Hello there!

This sort of grew out of the other thread regarding the Akira Class Fighter Interceptor, and some people here suggested giving it the traditional shark's teeth on the side view like the old planes from WWII and such.

So here I've done up some based on the Shuriken Starfighter/Interceptor.

First off, the Starfleet Equivalent of the US Navy's Blue Angels

Here's the Royal Air Force's Equivalent, the RAF Red Arrow demonstration squadron. Only this is Starfleet Check out the modified RAF emblem on the left wing.

This type of striped design with a log of exposed 'metal' was common in post-WWII fighter jets, especially the kind used in the Korean war and thereabouts.

Named her after my mom [Smile]

I know the first thing you'll say is that camouflage is useless in the 24th Century, but who cares? Maybe it's a special type of Trekky camouflage. And the enemy having trouble picking you up visually can't hurt

Hope you guys enjoy these [Smile]

Great work. [Wink]

May be you could make one that is one of the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds. That would be cool. I am totally impressed with your work. [Wink]

The black one is sweet. Maybe it's some kind of sensor reflective coating that makes it hard to target.
