The Hybrid Assault Craft 4a "Raptor" is the newest and most advanced multi-purpose military vehicle in service to the Imperial Air Force. Powered by two fusion thruster engines, the Raptor can easily make trans-atmospheric flights and fight battles in space before descending to the airspace above targets on the planet below. On the surface, the pilot can activate the fighter's transformation mode, morphing it into a durable, steady, deadly assault mech. The wings fold back to provide a thick back plating, the split-nose of the craft folds down to provide a blast shield for the front, and the rounded bottom hull of the craft transforms into a pair of massive legs.

Through sacrificing speed, the Raptor can accommodate much heavier hull armor, making it on par with the light-medium mechs of other factions. The four massive CQC4a-AutoCannons mounted on the front provide devastating close-range fire to enemy targets, and the twin 100mm Rapid-Cycling AutoGuns assist the assault craft in destroying lighter targets at medium distances. The Raptor stands at roughly 24 feet in its assault position, allowing it to fire into second and third story buildings when fighting in the streets.

Awwwesomeee. Brilliant idea, Kojan!

I love it! It's a great design. That is one serious piece of equipment!

Awesome! Very ingenious design and really really cool backgrounds! I need to find out where you get all these from! It's just awesome!!! And probably one of the best/most realistic morphing vehicles/fighters I've ever seen.

Thanks for the nice comments, everyone! I'd say that the Raptor is probably one of the pickiest models I've made, as all of the moving parts don't always like to work in LDD.

Kewl..... I like the transforming design... that is a serious multi role vehicle!

My ONE complaint is the scale of the pilot in the second picture compared to the people and vehicles right next to the vehicle... that guy must be all of nine inches tall...

Yeah, I was having a big issue with that, but I settled with it. I tried changing everything else, but it looked even stranger.

Very well done, Kojan.

Daaaaaaw... issa cute widdle fighter.

Hey, when it transforms into a mech mid-air to come crashing down on the streets below and start blowing things up, the sarcastic tone is immediately replaced by an awe-inspired one.

Afterwards, it's a cute widdle mech.
