IMPORTANT: This aircraft and design belongs to BlueLone Wolf, and NOT me.

United Defense Mechanics F-1 “Grosses Messer”
Role: Multipurpose fighter/bomber
Crew: 1
Length: 14.4m
Wingspan: 13.2m
Height: 4.2m
Engine and Power system: United Defense Mechanics Engine Division HFC-22E Hydrogen fuel cell powered engine with 65,000lbs of thrust-powered by 16 replaceable hydrogen ion fuel cells, providing ion-magnetic thrust without chemical fuel. The other 6 cells are for the weapons arrays and other systems.
Maximum atmospheric speed: Mach 4.5
Ceiling: None (not atmosphere limited)

Armament:
4-20mm hydrogen plasma-fed air-cooled directed energy weapon (lasers, for lack of a better term), but they are liquid helium cooled in space environments.
2 racks for miscellaneous weapons, including rockets, torpedoes, missiles, and bombs.
*The fighter itself is made of a composite alloy strong enough to shred through other metals, thus making it a flying blade. This maneuver, however, is not recommended to the inexperienced.

Advantages:
The Grosses Messer is a fast and agile fighter craft, easily able to out-turn or out-run most missiles or opponents. It is a multi-role fighter, able to take up missions as an interceptor or light bomber. The overpowered engine allows the fighter to exit the atmosphere of almost any planet on its own power, and its range allows for longer missions. The strength of its composite alloy body and internal airframe make the plane hideously hard to shoot down, and allow it to literally cut through other fighters.

Disadvantages:

While the four 20mm lasers are powerful, they are fairly weak compared to many other weapons of fighters in the same class. The plane also tests the limits of its pilot, who has to have great stamina and control in order to properly execute high-speed maneuvers in this fighter. The secondary armament load is light, as this fighter is designed for accuracy, precision, speed, and maneuverability over raw power.

The preceding was written by Blue, as well, In fact, I used his template for the other two fighters.

It was sort of modeled off of the Grumman X-29, to be more precise.

Cool. A couple of things that weren't in my original thought, but good.

Heah, I noticed you had the guns on the wingtips AFTER I'd colored it. I also added the registration numbers to all three, just for a little more authenticity. I should probably ask you about a couple modifications, be they temporary, for BTTF: RR Pt. II

Yeah, what Blue said.

Go ahead and fire away.

Well, the thing is, You ripped some of the armor after slicing through a fighter. After replacing the armor, Slippy wanted to install some passive shields and Gee-diffusers. Apparently, the armor on Arwings is Similar, but the way you've built the GM makes it a flying blade, and the Star Fox ship not...unless you hit something while rolling. (According to Command)

So, Blue's response?

Blue would be the one touching anything on his fighter, but he'd sure scavenge anything that he could. It might end up being a mess, but it sure as hell would fly.

Just make the note that Blue's already thinking ahead to the next fighter, but make him secretive about it.

I'm sure he'll pick up some ideas for the "next one."
