While the TNT Nuke Cannon is a rather cliché concept(I have seen several people doing that), I been always intrigued to build one myself. The "Trebuchet" Nuclear Payload Delivery Device is a modular, remote-controlled TNT Cannon.
It can propel a nuke for at least 400 blocks away (Of course, you can add more charges by building the "charge tower" higher) It can be reloaded instantly through deployers.
Why set off a nuke with flint and steel, while you can launch it from afar?
Here's a Youtube commentary video about the cannon, and the firing action.
LOVE THIS MOD. just have a few ideas that would make it cooler
1:HUGE ships, perhaps raise the max height for this
2:tilting, this would enable you to take off like a rocket, and level off or fly like a plane. also, it would make the mod more realistic
3:mountable weapons, stuff like cannons or lasers. it's just annoying that the only thing ships can shoot is arrows.
4:moveable parts, this would enable landing gear, transforming parts, and awesome stuff like that
5:better controlls. it would be nice if, instead of the ship continually turning untill you tell it to stop, it would be nice if it turned and stopped turning once you released the button. this would enable sharper turns and make flying more fun
About the weapons...
I found out that, using the Balkon's weapons mod, you can use dispensers as semi-automatic cannons, which is quite effective, if you wire them properly.
There is a bug with dispensers where it fires the arrow (or whatever) and then hits the dispenser from the inside and stops. I have not found a way to fix it without replacing the dispenser class (which I really don't want to do).
I guess I could make dispensers non-collidable..... Just don't make floors out of them? Lol.
Edit: Fixed dispensers.
Yay, I can have my potion launching gunship now, please release the 0.23 ASAP! =]
Orcas are awesome, no need to change them. In fact, if I didn't like the black color scheme you've got going with your bomber and your transports, I'd say make your fighters yellow like in Tiberium War 1.
Noted. I will change the hull colors, Maybe I will use the netherrack instead of iron (which is a slightly rusty block of metal plating) By the way, what do you think of the creeper face on the bomber? I am kind of proud of it. xD
Zeppelin mod was the first thing I thought of when I saw your aircraft (okay, second, my first was that they look a lot like GDI Orcas from a distance). I love the (albeit nonfunctional) chin-mounted gun/lever, very nice detail.
Ah, I never thought of that... but they do look like the GDI Orcas (I should change the hull colors to waffle-like then? xD)
Greetings, this is my very first large-scale build in minecraft, I present you the Desert Airbase:
Attack Gunship:
VTOL Transport:
B-100A "Creepofortress" Tactical Bomber:
On this build, I am utilizing the Zeppelin Mod at it's fullest, such as the rotating tandem radar, hangar doors, elevators, and of course the aircrafts themselves are flyable.
Please give me some comments, and give ideas on what I should add/remove/change.
I am kind of inspired by a youtube video that someone made a functional TNT bomber with zeppelin mod. Then I decided to make one myself, I present you:
The B-181 "Skycreeper" Multi Purpose Bomber
The Skycreeper is made out of an obsidian frame, powered by two furnaces
This beauty can drop up to 16 TNTs (or other munitions if you have mods like Nukes) at once through a redstone trigger
Time for some destruction!

The ship I built is working fine in the overworld (It has about 1900 blocks) It is equipped with 10 dispensers, 5 on starboard and 5 on port,
But when I copied my ship over to the end using MCedit, and activated the ship, the lag is so massive that I can't move the ship.
I suspect it is the dispensers that cause the lag.

It seems that you can only activate one dispensers per redstone pulse... making multi launchers impossible...
Is this a bug?

Thanks, this is my first decent creation. I tried to add bomb bay doors to it, but it seems the Zeppelin mod doesn't handle pistons well...
