Queadlunn-Rau Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 (edited) I know , but i couldn't find any apropiate place to put this at. This is a model, a 1:1 scale model, but not made as a toy from plastic/metal. Can't go into the other fiction thread, not a game or convention, so i stuck it here. SO anyways, it can't be that hard to build a real SDF, the only exception is the part about it going into space. SSo until we do have a rocket/?? populsion system to carry it into space, why not make it into a one big boat. Have it built in cruiser mode. 2 aircraft carriers on the side for supply and defense. Command center is the same as the SDF. Have bulkheads line the whole innards of the ship, throught the booms. Basically, ts a sea station, that they can use for sea minin/exploration, etc. And heck, since its airtight (have to make it airtight, who knows, it may go into space) , it can weather any storm or hurricane that may come along while at sea. So thats my idea Edited June 11, 2004 by Queadlunn-Rau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mule Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Great idea! I've been looking for a place to store my 1:1 VF-1 model squadron. The wife is getting a little tired of having them being parked in the yard. Air tight doesn't mean hurricane proof. A ziplock bag is air tight, but I wouldn't want to sit out a storm in one or take it into space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanpang Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 if the world is united under one single govt, ast least we have a slight chance to built it. If not it would take too much money, resources for one country to absorb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
