That's why they're llamas.

Lightspeed: Well, I'd hate to rain on your parade, but I smote a Dragon with a Trebuchet in one o' those things. :) *Nod* Ok, so he was VERY far off and was dead-set at ramming me or something, but STILL. :p
Nothing sporting four Mekhus and lots and lots of other firecracker-thingies should be passed off as stupid so soon.
(Um, now, who's in love with the Sekhmet? :rolleyes: )
I can't go home again until I find a stone a rose a door.
Choo choo, and that is the truth.

Uh.... you can shoot ANY AI ship with ANY ship with missiles.

In FS2, one shot of missiles = one hit on AI ships.

We're talking about multiplayer here :)

I kind of think this mystery FS1 ship was the Sekmet. It did say in the description that it was a shivan design adapted by HOL engineers.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Maybe it's one of the bombers on the Volition Bombers desktop.  Or maybe....the government made them take it out because it too closely resembled one of thier super secret projects.  

Ok seriously, stupid as that sounds.....
A few years ago i saw a revell model for the SR-92 Aurora spy plane.  I went back a week later, none were left, never got more in, and you can't find it on Revell, Monogram, or MPC.  The government does deny the existence of that plane.  

so what do i think bomber 02 is?  I think it's sitting under the wrecked hades in the opening cutscene of fs2, squashed, and they thought...well since we are squashing a bomber that doesn't exist, let's put it under the hades, which was destroyed near no planet.  Mystery solved.
