[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Me, I'm convinced the Federation fighter is between 15 and 20 meters of length (scaling from the cockpit window)... That would allow it to be packed aboard an Akira in some quantity! Oh, that and the wing-fold feature. The wings simply MUST fold at the seam next to the wing cannon, so that the contraption can land on level ground. A "courier" should indeed be fast, but we don't really have any reason to think that the fighters or the Peregrines would be especially fast. I mean, the Peregrine couldn't even outrun a Runabout! Failing that, I'd hope for some other courierlike attributes, such as a comfortable passenger space (passengers and priority physical cargo being far more practical loads for a space courier than abstract information). Heck, the fighter doesn't even seem to have a proper doorway! (Not that any of the other designs do, for that matter...) Timo Saloniemi P.S. "Quantum" torpedoes in the script? Is this where the term really originates? [/QB][/QUOTE]
