I've completed my little fleet with the SA-43, the SA-43-X (that I've created for my Fanon) and the Standard-Chigfighter. (It's not my intention yet, to build also the Stealth-Chigighter of "Chiggy von Richthofen" - maybe sometimes...)

In my Fanon the SA-43-X has two heavy energy-cannons and two medium energy-cannons, based on sto... located Chig-Technology that AEROTECH has assimilated. The firepower of the SA-43-X equates 80-82 percent of the Stealth-Chigfigters firepower. But the Terrans have not much time to test the new fighters before the Chigs will attack them with a complete squad of their new fighters...

I've made also a scene with my Chig-Carrier and my new Chigfighter.
very nice watching with interest, I always liked how the cockpit would attach to the fuselage.. it was a cool idea

It looks really cool - but on the other side it's a problem for a FF-writer, like me, to find a nearly logical reason for it.

This system needs more space on the carrier as necessary. I've often tried to imagine, on which way the cockpits of the Hammerheads are transported through the carrier (especially to the lower hangars) and in some cases spin around into the right position. Because the cockpits are too close together (and/or in the wrong position) to have all a fighter directly under it.

For me, it's necessary to tell the people in a Fan-Fiction-Story how things work (and why) and that's sometimes not very easy...

Case in point about area size.

I never did give that much thought, even as to why they needed the separation.

I'm also not - until I've written the first SPACE 2064 Fan-Fiction Episode.
