The Raven Star
The Raven Star is a one of a kind test cruiser owned by Crimson Star Ship Yards and operated by Dragon Eye Munitions for the purpose testing prototype weapons, sensors, and jammers for Starships. Since it's first launch 18 years ago it has undergone hundreds of modifications. It is powered by quad anti-matter/matter reactor cores giving it ample power for to operate what ever is hooked up to it, and allowing it to mimic the power outputs of variously sized capital ships from corvettes, to destroyers. Many systems installed on current RHA capital ships and even fighters were developed on this ship. It's hull utilizes the latest stealth materials, and experimental cloaking devices, which allow's the Raven Star to operate in secret away from the eyes of it's competition. It's crew is comprised of 130 experienced engineers and test pilots.
This MOC was originally my brothers ship. Originally designed and purchased through LDD, my brother made many modifications to it over the years. It sat along side other starship MOCs collecting large amounts of dust for years until he eventually gave them all to me, with permission to scrap everything including this. However out of all the ships he had created this one happened to be my favorite, and although it was in rough shape, I decided to restore it rather than scrap it. I changed virtually nothing on it's design, apart from the aft section, which got some new guns, and replaced the engines, which were missing. I color coordinated the wings and fuselage, and smoothed out the blocky hinges he used with flat plate hinges. I also fixed a few structural defects, and a handful of other small things that would otherwise go unnoticed.
This was basically a very very delayed collaboration between the two of us. And now I am proud to present my brothers newly restored ship The Raven Star.
