Deviant Artist Conjures Up Thunderbolt Blueprints (April 30, 2015)

Artist HandofManos posted this stylish rendition of a Thunderbolt blueprint on DeviantArt. It's a slick five-view line art over a hexagon background. Check out his other awesome WC illustrations here.

An old design, or better said a blueprint of an already designed ship. The Thunderbolt as seen in Wing Commander III and IV.
A Terran heavy fighter its heavy ordnance made it even a threat to capital ships thanks to its capability to carry a torpedo. Even so it is less agile compared to the Hellcat or Arrow fighters

It's a good start certainly. It doesn't have the level of detail and cut-aways of the innards that WC's blueprints feature, yet (I hope).

The engineer in me is just dying to see components inside a Lead Sled. Still my second favorite heavy fighter just behind the Vampire.
