A-108 "Harvester" heavy assault fighter

The first A-108 were commissioned more than forty years ago. Designed for the Colonial Navy as heavy a multi-role assault craft, the Harvester can engage capital ships in space as well as ground targets on planets. It is equipped with a medium blaster and a gimbaled double barrel rail gun to crack through any armour. A torpedo launcher bay and loadout hardpoints under the fuselage complete the offensive means. The independent thrust vectoring twin engines provide atypical maneouverability for this class of starfighters, enabling the A-108 to incorporate a mix of inertial gliding and vectored flight in their attack runs.
While fortunately no wars were raging for the last thirty years, the repeated deployment of A-108 squadrons to suppress secession endeavours of certain colonies has sparked a debate about the use and necessity of this type of offensive craft in peace times.

My entry for the Space Jam Starfighter Contest
I built this coming from the idea of incorporating massive swiveling thrusters at the back and the canopy pieces in the front. Everything in between just happened. My biggest and sturdiest build to date, the Harvester has a rigid Technic skeleton inside. The weight and leverage of the engines proved to be quite challenging for the kinematics and required locked turntables and rotation joints to support the forces.
The play features are:
- mountable drop pod with folded probe drone inside
- two fully poseable thrust vectoring engines
- wide angle 3D-swiveling double barrel rail gun
- retractable landing gear
- full-featured cockpit
