Calling all Stargate Fans!

In some episode they beamed up an entire skyscraper so a 302 shouldn't be a broblem at all. :P

Hi!

I really like what you guys are making up! Especially the little Fighter has a real cool design! (allthough i still think the cockpit is too large).

So this is my little Earth Defense Satellite (still in early stages). Its supposed to be about 30 meters high and 50 wide. Some Railguns will follow. still don´t know what i want them to look like.
Hope you like it. C&C always welcome.

A WIP for an earth 'Attack Helicopter' type fighter
crew of 2 to 3
4 miniguns
missiles (to be added) say 8 Hellfire 2's - 4 Sidewinders - 2 Mavericks
A chain gun or autocannon (to be added)
A 25mm OICW based weapon (AP or HE, I'm using it as a replacement for a grenade launcher)

Early stage WIP. Big honkin Fleet Carrier. Holds about 120 F-302's with Space in the main "side" hangars for ships around the size of an Al'Kesh. Think of it as a moving air base.

[Paveway]

I'd ditch the 25mm OCSW type weapon on that attack helo. Real world weapon in development, its gonna be more of a 40mm auto grenade launcher replacement more than anything. ie short range, much to short and low velocity for a respectable aircraft gun.

You'd want a gun with enough velocity and large shell to be able to attack from altitude, away from ground fire. The apache's ASP-30 30mm chaing gun would be good, as it is a weapon already in the inventory (and SG is a pesudeu based on real world military), or other similar weapons.

Well I hope so. I have some obligations I have to meet before I can animate any of my ships, so it may be a while. Plus the rendering would take ages, good thing I can use multiple comps for that.

Yes it is massive. Just to give you and idea how massive.....the hangars along the center hull all have hangar doors at the back of the hangar because they are all connected by a "hallway" so ships can be moved from one hangar to another without the need for beaming or launching. Just simply roll it down the hallway to it's new home. The reason for the insanely large side hangars is so that smaller non-intergalactic ships can be transported as needed without stressing them for the journey. Even though it could in theory carry up to 144 F-302's, 120 would be a full combat load, and 96 would be a standard load. That would leave space for other ships to land if needed. Those extra empty hangars would also make great cargo bays too.

I'm also considering adding docking clamps so that a ship too large to fit inside it could latch on and piggy back on the carrier. Great for when repairs are needed to those ships. The carrier would then be able to provide life support and power to the "docked" ship as well as ingree and egress to and fro. The only weakness of this ship is, that it's own weapons are rather limited, so it depends on the fighters to defend it.

Think of it as earth's response to the Wraith hive ship without the big guns. Can you imagine the load the Wraith would drop in their pants if they saw this beast coming at them? They have a hard enough time dealing with 4 of our fighters at one time, think what havoc 100 would do. With one of these carriers and a Daedelus class, the fighters could occupy the Wraith Darts and the Daedelus could then be free to unload it's nukes on the hive. Then it's kiss kiss bye bye Wraith.
