DESCRIPTION
The main role of the Starwolf Tactical Fighter is 'First Attack Wave Suppression (FAWS)'. An attacking force will typically launch multiple fighters to engage the capital ships offensive and defensive weapon systems. Starwolves are launched to prevent this 'first wave' of attacking fighters to reach the capital ships by greatly reducing their numbers before coming into in range. The remaining enemy fighters are more easily handled by the capital ships defense network.
As a secondary, attack role, the Starwolf can use it's Hedgehog system to overwhelm the shields of enemy capital class ships with a single burst of 16 missiles with a synchronized impact on a specific point. Only when friendly capital ships have trouble engaging enemy capital ships will Starwolves be deployed for this role. The problem with this tactic is that Starwolves will need to be heavily supported by fighters when attacking enemy ships head on.
Starwolves have atmospheric flight capabilities, however this uses considerably more fuel than spaceflight. A Starwolf is incapable of landing on a planet surface.
STANDARD OFFENSIVE WEAPON SYSTEMS LOADOUT
Two 'Muger MK7' 20 mm caliber chain guns
The guns fire a mix of armor piercing incendiary tracers and high explosive rounds at a rate of 2400 rounds per minute with a spool-up time of 0.5 seconds.
Two 'Kurstroski-S30' 30 mm caliber cannons
The cannons fire High Explosive Dual Purpose rounds at a rate of 350 rounds per minute.
Four 'Spagin HE5' High Explosive Missiles
Standard multi purpose fire-and-forget missiles with proximity detection systems.
HAAM16 'Hedgehog' Multimissile System
Multiple 'SPIKE' missiles fired simultaneously at up to 16 targets. The missiles are guided by the Hedgehog radar system. The high maneuverability of the missiles makes them capable of evading most countermeasures while guided by the Hedgehog. The system can also be used to overwhelm the shields of capital-class vessels.
DEFENSIVE SYSTEMS
Electronic warfare pod
The pod integrated in the lower wing is outfitted with many types of electronic warfare capabilities that include field jamming (producing a stealth bubble around the ship), ghosting (projecting false data) and tactical hacking (taking control of enemy ship systems, as well as some reconnaissance abilities.
Starburst
The starburst system ejects multiple decoys in different directions to confuse enemy guided weapon systems.

NOTES
This was originally planned as a more standard shaped fighter. But once I started work on the engines the ship grew more in width than it did in length. Also, the placeholder dual wings looked kind of cool, so I build on that. The problem was getting it to be stable enough to be handled, and sturdy enough to hold up the cockpit section. I had a blast building it because it turned out so different than I had initially planned. Please check out the other views in the Starwolf set as they explain more than I can tell you (especially the front view).
During the USMF's return to power as a major faction in the galactic stage, the need for newer and better ships became more and more apparent. The fallout of the Dimension Wars left numerous unexplored pockets of space in its wake and the need to quickly scout these area was of keen importance to the USMF.
Hyperius Industries, a company who had never partnered with the USMF before, found itself in need of clients after their previous big buyers, (the mysterious "Continuum"), were eradicated in the Dimension Wars. The AV-002 was the first of two major contributions to the USMF's evolving fleet.
The "Aquila" is a a long range scout/fighter craft. Though it has very little in the way of shielding, it makes up for it in raw speed. It's light frame only adds to its agility. This is the most heavily armed you'll see an "Aquila" class ship; four light laser cannons. Though options for additional armaments exist, the USMF prefers to leave the role of interceptors, attack ships, and heavy fighters to other crafts in the fleet. The Av-002 is also sold in the civilian market as well, where it enjoys a high degree of notoriety in professional space racing venues.
New pictures of an old MOC.
Built sometime before November 2004. (Minifig is newer)
Inspired by the Geonosian Fighter nose parts that were used in the build.
New addition to a Fighter Series of portraits for the Train Like a Pro Event.
2 light set up with large shoot thru umbrella as background and 44cm square reflector above and pointing directly down to the front of model; reflector out of camera in front of model to bounce light into shadows and light face.

