Subject: More forwarded from Scott Kellogg part 1
Organization: personal mailbox at The Next Challenge
Hello all,
I've been passing along the replies to Scott Kellogg's ship
designs (Vol 9 Issue 3) since he doesn't have net access. He's been
*VERY* busy again, and here are some new designs, ideas, and even a PC
he's come up with. I'm still reading through the material as I edit it
for my local mailer, (theres's ~100k worth of stuff), and it can only
handle a max of 250 lines per message. I'll break Scott's stuff into
parts and post them over the next several days to avoid a glut.
I'll recap in each message how to contact Scott, (we only get
together every 2-3 weeks), in case you REALLY need to reach him.
Please
feel free to reply either directly to him, or me.
Thanks, and I hope you find this of interest.

my having access to any comments to any designs or ideas
you might have but I would appreciate it

Lockheed YF-22 (TL9) Fighter/Interceptor
CraftID: Fighter/Interceptor, TL 9, MCr 18.50082
Hull: (113/281) Displacement=102.6 (wings can not fold) Weight
Unloaded=17.695, Loaded=30.7, Airframe=Hypersonic STOL,
Armor(Cockpit, Engines)=8
Power: 1.3885 Mw (drawn from engines), Endurance 2 hrs 57 min
Loco: (4/10)*2, High Performance TurboFan w/Afterburner,
Thrust=67.44 tons(87.44 w/AB), Cruise=1800kph,

Accom: Crew=(Pilot), Basic life support, sealed cockpit with
vac suit backup, Complex armored cockpit w/ rocket

Other: Fuel=11339 liters, Refeuling Probe
Remarks: The Lockheed version of the ATF, I have fudged the thrust
to get the correct cruise speed as predicted by Aviation Week. The
displacement value is that of the actual aircraft.
Note this is a pure air superiority fighter "Not a pound for air to
ground", But I can find no way to add the passive radar deception of
the real thing.

Remarks: Here it is, as best as I can guess. Some of it is a bit
fudged to get the performance right. Mind you I have no way to
calculate armor values except by weight. The book I got the data out
of said "Armour: Classified." If anyone out there has better data
than I do, I'd appreciate any corrections you can give.
