Babylon 5 post Crusade Multi Purpose Vehicles and Capital Ship Barge

thingiverse

Post Crusade Series, Earth Force is in peril, due to planetary lock down from the Drahk Planet Killer super virus and, I would Imagine with Riots on Earth, Capital Ships Ready to take on any race that would seek to destroy the Earth Alliance, Earth Alliance Ships would have to be strategically scattered. Given that backdrop, and a crippling lack of Engineering, Design and Production of ships lost in the Civil war previous and that last Epic battle, Mars would now be taking control. Historically in real history, civilian ships were commandeered for war efforts. Also with the lack of production facilities attached to the Earth Alliance Engineering core being down for the count, creates a terrible defense posture against an easy invasion. So the task would be difficult. In the show, we see scenes of Mars stepping up and in the Movie, we see Mars showing a lack of Engineering capabilities. There would a need for a stop gap.So what do we have to work with? A whole lot of civilian ships to commandeer and a whole lot of shratnal floating around Earth. So, the idea would be to find a middle ground, blend them. Here are many models of Multi Purpose Vehicles to choose from with that blend in mind. The base is the Planetary Survey Ships, (civilian) modified with the repaired blown off parts from the battle. This would be a planetary defense executive to answer those kinds of attacks. Here you will find 5 Versions of the No Atmospheres, Low Oppressive Atmosphere and Highly Oppressive Atmospheres Ships along with developmental stages. Take a good look, this was an extremely physics based praactical remix and blend of parts and arrangements.These Vehicles would be Sentinel's of the Planets and Colony's of Earth Force during these times to allow Capital Ships to take any pending war elsewhere while replacing the Planetary Defence Grids destroyed by the Earth Civil war.Terminology: MPSTV-Multi Purpose Surveillance Tactical VesselMPSS - Multi Purpose Strategic Ship (Some have duel Delta wing or single wing depending on the atmospheric condition to operate in, and landing Engines to transport crew to bases.Also there is a Capital Ship Missile Barge.Ill expand more soon on the vessels design intent, capabilities and layout. The STLSs are up, I have validated Most of the Prints, but not the barge as of yet. I have done heavy design work on these models, however I consider them remix's due to the heavy amount of various Thingiverse parts, so credit where it is due. The STL's are not slice because of complexity, this option I like to provide can't apply here due to the complexity and your printers capabilities. So please take your time.Enjoy-JH
