The Mk2 Cockpit is a Mk2 sized cockpit that is designed to be placed on the nose an airplane or spaceplane that uses parts of a Mk2 radial size.

Product description

Fits not one, but two Kerbals! This spearhead-shaped new Mk2 design from the lovable folks over at the C7 Aerospace Division should help you pierce the great blue yonder known as the Sky.

Usage

It is best used in spaceplanes because the Mk2 shape generates decent lift. It has one attachment node at aft, thus it conventionally is placed at the front of a set of Mk2 parts. Otherwise it is alike with the standard Mk2 Inline Cockpit, featuring the same radial size and crew capacity of two. One crew is enough to control the vehicle so this cockpit gives a limited "crew transport" capability to the craft. The MK2 Crew Cabin is ideal for adding crew capacity.

Trivia

  • One of the displays has a k-OS crash screen on it, which is almost identical to one shown by Microsoft Windows 95.
  • The Mk2 Cockpit resembles SR-71 Blackbird's cockpit, but the windows are slightly shorter, giving low visibility.
  • The Mk2 Cockpit was adopted from the "Spaceplane Plus" (SPP) mod by PorkJet.
