Introducing the GTCv Vilvakis
The GTCv Vilvakis is a dual role assualt corvette / carrier.  Used for rapid bomber strikes, the Vilvakis sacrifices armamant for the ability to hold and maintain up to 10 fighter wings.  Vilvakis rarely operate alone - normally they provide fighter support and cover for other corvettes such as the Deimos and Sobek.

   

This is simply a (reskinned) version of a model I made for another campaign  - it's fully finished, except for balancing the default loadout.

It's damn cool starting misisons from that fighterbay

That thing is tight.  

I'd reconsider the 10 wings idea though- maybe five or six.

I'm beginning to understand why     didn't use this sort of design - it's pretty tough because the ship needs to move while you're in the middle of takings off - or my paths are dodgy.

Plus, they'res a slightly dodgy clipping bug on the side, where it becomes transparent when you fly through upon takeoff... i'll have to test further
