Spacers,
You may have noticed capital class ships from the Eastern Block and 3vil,
well so have we. To combat these larger ships and the havoc they can cause,
I want to introduce you to the Strategic Missle Anti Capital heavy fighter.
The configuration in these release photos have 4 hull piercing TARDs
(Torpedo: Advanced Radioactive Dynamic), 2 pods of HAMs (Heat Aquiring
Missles) and 5 FRAP cannons (2 rapid fire Fraps on the front cowl).
This craft is basically a SLAM sitting on a huge power plant to power it’s
warp drive and weapon systems. Much of the cockpit configuration and flight
controls are similiar to the SLAM but it has more advanced targeting systems.
While not as nimble as a SLAM, in a battle it can endure as much damage as it
can inflict and still take the pilot home at the end of the day. (think A-10
of space)
She’s made to take out cap ships and defend fleet craft like Vanguard and
Tribunal. You don’t want to see a SMAC PAC flying towards your ship in the
midst of battle. Sneak peek:

I do hope you review the technical photos after they go through final
inspection and reply soon.

Very nice. It looks fast, beefy, and ready to take something out.
On a side note, I hope you are able to post some more pics of your
recent additions to the Star Rangers theme sometime - they’re
looking pretty slick. Anyway, congrats on a great looking model.

P.S., Just a thought, the acronym for the torpedos could also work
as D.A.R.T., which to me makes a little more sense, but T.A.R.D. is
kind of funny, so that works too. =)
