Artemis is a highly manoeuverable non-physical starship, armed with advanced automated and manual weapons systems. It has smooth non-physical flight with momentum simulation, which is flexible enough to perform loops and rolls. It is designed for a small crew, but still has extra rooms for roleplay.
Recently updated, Artemis is now made from a combination of mesh components, sculpts and traditional prims while maintaining a lower primcount than its predecessor. The scripts have been tuned up to reduce memory usage and script time while adding new smoother animations and brand new sound effects and visuals.

Modding
Artemis is highly modifiable, provided the user resets the ship after linking or unlinking components, many changes can be made including the addition of custom scenes to the rezzers and the alteration of the ship's textures which are included for editing as well as available on our website for download. The new included textures are now after popular request tintable. For more detailed information on modding the ship please consult the Artemis manual and our wiki.

Lore
These small frigates probe, provide reconnaissance, and lay down covering fire as part of a carrier group. They may team up as a 'wolf pack' to bring down an enemy's shield so that a larger ship may administer a coup de grace. Designed for a small crew on a medium-duration voyage, the Artemis-class Support Frigate is commonly found in small groups supporting Coalition battlecarriers.
Notice for citizens of the Colonial Martian Republic: Military training is required to operate this vessel.

Great Small to Midsize Ship
I wanted a ship for my Intelligence gathering branch of my military, and this one is perfect! It has plenty of room for crew members, two multi-purpose rooms, extendable docking rings, and a nice little teleporter.
The only thing I can see it lacking is a command chair at the back of the bridge, but you are then free to choose your one from around the marketplace.
I look forward to whatever Greeble(r) puts out in the future, and I am hoping for even larger ships.
:)
Very good work! i think it is one of SL favourite spaceship for all ppl :)
Artemis Support Frigate Review By Thornycroft

Very nice frigate class ship!
Excellent frigate class for RP, its a very low build, which works perfectly for my RP sim.
All Around Spectacular
I got the Artemis instead of some of the larger (and more expensive) options available on the market, and my already high expectations got blown away.
For having under 250 land impact, the Artemis is a total dream. It flies incredibly smoothly, although the 'acro' movements can be a bit awkward, with the way the ship pitches and rolls, it still moves really nicely, and no collision physics, while leading to some funny situations at times, does keep it from every getting stuck.
The interior feels a little bit cramped at times, but the two rez rooms makes the compressed space still work really well, since someone with good furniture options and creativity can give the ship literally as many different room configurations as can be imagined! The compact interior isn't amazing, and makes movement a little bit of a challenge at first, but it's easy to get used to, and the I feel like the overall scale makes it feel a lot more like a realistic interior, and not a cavernous starcruiser with wasted space.
And to top it all off, the quality of the build, the textures, and the features are all incredible.
The features, especially the auto-targeting turrets and missiles, the transporters... and the interface that lets you perform all of the functions remotely, from your HUD, or from the Panopticon is just endlessly entertaining, and great for setting up everything from military combat scenarios, to just fun RP.
I recommend the Artemis 100% for anyone looking at getting a personal combat ship, or for a support vessel to add to a fleet or space station.
Very Very well made
I recently bought a ton of stuff from this vendor to make space stations, colonies and the like. I must say I am very very impressed with this particular item, Usually I just buy things and leave reviewing to others but this frigate was worth a review.
Love the way you can either have the rooms empty or rezzed with items and also the fact when rezzed the items follow the ship when moved, the doors well made, plenty of options. And fully modifiable ^^
