So did the Losna. But as I recall they were kind of buggy.

Deadly in a Shadow reminded me, the Prometheus Frame is also awesome. It's like the only opportunity you get to fly some epic fighter and destroy wave after wave of enemies.

I like flying the Vesuvius from Inferno--it just turns so freakin' fast you have to work to lose somebody in your crosshairs.
I didn't feel like putting anything here.  Then I did it anyway just to be contrary.

ZE PROMETHEUS FRAME OFF COURZE!

Comparing the Prometheus Frame to any other existent FS fighter is like comparing a flintlock musket to a modern artillery piece. One is descended from the other. In pretty much no other way are they related.

Where are they comparing? There is no comparing, I see people expressing their fondness of the ship.

[EDIT] just so this post contributes to the thread I would also like to express my admiration of the Cyrvan Aestival. Not as a fighter, but as a power source for weaponized QuantumDelta annoyance.

In a twisted fantasy, I'd love to take the Prometheus Frame against the Collossus or Sathanas.
Blame Blue Planet for my Freespace2 addiction.

I'd like to see the Hertak and their battle thralls fighting against shivans. And a Shivan Incursion into LSF space.

CROSSOVER!!!!

Re: Favourite non-canon fighters.
I admit, despite never having flown one I have a soft spot for the Jotun.

The Jotun is the Gargant of fighters. Too huge for common sense.

There was actually a mini-Jotun released, if you're too lazy to scale it down yourself.

Probably because it's a... bomber, not a fighter. :P

Re: Favourite non-canon fighters.
I meant fighters in general. As in, ships with a cockpit. Blame me for being a HW player before being a FS one.
