    Whenever I see that small ship I can't help but be reminded of the Yokosuka MXY-7 that the japanese employed during WW2.
    I can vividly imagine some crazed pirate turning the archimedes into a flying bomb and then launching a suicide attack on a capital ship with it. Using its small signature, high speed and stealth capabilities to completely catch their enemies off guard and cripple the capital ship enough so that the pirates can jump in and have an easier time.

    Loved your video and story telling. My primary ship has always been the Andromeda, and with a highly trained crew of 6 it's unstoppable. I believe or at least we use the Merlin for scout/recon and rear security for the Connie. Usually, most people assume there is a simple crew in the Connie or a single pilot hauling cargo. But when you have 1 commander, 1 Engineer (for shield/power management), 1 weapons officer (for the large amount of missiles that can be fire off boresight), 2 turret gunners, and a Merlin fighter pilot there really isn't much that is going to slow you down. With a highly skilled Merlin pilot, the turn radius and agility can easily classify and designate hostile targets for the commander. And bring them in closer for those missiles to work them over.

    I've got one of each. The Merlin because the name. And the Archimedes for my racing collection.
    They are fun to fly around Arccorp. And if you land somewhere like Grimhex on the one and only big pad, it is courtesy to go in and spawn a merlin so that the big pad is cleared for the next guy.
    I hope they buff the size 1 and 2 guns, because right now they are pretty worthless as fighters. They desperately need 1 SCU so that you can depart your connie In orbit, fly to a planet. Retrieve a box or buy some supplies, and fly them back up to the Connie.
    But for now they are fun, but useless

Or your previous body when you just died. Not to mention a box or 2 from box missions. I look forward to the day of leaving the Connie in orbit, fly down to the planet or lunar surface, grab a box or 2 or 3, and fly back up to the Connie.

    I genuinely like the idea of a snub fighter whose base of operations is another larger ship. For the role I think these ships fit is for close combat support for the parent ship, even with the size one or two weapons, having 2 targets instead of one means a much more complex fight, may make you think twice about attacking. Also being able to leave a connie in orbit and use the fighter to take you to the surface in a much lower-profile ship I think would be beneficial. Just my two cents.

    I like my Archimedes, even though I largely ended up with it because I bought about 5 of them to use as LTI tokens a long time ago...
    But, overall it's one of the least useful ships I own.
    Can be fun to fly though.
    On the other hand, atmospheric flight in the p-72 (and p-52 for that matter) is exceptionally broken. I've seen the same behavioural flaw in most smaller ships (the 350r and mustang do it too at times), but in most ships it's minor, and happens only very occasionally.
    In the P-52/P-72 it's endemic;
    Trying to pitch up or down with the engine powered causes wild pitch oscillations, that frequently end in the craft doing a few vertical spins before settling down - typically pointed towards the ground, which can require rapid orientation correction- - which risks repeating the process.
    Probably the most broken thing to fly in atmosphere, though it's not so consistent as to render the ship unflyable...
    At a guess, depending on the complexity of the flight model, I'd say there's a major mismatch between the centre of lift and centre of gravity.
    Possibly also needs some horizontal stabilisers, even though it doesn't turn using control surfaces.
    They have some of the most well developed wings of any design, yet they fly quite badly...

    I see its main use as being a scout for the ground vehicle in the connie, be it the ursa that comes with the aquila or the lynx that will come with the phoenix. Think back to that CitizenCon video with the sandworm. A smaller, less complex ship might not be bothered by the EM interference that the connie might shy away from. But either way i bet that fella in the vid would have enjoyed having the air cover.

    Seems like more of a personal shuttle than a fighter. But having a dozen of these on a carrier type ship would be awesome. Something maybe 1.25x the size of an 890 jump. With a couple starter size ships, one capable of refueling the carrier and another to recover dead merlins.

    These vessels are also useful just as being pests, constantly harassing attacking ships. Again the Archimedes might be a bit more effective in this role, especially if given a full load of distortion guns. While it won't inflict much hull damage, it will wreak havoc on their shields meaning if the mother ship gets its' guns to bear, lights out.

    • @idiocyincorporated7635
      @idiocyincorporated7635 4 года назад

      Not to mention that they will fly circles around alot of other ships. So even though it might take less to take them out if you can hit them but they can hit you, you are eventually going to go down.
      Or at least a couple of components will, if the pilot is good enough they will be able to wreck your individual systems.

