OVERVIEW:
The R-103 Delphinus III is the final 'expression' of Neucom's Famed R-100 line. Combining the latest aviation technologies, including the COFFIN System, Pulse Laser Weaponry with a Radically Sleek, multi-winged design and astounding thrust-to-weight ratio and Top Speed; the Delphinus III is Neucom's Crown Jewel of its Aviation Designs.

In Mid-2040 the Delphinus III left its test phases, the Production line and entered combat. The R-103 saw combat very quickly and out preformed almost every aircraft on the battlefield at that time. Neucom's Female Ace (Cynthia Fitzgerald) quickly switched from her R-102 to the R-103 in order to maintain her combat edge. The Ouroboros also deployed their own R-103 models for their combat operations as well. Though, their main role was usually to escort the UI-4053, Ouroboros Headquarters.

I have to say that the R-103 could (in real life) give the F-22 and Su-37 a run for thier money when it comes to Pulling Stunts and Speed.

[PhantomPhanatic]

Is the first pic a render? That looks really cool. Wish I had time to do such quality work with Blender.....

Anyway, here's another wallpaper sized image....strangely, that's not what I intended them to be, they were just standard screenshots!

So here's an AutoCAD layout of the R-103, I can do several more, but not right away....this was kind of just a proof of concept. For now I need to be focusing on school, but at least I know I have the means to do this....

[Ribbon-Blue]

Wow. Impressive. I'll add this to the article.

[Scarface tfs]

Thats nice Japp, and welcome to the Electrosphere!

[Heinkel]

oops, seems like most of the pics are broken

[Jetfreak]

It's nice to have lots of data about the 103, it's my all time fave jet in AC

[Ribbon-Rena]

We live for these stuff, jetfreak..

[kuroi tsubasa]

I'll never really understand why in the Japanese AC3, this plane is just so damn perfect.

Yet in American/European/Australian versions, this thing is basically a sleek Foxhound. Just a crapload of speed and crap mobility. =/

[Scarface tfs]

Its mobility isn't that bad. But I have to agree its way too fast. But once you can fly it well, it isn't a problem.
