by Alfred Wong Scale: 1/48This reconnaissance version of the A-Wing starfighter is specially modified to perform high-speed reconnaissance and intelligence gathering. It is packed with sophisticated sensors and ECM equipment, and the Novaldex J-77 engines have been tweaked to get the maximum performance out of them. Sensor pods have replaced the laterally mounted laser cannons. For self-defense, the A-Wing Recon has a single laser cannon mounted in the starboard missile bay, with its own power generator so as not to draw power from the engines. The port missile bay remains unchanged, and is usually loaded with magnetic-pulse torpedoes. The 1/48 scale model is a converted SMT kit. |
