Gagarin warp drive test ship
(Storm Class Battlecruiser)
Five centuries ago, the first astronaut successfully entered space, marking the dawn of humanity's cosmic era. Since then, the solar system has become our new frontier. Over those five hundred years, humanity experienced countless conflicts and wars across this vast domain, until fifty years ago, when unity was finally achieved under a single governing entity—the Solar System People's Federal.
In these fifty years of unity, we have accomplished remarkable feats. Supported by Dyson swarm arrays, we constructed the circum-solar accelerator; and just three years ago, we successfully validated the theory of quantum gravity, unifying the framework of physics.
Today, the warp-drive experimental vessel Gagarin, named after that first astronaut to enter space, is about to conduct humanity's first warp navigation experiment—an endeavor that will inaugurate our interstellar age. This experimental ship was converted from the decommissioned storm-class battlecruiser Volcano. Although the storm-class, designed for fleet engagements, remains the most powerful warship in terms of long-range firepower, the widespread deployment of stealth missiles has rendered such artillery-centric vessels gradually obsolete within modern combat systems.
Nevertheless, it is precisely its powerful energy supply system—originally designed to support numerous laser turrets—that enables this ship to drive the warp system known as the "Singularity Engine," making it humanity's first faster-than-light spacecraft. Considering the uncertainties of warp travel, the vessel has been designed as an unmanned craft. All explosive weapons previously carried by the battlecruiser have been removed, and the remaining turrets have been stripped of their fire control systems, retained only to observe potential structural damage caused by gravity gradients during warp bubble formation.
Soon, we will collectively witness another great leap in human history—the dream of walking among the stars is now within our reach.

@Aludra877 @BeaconIndustries Thank you for providing the inspiration for the warp drive creation.

I'm very sorry that the completion of this work is very low. This is even an improvement based on my work from a long time ago. This is different from my original plan. However, even if I reduce the acceleration to 1 km/s, it will still cause damage to the missile launch bay and the turret. I think it can't be called warp drive if it goes any slower. So I can only release this spaceship without controllable weapons first.
Notes:
1.VTOL can be achieved by switching the RCS translation mode.（Mobile Devices）
2.When the height is less than 100m, the landing gear is automatically opened.
3.The heat sink array will automatically deploy when the spaceship is outside the current planet's atmosphere and higher than 100m.
4.AG2 needs to be higher than 100m and less than 10km to be activated. Turn on AG2 to start the auxiliary control. At this time, a mode selection window will pop up: Enter 1 (default) to enter the altitude hold mode. Enter 2 to enter the auxiliary landing mode until the spaceship touches the ground. Turning off AG2 will terminate all auxiliary controls. The auxiliary control program can only control the vertical speed and flight attitude of the spaceship when hovering or landing. The horizontal speed and forward direction of the spaceship still need to be manually controlled. Don't use this function on asteroids or satellites with almost no gravity.
5.AG3 needs to lock the destination before starting. The spaceship is outside the current planet's atmosphere and higher than 10km . If the speed exceeds 10 km / s when starting AG3, a mode selection window will pop up: Enter 1 ( default ) to continue acceleration Enter 2 to decelerate or exit warp speed.The warp engine is only controlled by AG3 and is not controlled by the throttle.
6.When running this craft on your device, the waiting time of the Vizzy program may be different than expected.
