The F-56 is a USIN escort fighter. Escort fighters are smaller than full fighters, and are meant solely for defending interstellar warships. Several are carried aboard the larger ships of the United States Interstellar Navy, and a few civilian ships carry one or two as well. The F-56 is armed with four missiles, four fifty-caliber machine guns, and one 60mm cannon on the underbelly.

Empis opaca
Male 6 to 9.5 mm, Female 6.8 to 10 mm.
Sometimes called Dance flies, these are predators of other insects, often tackling large prey, using their long, dagger-like snout. This species is distinguished from the very similar Empis tessellata by having red/brown thighs (E. tessellata has black thighs).
Males of E. opaca and E. tessellata present a 'gift' to the female, in the form of a dead insect, before mating takes place. Females will not mate with males who do not present a gift. What can I say?
Fairly common and widespread

SHIELD Dagger
length: 113 studs
Stealthily moving it's way through the stars, the Dagger runs covert operations that regular SHIELD agents should not be a part of.
All month I have had something like this in mind. Very much inspired by the enigmatic Pascal , and his SHIPs from last year (hence the wood floor shot)
Content inspired by one of our LUG members who passed away this past Spring. The pieces were from our BULK order, meant for him and he was a big fan of Agents of SHIELD. This one's for you Chirs!
The colourful larva is marked with red and yellow and has a tall 'hump' on the back, close to the head.
Poem.
Comma-like sandy coves.
Wave-washed, rounded rocks.
Rock-pools, teeming with life.
Dreamy vistas to the Sgurr of Eigg
and the familiar, undulating silhouette of Rum.
Dagger-like headlands pierce into the sunlit
beauty of the Hebridean Sea.
The silence is very loud and the calm, evening sunset
soothes any fevered brow......instantly.
Remote, very remote, but all the better for that.
Kentra Bay, Ardtoe, Ardnamurchan.
No words do this place justice.
Be there, see it, feel it.
Words will not suffice, but......
you will know somewhere
very, very special!
Blade: 6-1/2", Total: 12", 57-58 Rockwell, Handle: Kraton, Weight: 9ounce, Sheath: Nylon.
