I fly one. I would love to see something new. The existing model is very out-of-place and just looks weird. What I would *like* to see is something that feels like it was taken into the shop by frustrated miners and heavily modified to use against Outcasts. So whereas the Lhotse is a low-cost efficient VHF, the Talon would be the hot-rod version, where the panels were removed to make room for additional engine components, the "shoulder" piece behind the cockpit was removed to make room for turret and 360 view, wings were lengthened to facilitate better turning, etc. It should look like the corporate VHF was taken to a workshop and stripped down, then rebuilt with black-market parts to produce a very muscular fighter with the sole intention of fighting pirates.

Lhotse: 11,900 hull
Talon: 10,800 hull

Lhotse: 6/0 guns turrets
Talon: 6/1 guns turrets (rear)

Lhotse: 11,400 @ 1,160 u/s power
Talon: 12,400 @ 1,270 u/s power

Lhotse: 1.17 max angular
Talon: 1.14 max angular

So basically remove some of the hull panel, put on hot-rod engine parts and a rear turret.

ps--I like the muscular look of this ship, the way the engine parts are hanging out, no idea where it's from, and I'm not asking for a clone of it, just like the way engine parts are hanging out like it is hot-rodded for speed and power

The Talon's current design is very popular among the members of the community. I doubt many would like to see a completely new model. Maybe something along the lines of the current one (like the one Jinx made).

A new model for the Talon would be nice. It's one of the worst remaining imports, IMO.

Certainly, as far as imports go, the Spatial is much better.

[Jamez]

Even just a re-texture would do, to be honest.

I don't know that its popular. I fly one because of its specs, and I find it distracting. The engine particle effects are nice, the rest of it is very very strange. It is two engines and a cockpit. Where is the cargo hold?? Yet it has 15 more tons capacity than the other IMG ship?? (actually that should be fixed as well) And it doesn't look anything like any of the other IMG ships... why would IMG start a whole new chassis line for this one ship model, and then sell them on the black market? Yeah its a game supposed to be fun not logical but its completely non-sensical all the way around and is fiction-breaking for me. AND I FLY ONE.

Okay so put twin engines on teh new model and keep the particle effect, remove some of the forward hull plating and have pipes sticking out, add a rear turret and go

When speaking about new textures: Wasn't it planned to make a new Wasupu (Stinger)?
