Fight against the forces of Andross with your own Great Fox battleship!

Great Fox is a flyable rocket-plane. She does not have forward landing gear so instead you will have to use the

jet system to hover the front end as you taxi down the runway. She flys under her own power without VTOL engine jet

assist once you clear 100m/s. She cannot make orbit on her own, a booster assist system is required (which is currently

still in development). 

She will seat 36 kerbals with 2 additional exterior seats, her large guns also act as personal rocket vehicles.

There are countless docking ports of all sizes located all around the ship and inside the 3 cargo bays. 

 

Please don't let Andross take over Corneria, you are our only hope!

Awesome! Can't wait to beat up other Kerbals for no apparent reason!

We should petition for Jebediah to be a new entry character for Smash Bro's next game. I mean, Sonic got a shot, Sega and Nintendo were rivals and he's in their game! (granted we know the circumstances why but the argument still holds water!)

His recovery has to be his EVA pack. Literally has to.

One of us should make a petition for Jeb to be in Sm5sh.

But Kerbs are a peace-loving people. The idea of a brawl must be anathema to them.

But it's Jeb we're talking about here.

A minor nitpick, but the Mk. 3 parts at the bow of the ship just look oversized and out of place to me. I would have used the Mk. 2 cockpit and a crew cabin myself. It seems to me they'd fit more in line with the lines and the shape of the Great Fox, or maybe I would have done something custom with the wing pieces... I personally have never attempted to do a replica of the Great Fox yet, except in my high school computer animation class...

Everything else looks great though!!

Krikey, that's a hell of a thing! I'm amazed you got it off the ground, kudos for that! And it really does look like the replicated craft too.

I agree, MK2 sort of fit the bill a bit better, in fact i started with the MK2 cockpit. My early attempts were composed of many parts and it kept exploding under thrust. I went with MK3 to keep the part count down and for simplicity sake.

Ahhh I see. As my mother, Mrs. Kerman, always used to say, "Keep it simple, stupid!!"
