RE: Tu-99 Torpedo Assault Bomber
Comrades, attached
below is the finished prototype for the Tu-99 Assault Bomber. With a payload
possible of six hot-load torpedoes and hardpoints for eight more external
launch style, we at the Advanced Research Dept believe that this will present
a serious threat and counterbalance to the recent launch of the Vanguard.

That is really cool looking. I am really curious though, why do you call
somthing that big a “fighter.” I mean almost everyone one here in .space makes
these relatively huge craft and calls them “fighters.” Maybe I am just being
silly but I would have called that a heavy torpedo boat or light torpedo
corvette. Maybe calling it a “fighter” fits with the PCS and EB design scheme
better or something that I missed somewhere. Well either way, it definately
looks like it can deal out some serious damage and is a really cool looking MOC.
I particularly like the “train wagaon fence” part used as greeblage.

| (...) I think Rick calls it a bomber, which is inherently larger than a fighter. And I think it's way to small to be a light corvette. Torpedo boat is doable. ~Trev (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
