Passerine Industries would like to introduce their latest line of advanced space fighters. This new line of fighters continue the tradition of excellence Passerine Industries began over 1000 years ago.

Song Bird Fighter
Propulsion: Two Aves GX-9 Class B FLT ion engines and a set of Z-axis boosters.
Navigation/Targeting: Tyranni navigation & targeting AI. This provides the fighter with the capability of tracking up to 20 targets within a 1 LHr radius.
Armor/Shielding: Corvidae reactive armor.
Weapons: Two Plasma Launchers housed in the same casings as the engines, and utilize a patented energy delivery system to allow for rapid firing without loss of speed.

F51 Cardinal

The F51 is designed for all your fighter needs. In addition to the standard armaments it comes equipped with two arc laser emitters and twin magnetic coil guns. It is a well tuned dog fighter, carrier/freighter escort, and recon scout.

F32 Blue Jay

The F32 is the long range bomber of the Song Bird line. While still classified as a Class B fighter, it has an extended FTL range provided by the Aves LX160 FTL booster. The plasma launchers have been in enhanced for additional damage, and a ion cannon added to its beak. The sensory range is increased to a 5 LHr radius. The final and most important feature is the two Trilithium rockets.

F42 Raven
Image
The final model of the Song Bird line. The production cost of this fighter prohibits Passerine Industries from adding the F42 to its manufacturing plants. The F42 is an advanced stealth fighter. The beak has been extended to include a state of the art energy signature dampening system. To enable the F42 to strike from the shadows the plasma launchers have been fitted with muzzle flash inhibitor. Twin gluon beam emitters and a pair of arc lasers finish out the F42.

If you want, I have the MLCAD files for the Cardinal & Blue Jay. They are actually based on the Spyrius Saucer Scout(#6835).

Well, I may have to modify it alittle to suit my needs. I always prefer to get bigger and badder guns and all.

That's part of it. Actually Passerine is the order to which all song birds belong.

"Song bird" has something to do about "Surfing Bird".

I bet my LEGO collection on it.
