This is one of my best mocs ever, the pics really do not do it justice cause
it is extremely slick and has and air that i love in ships, it has dignity
and it looks like it could actually be used.
<drivvily backstory>
this medium fighter was developed in very small quantities becuase of its
difficulty to construct, every single part was made custom and wasnt meant
to be replaced by other makes parts. however, due to the rarity of these
parts pilots have found various (and unexpected) replacements. from
bubblegum in place of filters to car seats in place of shock couches. This
is the former flag ship of the garisson 235 Marauders (my signiture base)the
new flagship is the Tera Intercepter, it was voted upon by the troops and
they felt it most embodied the maruaders.
The ship has 4 alternating redundant phase cannons that are mounted on the
vanes and act as primary weapons. There are also 4 different lenses used to
control each of the laser weapons.
The durability of this ship sometimes waivers and is often problematic, but
it is loved by its many different pilots and most fell that they owe it one.
</drivvily backstory
The hatch that swing perpendicular to the ground is also the hatch to the
cargo bay which takes up about 30% of the interior.
I am proud to say that this ship has retractable landing gear that i
basically stole from the jedi starfighter.
the fact that all the guns face forward bugs me quite a bit though it is not
from lack of trying... if i got detailed enough pics, could you guys give me
some ideas for some sort of turrets?

| (...) Scott, Wow, this is kind of painful. It looks like a real nice MOC, but the fuzziness makes it hard to see. I'm no stranger to fuzzy digital pics, but I've been having better luck lately with my daughter's $20 JamCam (at least until I broke my (...) (22 years ago, 12-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| An interesting design Scott....I like the no nonsense lines of the the main cabin with the angled vanes...breaks up any boxiness. Lots of possibilitie for variants as well with the long cabin wall....looks like a great place for an airlock port or (...) (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
