Well I have musical selection in mind for this segment of the video. The launching fighters would use the last 50 seconds of "Burn Around the Moon (Goodbye Independence)" by Trevor Rabin from the Armageddon Soundtrack. The intercepting patrol would use around 60 seconds of the same song...

You've got a point. No wonder you have that nick. :D But then my story doesn't take place during a war, it's peace, the Kilrathi are defeated. It's just pirates that are attacking the convoy. (Kilrathi pirates that is but nobody knows that... )

You forget that this is peacetime, on Earth. Space is a dangerous place, rife with pirates and Kilrathi. Unprotected civvy transports aren't safe. :D

Hey I'm still working on my script for the Raiders movie project. What is more visually appealing and works into WC well, having alert five fighters launch to rescue an ambushed convoy, or having a patrol be rerouted because they're the closest to save them? Input would be really...

What if the Confed transport was carrying say... cargo from an aerospace arms developer? Like would a US military cargo plane carry parts from Lockheed Martin? Or McDonnel Douglas (now Boeing) ?

Eric Alba, visual effects and main title effects producer of the WCM. :D From his website, http://www.ericalba.com. :D

Cool. I've made an Arrow before. :D Awesome plane.

"CF-..."?!?! They're CANADIAN!!! :D

It's a spacial distortion. The moment they step into their cockpits they shrink, making them BELIEVE their craft is larger than it is!

Where do you guys find these obscure pieces of information? :D

I came across this problem myself when I was designing my CG model of the Excalibur. The dimensions of the fighters are not even accurate either. In WC3 when Blair or Flash gets out of the Excal prototype, you can see the fighter is roughly the size of an Su-37 or so. Of course from the...

My Confed transport is almost done! This is the reason why I asked the question. :D Since the majority of you said "yes they can", I'm going to include some random cargo company names on the containers, and also the Tanfen Corp. logo from Raptor & Leeloo's fanfic series.

How 'bout when Spirit rams herself into the Confed station taken over by Kilrathi? :D No? Heheh

I don't think WC sensors work in that same manner though. :D As both sides use active sensors all the time. :) Which is plainly obvious.

Good point Bob. :D Napoleon: Yeah, all animation, modeling, texturing, basically everything that's CG in my movie will be done by me, that means the Excal is 100% mine. :D

Yeah like Star Trek, nobody knows how they detect things, they just do. :D

I wonder how radar works in Wing Commander. Or maybe they call it radar but it's lidar.

It's called not putting all your eggs in one basket. :D The reason they had all the protection around a huge convoy during WWI and WWII was because they really couldn't detect U-Boats without sonar, and sonar wasn't developed until what, like mid-WWII, and after not all ships had sonar...

But all my Excaliburs have Confed markings all over them. They ARE indeed Confederation. :p I give you the occular proof!

Okay further clarification is obviously needed here guys. The Excals escorting my convoy are ALSO operated by Confed, so here we have six Confed Excaliburs and three Confed Pelicans. Sorry for any confusion. :D Now, they are running a leg through the Tyr system on their way to who...
