Yeah. They were modelled a while ago, i just never put them on the actual mesh cause they get put on later when they're put in game.

Description

Just to demonstrate the similarities and differences in design.

The Orthrus is 1.5x bigger than the frigate and has the same 2 meter thick titanium armour as the Thanatos, with considerable extra cladding in places.

Armed with two MACs, 24 over sized archer pods and numerous regular sized pods. Like other destroyers, the Orthrus has no fighter craft, and relatively (% of the ship, not actual size) less space compared to a frigate devoted to pelicans and marine ground forces, but still hoasts a sizable ammount due to it's over all larger size, including drop bays housed under the lower arms and a traditional hangar further back.
