An early design of a fighter for the young G.A.I.A., codenamed "Anaconda". It was produced by the german enterprise of "RMC Aeronautics" under the notation of "RMC Ae Vpr-75a". A very powerful and agile fighter, when used in space. In an atmosphere it felt more like flying bricks. Oh wait! It >IS< just a bunch flying bricks!! ;-P ENJOY
About this creation
Generic overview.
Top front and top rear view.
Nose- and rear section. (The wings needed to be this thick, in order to protect the huge fuel tanks from getting damaged during battles.)
Engine close-up, the small cones besides the upper engine are for droppoing countermeasures agains incoming missile threats.
Upper plasma cannon. The black plasma conduit, transporting plasma directly from the reactor to the cannon, can be see here. It was need to be installed externally, because of the sensitive electronics inside the tail.
One of the two main body plasma cannons. Here, the plasma is transported internally to the base of the cannon, compressed and polarised there and then accelerated by magnetic coils inside the barrel.

Jet intakes for flight in atmosphere.

O.k. the first intake pic turned out a little dark, but I´m too lazy to reshoot it.
Yes this thing can fly in an atmosphere (although it wasn´t primarily built for that purpose)
Approaching the cockpit.
"Hello! Come on, let´s have a closer look at the cockpit!"
Controls! I really like how the dashboard turned out. The cockpit with its huge glass canopy, for a great view at what is going on is my personal favourite part of this MOC.

BONUS PIC: This beautiful fighter above our still beautiful planet! I don´t know how they managed to keep it alive.
* Any similarities with a BSG Viper are totally coincidental and were not intended by the creator of this MOC. ;-P Duh!

Quoting El Barto !
Didn't want to rebadge this one and put it in the BSG group? Modified MarkVII? Maybe like a Colonial Blue Angels squad? Fly over pyramid games and such? Go Bucks! Sorry for the laaaaate answer. I think I´m going to keep this as it is, since I´ve still got a 'G.A.I.A. Forgotten Worlds' version of this fighter that still needs to be photographed and posted. But, maybe I´m going to redo the design and slightly modify it, so that it could be a Viper MK VI (e.g.)! |

Fighters like this are why I am so sad to have all my legos in storage!
Thanks heaps, mate. Come on, make yourself happy and take your LEGOs out from storage and start building. Don´t miss the fun you can have with them! |

This fighter came out exceptionally well. The bulkiness makes it more believable as a deep space fighter! This little lady just goes to show that leftovers, when properly prepared, can be just as scrumptous as any other piece of eye candy today! It is good to hear that you like it. For some parts I had to search like forever in order to get them. I´ve got quite a not so small number of leftovers in my boxes, but it is mostly one certain part you can´t find to make the MOC look right. Anyway, it feels good that you didn´t call for Tabasco! Cheers |

Hehe, the Viper as it should have been! What a frkn beauty! This is a sublime build, sleek, solid looking, I love the fighter style double canopy, cocpit is smooth as, love the wheels too. What's not to love. THe pic with earth and just some of the side aspect of the fighter is perfect.
MAte, you have just inspired me to try another fighter, you are pushing the envelope of awesome here, great backstory also, ancient GAIA vessels are so cool, and the Germans were really dishing out some top notch fighters back in the day, perhaps the best...
Hi Parrington. I´m feeling honoured for having inspired you, thanks heaps for that! As for the new fighter, go for it! You have a hand for these and they always look exceptional. I´m also thinking about a post-apoc version of the "Anaconda" for the "Forgotten Worlds". This was one reason why I´ve built this one. Cheers. ~Marc
P.S.: Have you read my last post in the Forgotten Worlds? One night I felt a little inspired! |

Quoting Histo Sci
This is awesome! I love how you used so many large pieces to give it a sleek and spacey look. Clean and effective. Reminds me of the Mark II Viper from Battlestar Galactica.
Thanks guys, in fact, I really wanted it to look viperish. The reason why I used so many large pieces is simply due to the fact that had nothing else left. :-) But, I´m fully content with the result!! |

Awesome! I couldn't imagine how anyone would ever see any BSG influence in this MOC, wink wink, nudge nudge. Nice work! |
