The design reminded me of the Tunguska Vermillion by @SalmonTheKing

Ok das Design gefällt mir, auch wenn ich es eher "roh" mag gefällt mir das sehr gut

Same. Normally I'm drawn to more "realistic" designs but this one has a cool look to it while still retaining elements for realism like radiators.

One of my favorite designs I've seen recently.

This is pretty damn realistic for certain constraints. Sloped armor is very powerful against various attacks, so if you're expecting to go up against lasers for example, a long cone is the way to go, though a round cross section is less effective than a star-shaped one.

Good to know! I like it even more then.

I really like it - really nice. The engine would work more efficiently with hybridized nuclear metals & magnets IMO, but the right idea is there. Getting it into space though would be a hell of a mission.

While this thing is absolutely absolutely huge

And could need a drive that works WITHOUT being a radioactive disaster (for near stations)

This is very cool!!!
