[QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [qb] That's the bracket I'm happy with, too. With wing-fold and good (auto-?) piloting, those babies will fit through the Akira bow doors. :) [/qb][/QUOTE]Well . . . I have to confess that I'm averse to the folding wing idea. Even at 18 meters long, the wings are sufficiently thick to preclude easy movement, and there is no external evidence of a hinge (like one finds on the Intrepid). Granted, there are various technobabble and real-life-futuretech possibilities, but I don't see how they could apply on this particular bird. [QUOTE]Fantastic image, that one![/QUOTE]They did great work in that episode. When Hudson fires on Sisko's runabout to escape the tractor beam, you can see itty bitty Sisko and itty bitty Dukat beside him. It blew my effin' mind. [QUOTE]Could we get another one to show where exactly the torpedo comes from, perhaps?[/QUOTE]Well, yeah, but it won't do much good. The torpedo firing shot is a wide one, and all that can really be discerned thanks to the glow of firing is that they come from the nose region. In the same sequence, Hudson's fighter takes a hit to the ventral doohickey they'd fired phasers from earlier ([URL=http://www.st-v-sw.net/images/Trek/Special/smallships/DSN2-themaquisp2-peregrinebottpha.jpg]see here[/URL]), which knocks out torpedoes. This may be suggesting that is some sort of weapons module. [QUOTE]And of the wing cannon firing? Pretty please?[/QUOTE][IMG]http://www.st-v-sw.net/images/Trek/Special/smallships/DSN2-maquis2-fighterpha.jpg[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
