    Nice one.
    Can you make the wings retractable to save space when it docks into a hangar?
    The wings fold against the hull to make it slimmer yes. My priority was to make it as maneuverable and high powered as possible considering the mass of the jump drive so the additional blocks for retractable wings or the top fin weren't spent. I will be making smaller fighter drones that save hangar space in the coming weeks yes.

    Cool.

    Been a little while since people have posted here I guess. Just came across this place and decided I'd put some stuff here.

    This is the space superiority fighter I've been using the most. It's got decent firepower for its size and a 3.8:1 thrust:mass ratio. Loads of fun to fly, great against pirates or enemy fighters.

    Legion "Minnow" Fighter Interceptor

    It has pretty weak shields (only 1881 capacity) and only the front around the cockpit has advanced armor, but because of its shape, if you're looking at whoever is shooting at you the majority of hits are going to splash against that armor. This is great against small fighter craft that don't have powerful weapons geared towards doing damage to hull.

    I'm still convinced it's ugly as sin, though. Not that that ever prevents me from employing them.

    might as well show these off before the overhaul

    AC-Starfighters Blue and Orange Variants:


    AC-Starscouter:

    closed wing position:


    the next too aren't technically fighters, but given the size they are considered under the Armada Class:
    AC-Starrunner BV:

    Shielded mode:


    and finally...
    AC-Starunner OV:


    that's all the combat fighter ships the OMEGA FLEET has to offer, for now...