    Ik this is a old video. But I thought I'd point that recently I saw a video of people using the large luxury yacht ship (idk its name) as a pocket carrier. They fit 6 of these things into its hanger and jumped a hammerhead I think it was.
    It made me think how terrifying a Idris or larger capital ship using a bunch of these supported by one or two larger fighters would be.
    They could almost Battlestar Galactica it and use these as "vipers" and something larger as "raptors" supporting them. Would definitely turn a idris into a serious pocket carrier that can hold it's own against equal (sorta) or smaller ships.

    What about the thought of a larger carrier using snubs instead of full sized fighters would almost be able to fit 1.5x to 2x as many snubs. It could be used to fill the area and overwhelm an enemy. Would be cheaper on repairs and replacement, while still providing decent damage. Would like to see the Merlin’s Gatling beefed up a bit more with more damage or stronger incendiary rounds.

      Considering our ships that are capable of generating enough thrust to leave orbit fly slower than mach 1 (on earth), there's no reason they shouldn't. All our ships are too slow in atmo.
      With heat, power, and wear mechanics, there's nothing keeping them from sticking a size 0.25 micro jump drive that will overheat, run out of jump fuel, or break the drive after short "around the planet" jumps.

      And the planets are on the order of 1000-2000 km in radius, so that kind of range wouldn't even get you around a planet.
      Moons tend towards the 100,000 to 500,000 km range.
      Really, given quantum speeds of larger ships, and the logistics of trying to make an emergency recovery of a smaller vessel, something closer to 50,000 km is going to be the minimum viable range for quantum to mean anything.
      Below that you might as well not bother.

    If only you could put size 1 missiles on where the wing-mounted laser repeaters are. Because looking at the size of this craft and the fact that it has an unchangable integrated HUGE(compared to the craft's size itself) rotary BRRRRRRRRRRT cannon.
    It's the closest thing we can come to a space A-10 warthog. The Merlin/Archemedes are both 12 meters long while the irl A-10 is about 16. The irl plane is some 4 meters larger in length, and I can assume the width and height is also greater than this in-game ship.
    That's all I want, a CAS type small "snub" type fighter craft with just an oversized gun to go BRRRRRRRRRT on ground targets but is absolute dogshit at dogfighting or the like

    If the mother ship can land there's not much use for this. Maybe having your buddy jump in and fight with the main ship.

    My boy tested it. Only defense from a swarm of snubs is your own sworm or em pu pu pu pu P

    Fun ships, but I have never been sure snub fighters will have a true role within the verse.

    I think I will go with a stealth Merlin myself. The Archimedes's interior is too ostentateous

      Remember that SC is an open alpha, dont get that confused with finished by any means... 😅 CIG has fun making changes every patch that to varying degrees require us all to learn how to play all over again. Stability comes and goes patch to patch. But it is being built, and there is a lot to do if you have a bit of imagination.

    i haven't played in awhile but i am bummed this ship can't jump.even if they limited the distance and number of it can jump,it would be loads more useful

    The real question is whether either of these make any sense vs an Arrow or Gladius

      In swarms yes, and you have to look at it when the game is finished. Long term missions which will require real time maintenance, and upkeep for your ships, and or military operations, perhaps for pirates or reconaissance, they'll want these ships to stay small and quiet. Imagine a pack of "parasite pirates" along a trade route, with a few medium class support vessels. Swarming like bee's around their target, and quickly dismantling them for their mother ship to swoop in, loot, and get out as fast as possible.
      Then you have to consider long term exploration, these ships would be perfect recon tools to quickly travel new planets, scanning, and like he said, a fast mobile eva suit.
      Then again considering perhaps they add space faring animals. Space Whales, or other parasitic small creatures that live in the void of space, you can't easily constantly keep up a Gladius, or Arrow, but a smaller cheaper fighter like these would be able to take a little beating and not cost too much to repair and put back into service on long voyages.

      Not 1v1 maybe 2v1 but it all has to do with wether or not whom and in which ship has competent pilots.
      Pilots that know there ships limits and experienced would tear right through these ships with the size in guns alone.

    I find it odd that cig only did this with the connie series because its a great function. Almost makes me think they regret doing it .would have been cool to see a ship that had like 3-5 of these docked to it. Im surprised the carrack didnt get something like this on top of having a hangar.
