woha, once again you managed to stun me with your awesome models!
I have to admit that it's been quite a while since I checked the 3d forum but you have posted some really nice work here.

Actually, I am learning to understand the engine. For the future 'n stuff, can't hurt

This time, with background lore:
Quote
The ISSV Savior was a Jury-Rigged fighter bomber for interstellar travel, the last remaining flying thing on Eridani II, humanities largest colony, after the attack of an alien race that so far, haven't revealed their name, other than "the harbingers of our destruction".
Shortly before the attack, the FTL com-relays linking Eridani with the rest of the FTL-net have been destroyed by said Aliens.
The purpose of the ISSV was simple: Get to Earth, tell them what happened, come back with as many ships as possible.
The total of its propulsion systems are: 4 turbojet engines, 2 Scramjets, 4 solid fuel boosters, 1 liquid methane rocket booster, 6 turbo-ion drives and a single FTL drive core.

Very nice Rho. But you could have made the cockpit a little more futuristic imo. You have basically put scramjets on the back of a pretty regular plane, albeit a nicely modeled one.

But the basics of aerodynamics are still the same. Or in other words: The air flows the same way now as it will in 400 years and as it did 40 years ago.

But our understanding of how it flows is likely to change again and again. Technology constantly evolves.
