The Gargana is one of the heaviest bomber operating in the GTVA todya.  Nicknamed the 'walrus' by it's pilots, the Gargana is notorious for it's poor maneuverability.  However, it's massive firepower can easily destroy any enemies unfortunate enough to get in its path.

   

   

   

   

   

10 guns, plus 2 Browning/ Maxim on the turret. 3 missile banks, v. high capacity.  slow turning circle, medium cruising speed (60 m/s).  Max Eng speed is 100 m/s (if you set the power level to top), so it has a hop of escape from it's payload.  good armour too, seeing as it'll have to take a lot of hits.

Roughly 540 Polys

This is proabably the best tex. job I've done, and (for the first time) 90% of it is original stuff done by me      .  Best of all, if anything gets in you way, it's dead meat (even without launching missiles).

I have only two suggestions: replace the white by grey, and make the whole thing a bit darker.
anyway, it's an impressive ship

Hey Shrike, nice timing. Those engine flaps look a lot like the ones you have on the new Wasp class ships...

Wee bit of resemblence on the back end - same turret pos. as well i think.  That said, I never really saw this piccy before I finished the Gagana, so I can still claim total originality.

Almost done  

can't decide whether to have visisble thruster objects, and whether or not to keep the front turret....

Final length is 45m, though, making it the largest bomber in the GTVA (Boanerges 41m).

What about the Jotun? That was pretty big.

Your little bombers are no match for my Akira (newest model, version 4[courtesy of J Crappy Textures Ltd.]  ). It's just a bit over 60m long  

4 primaries, 3 secondary banks, 2 turrets.

...that's actually a nice design, if not a bit monotonous on those missile tubes.   Very - tank-ish. Reminds me of an Amun.
