A Military Escort is a type of cargo ship.
Contents
Defenses
Anti-ship defenses
This is a military ship, so it's no surprise that it's heavily guarded.
- 1x Gatling turret on the ship's rear.
- 1x Gatling turret on the top-middle.
- 2x Missile turrets, one on each side.
All turrets are connected to the cargo containers via conveyor tubes.
Anti-personnel defenses
The ship's interior has one warhead in the back with a thruster ready to activate it.
Tactics
Approach
s of v.1.030 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot you if you are moving with more than 3m/s.
Best aproach is, so far, to use several decoys (can be real Decoy or any block moving with more than 3 m/s) to distract the turrets. Since the Military Escort has no front or bottom turrets, the best approach vector is from the lower front.
Alternatively you can move slightly below of the path of the ship at a distance of more than 800m and activate the Inertia dampeners to keep absolutely still.
When the ship is above you, match speed with ship. But stay really close to the ship and out of the target area of the turrets.
Then access a terminal link and turn the turrets off (or the "Target moving objects" option). When inside the ship head to the back and remove the warhead and the thruster so you can pilot the ship without exploding.
Attack
As of v.1.030 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot you if you are moving with more than 3m/s
However, the Military Escort has one major weak point. Directly adjacent to the side entrance is an Interior Wall. This weak wall is all that shields one of the Small Reactors powering the ship.
Entry
There are two ways to enter this ship, from each side of the ship. These can be seen on the floor-plan below:
