[MOC] Pirate Interstellar Tug

Recommended Posts

Pirate Interstellar Tug. You know, to catch other ships, board them, take all theirs credits end jump to hyperspace.

It's a heavily modified Republic tugboat. The ship has two upgraded tractor beam projectors on the front. It can actually drag other ships from hyperspace while they are flighing by. Then the crew uses the ion cannon and finally boards the prey. Oh, and the sublight engines are now pretty good too.

Upgraded engines with enought power to stop a Star Destroer. Or at least slow it down. Note the heat exhousts - two more ale located on the underside of the ship.

The underside. Note the twin turbolasers (with a blue piece on them). You can also see some very expancive warship-grade shielding - check the two large round deflector shield generators

The interior of the ship is quite detailed. Apart from a comfortable coatch, a holochess table, lots of different computers and other navigational systems it also has real ligts (old 9V system). The photos do not show it well but it's really cool to play with

There is an opening hatch for docking above this cabin with second sliding door for pressure-sealing.

You open the round one, dock in, then slide open the inner hatch.

I think it's my first post in the forum so if I did something wrong (don't know - too large pictures, wrong forum etc.) - please correct me. Also I apologise for my english an poor photos quality. The model has planty of play features (it took me one year to built it).

Thanks for watching!

It is quite amazing!! So much details and explanations of their purpose.

I would not think that the pirates would want to mess around with a ISD though. Haha! :)

You've done an incredible job with this ship. It looks like it could have shown up in one of the OT movies!
