The swiss Bazelard is a recent addition to growing swiss fleet. Like other ships, it is higly versalite, with a slight lean to durability. However, much like real Bazelard knife, its power is limited. When attacking heavier targets better ask for Hammer's missile support.

"Engines do not make usual growl. They scream like being endlessy tormented by the accelerator. But they are masochists!" Alan Ramirez, test pilot, after Bazelard's maiden flight.

"It is not participating in races not because it is armed and military; it would be too fast for cameras and thus not making any show." Isanagi Omary, HV presenter.

Bazelard is light, fast and manouverable. Stabilisers help its manouverability in atmospheric flight, while two powerful engines push the ship with deep, growling sound.

While it may look that Bazelard has lots of weaponary, it is more an illusion than real threat to enemy. Altough there are six cannons and two missile launchers, the power system is too weak to give enough energy for guns to shoot quickly. Thus, the fighter deals rather single powerful blows instead of regular laser-spray attack.

Aerodynamic shaper really help in atmosphere. Also, notice landing gear. While simplistic, and without cover when folded, it works well enough.

...wondered where the Swiss Cross is?

Front cannons and a bit of greebling. Also, if you look carefully, you'll find front landing gear.

Engines are not covered with armour to make their cooling easier; however they may be easy target in a dogfight. Keeping shields on high levels is essential.

A common windshield installed in not-so common way. I really like how it turned out; it "continues" the nose, and nicely falls into the hull.

Sorry for too-much-light here, but it was the only way to make the cockpit details visible. Not very roomy, but still much bigger than in Hammer fighter.

Model's dirability is seriously limited. While main structure is based on twin-linked technic beams, nose and stabilisers are rather fragile.

I've always liked wedge-shaped ships.
