Anyone seen this ship?

This is one of the ships from the Freelancer Intro video and I know that it has been put into one of the bazillion mods for Freelancer out there. Anyone know which one it might be in???

ive never seen this ship before in my life

I built a working model of it and use it in game. This one is done in a new texture along with some added features. This is the A10165E "Wraith".
My version of the Sleeper Ship Escort.

Some more of the intro ships would be interesting

Here is a variation of one of the Coalition fighters.
This particular model is flyable (although this shot is from MS)


I've been viewing the intro and have been trying to replicate some of the other capitals/cruisers/gunships.

This Ship?,

Here
. If so...It's in Epsilon Mod.. and is as close to that ship as I could get it.. We called it the Mantis.. and gave it to the Junkers.. If I recall correctly they use it extensively in Sigma 13..

Sorry it's not a better shot but apart from some views in milkshape it's all I could find.

you ppl exaggerated the length and curl of the cockpit...and the scale of certain parts..no offence

It is all in the artists interpretation of what they are looking at. I think they all look sweet.

@ Harrier:
Hey man, did you do that ship for the Epsilon Mod? (awsome rendering! )
The one I posted up earlier is a third generation rendering where the second one had "ram-jets" for engines...but didn't really look like a close match.
I always wondered why I didn't see more of those ships (including Coalition ships) in the standard game.

@ Rankor,

Yes.. and thanks.. I appreciate it.. If I recall correctly it's on Rochester base..I looked at the intro video - ohh only about a thousand times - trying to get the detail right.You get a pretty good look at it as it rotates and flys away, but its gone pretty fast.. I tried to get the profile as near the ship as possible.. I was very happy with the result.. the textures are my own make - a sort of weathered tarnished bronze.

If you want, I'll put up a couple of milkshape views.

At the time I looked at doing some of the larger ships although you only get a very brief look at them - just prior to the section with the alliance fighter - but I never seemed to get around to it..

@ Harrier
If you would so indulge me...I would love to see those milkshape views you have.
Rochester eh? Seems like a good place for it. Kind of fitting for those odd fellas.
What I've done with this particular model gave it a really nasty disposition with a very fast strafe and a max bank angle of 90. Since I mounted only two guns on it, I gave it capacity to mount class 10's. So effectively, it's a light fighter with a nasty punch. Would you believe that before I named it A10165 Wraith...I was also calling it the "Mantis" ?

Now that I'm temporarily on that subject...I've always thought less guns and equipment was better anyway. (getting off soap box now)

@ Lancerlover
Yeah...that "Duke" has a faint resemblance to bounty hunter ships, doesn't it.
