It looks like there will be no gunships as a separate vehicle class, and a fighter with appropriate customizations will act as a gunship. And the TR Mosquito sure as hell looks the part!

I have to know what that NC vehicle is... My guess would be the Liberator (if bombers are empire-specific, then the name fits the NC like a glove), however the bomber was supposed to be a 2-seater, and this looks like it has 2 seats plus a rear turret with a canopy of its own. Might be an old concept render, though.
I can't say that I dig its design (the front reminds me of the Caldari Osprey from EVE) - it's much too verical and the canopies are too far apart for my taste (and for my militaristic side), however I won't be playing as the NC.

The Reaver belongs to NC now

And the Dyson belongs to the VS. Will they have cyclone powered tractor beams?

Does the vehicle model differ at all by faction, or is the paint job just changed?

Just to quell the skeptical out there -- when you say 100% in game, as is your wont, does that also correctly imply that it's a real-time render at a playable framerate?

It's funny how after 8 years you get used to something, and so this quote totally took awhile to sink in. I loved the Reaver...I played as NC....where some see coincidence, I see fate.

Now of course, I can't wait to see the VS fighter.

Silverbullet · 2011-09-29, 02:16 AM

Instead of a screenshot of the VS Fighter, the Dyson, can we get a video of it in flight?

Grimster · 2011-09-29, 02:50 AM

Damn it T-Ray my boss is going to slap you soon because I feel compelled to read all your posts through the VIP tracker.

Gotta catch them all!

On a side note very glad to see the high activity among the community and the fans by the developers.

Oh yeah. For all these years the Reaver has been sinonymous with ground-attack. And the new version looked so awesome

T-Ray can you vouch for the Dyson, that it's even more awesome looking?

Also, fingers crossed for aerial BEAM SPAM

Aractain · 2011-09-29, 04:00 AM

Maybe they could put some new aircraft designs in cashshop after launch?
