---------------------------------
A) Information:

This Mod adds the Colonial Viper from Battlestar Galactica to Freelancer. It includes the ship, custom-designed engine, power-generator and weapons.
You can buy the Viper and the weapons on the Battleship Rio Grande in Colorado.

The Viper is a fast interceptor. It's standard speed is faster than the normal FL Speed, and it's Cruise-Engines kick in very fast. But the Viper always had fuel-problems, so the Cruise-engines draw power from the energy reserves. When they are depleted, you have to drop out of cruise and wait until they have recharged. This leaves the ship very vulnerable, as the Cruisengines use the same batteries that charge the weapons.
Stats:
Gun/Turret Mounts: 2/0
Armor: 4000
Cargo Space: 40
Optimal Weapon class: 8
Max. Weapon Class: 10
Additional Equipment: M,CM


The Lasertorpedo guns are the main weapons of the Viper. The Lasertorpedoes are very effective against physical oobjects, but have next to no effect to energy shields

The Energy mines don't use physical ammo but also draw energy from the gun-batteries. The projectiles are drawn to other metallic objects. As the mines are only energy, they don't do much physical damage, but do massive shield damage. Your batteries need to be filled at least 25% to be able to provide enough energy for a mine.

I've also included texture templates for all the parts of the ship, so that anybody who wants can do new textures.
