SA-43 Hammerhead fighter
A new fighter from mikemckeon007--- it must be a Viper or a Cylon Raider, you say? Sorry, friend, guess again.
Back in the days before Battlestar Galactica, when Captain Sisko of Deep Space Nine was still a commander, before Farscape and Firefly and all those other lovely, gritty, "dark" science fiction dramas, there was a show. It was awesome. It was set in the near future aboard a bad-ass battleship of the stars named the Saratoga. And it was called Space: Above and Beyond.
Now, for those of you young'uns who have never heard of this series before, your appreciation of this model of the SA-43 Hammerhead fighter used by the Marine pilots in that series is probably going to be limited. It is the strongest recommendation that you had best go and find out what this bad bird is all about by watching S:AAB from start to finish.
For those of you who remember S:AAB, you'll no doubt get quite a kick out of seeing the Hammerhead in action in your A2 build just as soon as you can press the "download now!" button. Once again, it is the strongest recommendation that you had best do that. Right now.
Seriously awesome work from mikemckeon007 here. Hopefully some Chig fighters and maybe the Saratoga herself might follow?
