temperatures, and a maximum of 12 power units when 'running hot'.
The Fool's computer cores consist of a primary core, a secondary, and 6 auxiliary calculation cores.
Hardpoint Mounts:
Weapons:
2 Saber PDC Point Defense Rotary guns. Mounted on belted hardpoints fore and aft.
1 Big Iron Autocannon mounted on an axial track on the ship's upper fuselage.
1 Experimental Apollyon Plasma Caster mounted on the ship's nose.
Salvage:
1 Salvicraft mark 4 salvage suite mounted on an axial track on the ship's belly.
Mining:
1 GRNU Mineworks Mark 800 mining laser mounted on the ship's aft hardpoint with two retractable manipulator arms and the mining laser on a third arm.
Propulsion
The Fool's main drive cone is a mark 5 SpaceX refurb cone based on the original Falcon 9 MVAC propulsion units from the early 21st century that Brian salvaged from an old Martian derelict that Bob heavily modified with modern tech and controls.
The Fool's Secondary control jets are compressed helium and can be slowly regenerated from the ship's built in ram scoops along the cooling wings. They can also use compressed CO2 from the scrubbers or even water from the ship's processors gathered from asteroid ice.
