Space Shootle - Title1
Ever wonder what a military version of the space shuttle would look like? I never did, until TR came up with a totally awesome contest. Then I thought fast, and came up with this little ship.
I did a bit of research on the X-Plane series, but none of it really stuck, so I ended up going off my own imagination, plus the rather cool tail from the X-15, because apparently this shape is more stable at hypersonic speeds.
But anyway... it fits a dude up front in moderate comfort, sports retractable lasers, spacial mines and a pair of nukes, safely hidden under heat-resistant panels, and it uses Solid Rocket Boosters and External Fuel Tanks to blast its way into space, just like its bigger, more friendly brother.
(I'm not gonna ask you all to be super-critical on this, it was a fairly quick and leisurely one-day build that leapfrogged its way to the top of my build queue. Just enjoy it for what it is, a cool little fighter spacejet thing.)
