RED STAR FUTURE FIGHTER



In an alternate timestream, maybe the Soviet Empire storms on, battling dissidents, freedom lovers, and all-comers. Well, that’s the flavour of French designer Bruno Delussu’s tasty retro-future air-fighter.

The plane has no windows, as external info is presented to the pilot via 360-degree hi-def video displays. The tail unit looks fresh off a World War II-era German Messerschmitt jet, but no matter: it looks great, even if there’s no room for fuel tanks to supply that massive reaction system. Instead, the craft could use zero-point energy, sucking power from the fabric of space-time itself. Yes please.
