[Fighter Blueprint] Hiigaran Concept Interceptor [Homeworld 2]

Description
This fighter is based on a piece of official concept art for Homeworld 2 by J. Aaron Kambeitz. It is an early, unused design for the Hiigaran Interceptor. The number 15 is painted on the side of the hull. This number is a recurring element in a lot of Hiigaran concept art that may refer to the Hiigaran 15th Fleet, which was the protagonist faction in the early "Dust Wars" drafts of Homeworld 2's story,

This build is exactly 200 blocks. I elected to use the same gray, trinium engines that I used for my earlier build of the Hiigaran Interceptor, as the ship's engines are not visible in the original piece of artwork.

Screenshots (besides the auto-generated preview image) show fighters at true scale - when you use this blueprint to produce fighters, that's the level of detail you can expect from the final product.

This ship is intended for use as a fighter blueprint, as it lacks the critical ship components necessary for player control.

Suggested weapons: Chaingun

Yeah Reunion one was looking MUCH better than TC and AP ones.

Before I settled on the Tyr, I briefly considered a Reunion:XTM Valhalla. I always liked it a lot more than the TC one. I have some fond memories of the Terran Saitama M1+ as well (from X-Tra Ships, I think).

From X-rearm if i rember. Or Rebalance... Thouse ships are really amazing. Especially Fighters :D.

Oh wow, I hadn't even considered those. Kha'ak capitals were pretty much off my radar, but those might make me take another look.

I means modded Advenced ones... Because well they looks much better.

I don't really know which one you should choose.
I would love to see EvE Online ship made by you but already there is quiet few of them.
Hm... What about maybe Kha'Ak vessels?

In all honesty, I've not decided on my next big Homeworld build yet. I have several things planned for X3, but besides an eventual Multi-Beam Frigate (waiting on coaxials for ion cannons), I'm not sure where I want to go next with Homeworld capital ships. I've been considering some of the deeper cuts - there are some talented builders already doing Hiigaran and Vaygr ships, so I've been kind of shying away from those ideas.

A Bentusi Tradeship would be cool, but I don't want to touch anything quite that round for a while (the Kadeshi Mothership took forever). The two ships that I was initially kicking around ideas for were the Turanic Raider attack carrier and the Kuun-Lan. If I did the Kuun-Lan, it would be the early-game mining version and then I'd come back to it after the coaxial weapon update with a full set of modules and a working siege cannon.

That would take me weeks - but it would be spectacular.

There's quite a few other unused fighter designs from Homeworld concept art. With how well-received this one was, I might have to do a few more. There's an interesting early Vaygr interceptor concept that looks doable.
