Hiigaran Interceptor (Hinge mod)

Description
This is my Hiigaran Interceptor from homeworld 2. I suggest you go and check the game out: http://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/244160/

A tip before flying it.. Set thruster damage off or else it gets wasted pretty fast. This is more of a accurate build than functional. Maybe i will make one more in the future thats a bit more user friendly.

Trail effect, just for the photos: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=515790960&searchtext=Glow


From: http://homeworld.wikia.com/wiki/Interceptor_(Hiigaran)

The Interceptor is a fast, maneuverable and versatile craft designed for patrol, escort, and Capital Ship defense. The interceptor is the second smallest hull type that features offensive strike capabilities. Speed and maneuverability are maximized; thin armor plating covers only critical systems. The interceptor is especially feared by non-combat vessels, other strike craft, and resource operations. These fighters are winged, twin-engined, and appear to have a centerline weapon mount poking out the middle of a twin-pronged nose. They can be easily classified as Hiigaran by their gray-white-orange colouration. It has a rotary cannon very similar to those on the original Kushan Interceptor.

The Hiigaran Interceptor squadron contains five ships. Use the interceptors to attack any groups of fighters or lone scouts in your area. This will stop the enemy from using radar to plan an attack or ambush on your current position, and they will need to try multiple tactics including hyperspacing to a random location if they wish to find you. The interceptors and Bombers of the enemy are the opponent's main cover for frigate assaults, and will make it harder for any corvettes or frigates of your own to attack them, so send a few interceptor squadrons to dispatch of the enemy.

@Flygtur I have to ask why you made it the size you did. Was it just so you could show more details? Your Interceptor is 102 small blocks long (51 meters). The actual length of the Hiigaran interceptor was 17 units, which is the same as 17 meters. Or 34 small blocks. This is roughly a third the size of your build. It still looks great. Just figured I'd pass the numbers along if you ever decide to do another one.