A Single Fighter submission for Dog Fighter Single Contest by VitorFaria. Fighter is equipped with dual Direct Fusion Arrays, and Extra Armor Plating.
I wanted to build a WW2 style fighter plane for my Alternate World Nation, Esthia. The result was the Barugon!
The Barugon was a single seat fighter armed with two 20mm auto-cannons on the wings and a powerful 37mm engine mounted gun. Equipped with a 2700hp engine, it was extremely fast and agile. It could also carry ground attack rockets and bombs.
About the MOC:
I wanted to build a plane that somehow resembled the Yak-3 or the Mig-3 but with a better view for the pilot. The model has retractable landing gear as usual.
The name of the plane came from one of the Monsters of the Gamera franchise. :D

The Bristol Fighter is a sports car produced by Bristol Cars in small numbers from 2004 until the company suspended manufacturing in 2011. It is generally classed as a supercar.
The coupé body, which features gullwing doors, was designed by former Brabham Formula One engineer Max Boxstrom
Seen here at the avenue divers club, Bristol

This is not a new MOC sadly just a quick updated and revisit my old Fighter plane the FB12 FOXBAT FIGHTER Mark II. Found some old pictures and yet unpublished here.
Build way back in the late 2013 after I decided to upgraded the Foxbat Mark I which i thought could do better in term of design. Fold out gun cannon, landing gear, flap wing, hidden missiles below bay and LED light on the cockpit. One of the first MOC plane i did attempt to make with LED light!
This Foxbat was finally upgraded in2014. Another MOC version of it? Mark III? Maybe ;) Let me know what do you think?
FUN FACTS: Oh I did uploaded this Foxbat MOC in LEGOIdeas but couldn’t even make it to a thousand but i got a lot of good feedbacks and i do appreciated it. My MOC is one of kind.
The LB7 Talon is a light bomber piloted by two. It is equipped with a large anti cruiser cannon, two small missile pods, a shield generator, and countermeasures. This was incredibly difficult to photograph.
For the Contest AssembleTheFleet2020
Simon Liu somehow you caught me.
Star wars is not a topic that I have a lot of knowledge about.
But who cares, they're spaceships.
I chose the good old republic with the classic Venator, and a few Jedi fighters with V-Wing fighter support.
The Venator is 30.5 studs long, the fighter ... well as small as it was possible for me.
I hope you all like my contribution.
Quan la quantitat regna per sobre la qualitat.
Gràcies, EudaldCJ pel títol!
================
When quantity reigns over quality.
The Spanish term 'vino peleón' (which colud be translated to fighter or quarrelsome wine) refers to the rough tasting, low qualilty cheap wine usually sold in large quantities.
Thanks, EudaldCJ for the title!
Después de todo el robo y el engaño
Probablemente piensas que tengo resentimiento hacia ti
Pero, oh no, estás equivocado
Porque si no fuera por todo lo que intentaste hacer
Yo no sabría todo lo capaz que soy de reponerme
Así que quiero decir gracias
Porque me hace mucho más fuerte
Me hace trabajar un poco más duro
Me hizo mucho más sabia
Así que gracias por hacerme una combatiente
An aquatic star fighter (or perhaps that should be starfish fighter).
It is intended to be the opposite of Don's Fighter. Instead of a very horizontal ship with a forward taper, I did a more vertical ship with a backward taper. Don had the cockpit near the rear, I moved it to the front. Lastly, his is designed for battling in the heights of space, mine is deigned for battling in the deepest oceans.
The USMF's elite pilots (those given the rank of Paladin) are a tough breed whose exploits are well known across the galaxy. Though qualified on a wide array of different craft (including ones not used by the USMF) most Paladins operate solo or in small groups; often great distances from allied bases or capital ships and thus have found great use in one-man fighter craft with FTL capability.
Miniaturizing FTL jump drives is a complex and costly process, but the benefits of a faster-than-light starfighter are numerous. For years, the USMF Paladins utilized the AX-20 "Katana" in this role. While a sturdy and fast ship, the Katana's production foundry was completely destroyed in the beginning stages of the Dimension Wars, and as such, it's service numbers dwindled further from the already small amount (in comparison to non-FTL fighters in the fleet).
Starcom Solution's answered the call for a "faster-than-light jack of all trades" by introducing the "Tekkan" (a name of Japanese origin inspired by its spiritual predecessor "Katana"). Starcom Solutions, living up to it's name, conquered the complex issue of small FTL jump drives with a unique solution; the drive systems were built at the capital ship shipyards on Saturn and then shipped to Neptune where quantum technology was used to shrink the units down to a smaller size.
Impressed by the originality of Starcom Solutions' engineering prowess, the USMF quickly requested a Tekkan for immediate trial runs. The first Tekkan produced (which was painted red with white markings as tribute to the Katana) passed its tests with flying colors (no pun intended) and was assigned to Paladin Kira Janus.
The Tekkan features twin heavy repeating lasers (much like those found on Hyperius Industries' "Scorpion"-class heavy fighter) and twin "Mjölnir"-type lightning cannons, which fire thunderous bolts of energy across great distances. These weapons pack quite the punch and require no ammunition, but require a great amount of charge time. If safety protocols are bypassed, the capacitor banks can overcharge and result in a devastating chain reaction.
