Featuring parts designed to replicate the US Orbital Section (USOS) of the International Space Station, including:
- Pressurised modules & cupola
- Integrated Truss Structure & solar arrays, including iROSA
- External payloads & experiments
- Other structural pieces, science parts and antennas
- Canadarm2 & Mobile Base System
- New additions to the ISS such as BEAM, Bishop airlock, and more

Tantares is recommended to build the Russian Orbital Section (ROS) 

CRAFT FILES
The following craft files are included: 
- International Space Station - USOS (2023)
- International Space Station (2023)*
- International Space Station (2011)*
- International Space Station (2003)*
- Space Station Freedom (1991 baseline)

* = requires Tantares for ROS parts. ROS craft files by Zarbon

INSTALLATION
Place the contents of GameData/ into your KSP/GameData/ directory. 
If you already have HabTech2, benjee10_sharedAssets or htRobotics installed, please delete the existing mod folders in your GameData directory before installing the new versions to avoid compatibility issues.
