Do any of these type of ships exist in VS yet??

I could probably make one but it has to be in one big mesh.

As for the turrets, are they orientated to be placed on the top of the ship by default?

I would like to make one of those.

when making a ship can you apply a class to it in it's xunit file?

I don't think so.. however.. all of the vegastrike mesh are in .xunit files.. not only fighters.

the list of combat roles is in the csv files in the ai directory (you may need cvs):
