RX-SROPC-87 Archangel

RX-SROPC-87 Archangel by vìnn.
The RX-SROPC-87 “Archangel”, or more commonly known as “Thunder Skirt”, due to the shape of its engine foils, is a short range orbital patrol craft. It is used in high orbit battles, and is proficient in a dogfight. Armed with one Vulcan cannon, two beam cannons, and four rockets, it has been proven capable at taking down enemy craft with relative ease. However, it is hardly useful at all in deep space, where the pull of gravity is little or none. The craft is incredibly maneuverable and is able to fly in any direction and change its vector on a dime. After the T’indari war, the craft was used less and less until it was only being used to protect small backwater planets and colonies. It still conducts its missions with proficiency.

Really enjoyed this. The color combo and engine arrangement reminds me of an old creation of mine . I love the shapes here and really enjoy the busyness of this MOC. Strong work.

This is cool, because it actually looks like a plausible vessel. Very well done.

This looks very R-type to me-- never a bad thing. I'm a huge fan of the series, and the overall shape (as well as the serial designation starting with R) instantly reminds me of it's awesomeness. Great work.
