(URL) Hello All. The F1-A was built for operations in both space and atmospheric theater of battle. It is able to be deployed from a space platform or ground based installations. Its variable control surfaces and thrust vectoring make it a very (...) (19 years ago, 21-Dec-05, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX) !!

(...) Wow! This is just too beautiful! :-D I think what I like most is your part usage. It's just so careful and precise. It's something I see in all your MOCs, especially your hardsuits. It looks like all those years of building compact little (...) (19 years ago, 21-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) Thanks MP. I agree about the lessons learned from building small. Those lessons came really handy when putting the pilot with all its gear in that cramped cockpit. Would you believe I am working on a smaller version of the F1-A? See ya. (19 years ago, 21-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

I saw this plane on BrisckShelf before you posted it here, and wow! it's beautifull! My favorite detail, what amazed me the most are the vectoring thrusters. Excellent! I also really like the use of 1x1x1 plate with "hand" you use behind the (...) (19 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

I want to build a squadron, with each flight having its own livery. And (...) (19 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

The first thing I thought when i saw it was "Yay, chibi YF-19!" Very nice. I'm all over the swing-wings, and the hidden decoy flares. It reminds me of (URL) this> little sucker from Gundam Sentinel. I'm not sure I like it as much with the wings in, (...) (19 years ago, 22-Dec-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

You are right, I had to compromise, I really did not want to make the fighter bigger to fit the landing gear inside. I made some landing skids that make the (...)

Hey David, Very groovy! Reminds me of the design of the planes from "Stealth", which were the only good part of the movie. Impressive that you got so much articulation at such a small scale.
