Apologies for some of the fuzzy pics here and don't know if was done before.

Had the time to open my copy of the low vis 1/48 VF-1a and take snaps of it with the regular 1/48 Supers.

Edit; Battroid to follow (depending on time).

Roy vs Isamu: who wins? :o

Interesting question.

If we assume that the missiles equipped on both fighters are of equivalent capabilities (destructive yields, maneuverability, target tracking, etc.), then I see the following factors that should be considered.

1.) The YF-22 was shown to be much faster than a VF-11, which I will assume to be at least as fast as a VF-1.  Assuming that the YF-19 is approximately as fast as the YF-22, then Isamu has a major speed advantage over Roy.

2.) The YF-19 has an arm shield equipped with a pin-point barrier.

3.) The YF-19 has a larger silhouette than the VF-1, which I see as being probably Ismau's biggest disadvantage.  The YF-19's larger profile could potentially even expose more area for Roy to shoot at than what the arm shield can cover at any particular moment.

This is assuming no super/strike parts or fast packs.

Regarding super/strike parts and fast packs, I think Roy's VF-1 gains more benefit from them than Ismau's YF-19 does. 

1.) VF-1 Super/Strike parts provide armor coverage that conceals more proportional surface area than YF-19's Fast Packs do.

2.) I have not seen any evidence that YF-19's Fast Packs contribute to its weapons load out. However, both VF-1's Super and Strike parts substantially increases the fighter's firepower.

3.) I do not believe the YF-19's Fast Packs contribute to the fighter's speed or maneuverability. However, the VF-1's Super/Strike parts do at least provide greater thrust.

If we assume that Isamu's YF-19 has a big performance advantage over Roy's VF-1 when both are not equipped with Fast Packs, or Super/Strike parts, then I would contend that when those accessories are included, Isamu's advantage would be cut down, possibly significantly. I am not sure that Roy would ever had an advantage of Isamu when it comes to their planes, with the exception of the size difference, but with Super/Strike parts and Fast Packs equipped, maybe it will be a close fight... maybe?

Wow that's quite an analysis of fictional pilots and aircraft. :lol:

Hee hee, thanks.

Writing that was a nice diversion from me writing a paper proposing how to decrease the processing time spent performing Screened Poisson Surface Reconstruction to generate a water-tight mesh from a point cloud as part of a Free Viewpoint Video production pipeline.

What good is all the high-tech weaponry if you can't fly while drunk? :drinks:
