For Mark IV type lovers, this SSTO can carry both kerbals and heavy / lightweight transport vehicles. Called Space Ant, because this style of pieces does not please me, it looks like a giant ant or some big insect.

This ship has an integrated laboratory, superior door for internal access for the purpose of releasing the solar panels, contains a quick access gate if you need to get out of the chair and reach the deck of the ship fast enough, has 3 pneumatic docking ports for connect the vehicles and make the transfer internally inside the ship, has a robotic arm to facilitate the transport of loads, when using it is recommended not to exceed the weight otherwise the maneuvers will not work, and the coupling may break, has a docking port in the nose and cameras for both parking and surveillance / visibility, the entire ship is equipped with Mechjeb 2 and with the help of ASET Avionics almost all the functions of the ship are controllable from inside the main cabin, advanced maneuvers do not work, however much can already be done.

This craft can take off from the main lane directly into space without the aid of additional boosters, however it is advisable to adapt the internal space for additional tanks, it comes from the factory with two containers on each side to maintain proportional weight / aerodynamics, any internal modification recommends attention to the above-mentioned proportion.

This ship has 4 Vector engines, so it is not recommended to accelerate to the maximum to take off, 50% of the power is more than enough.

Soon I will post the adapted vehicles for connection and transport with this ship. Stay tuned, enjoy the craft, and fly safely.
