I am planning on releasing a mod with these fighter jet models in them, but i am having some trouble with the mod right now, so i dont know if i will release it. it will be an infinity mod, since bg and sidewinder mods are abundant. here are some renderings of the models i am considering on putting in it.

needs different angles, and better lighting. however, they look great from those renders.

these arent entirely my models. They are mostly my friend's models. and Veegie, i was thinkin og skinning master chief to look like tom cruise. i was watching top gun, and I thought " how cool would it be to have a top gun mode for halo!" notice i am using a Mig and an F-14, the same planes in the movie.

do you mean I should use a marine model? also, i found out what is wrong with the mod. there are too many triangles in the mig. could somebody tell me how to reduce the number of triangles in a model using 3ds max? also, here is a beautiful "Blender::Render". dont say i never did anything for you people.

Mod Edit: Resize your image.

remember this is a top gun mod. russian migs against us tomcats, like in the movie. ill see if my friend can make aircraft carrier models too. i would have used my friend YF-22 model, but it just doesnt fit the theme. im also currently rigging them both, cuz both models have swing-wing capability, so im rigging them so when you reach top speed, their wings sweep back. pretty neat, huh?

actualy jet physics are not so hard, i made some good ones once and as most of you have seen tiamat did a good job with his cs jet. helicopters probably are the hardest. i guess it's a neat idea i'd play it more for the humor (tom cruise biped :p) btw make sure you give proper credit to who made those planes

i really dont care what the theme is as long as it has cool jets, which i dont relaly think should be destroying the theme bcuz of the warthogs and other haloish stuff, but the swing wings will definately be cool

i always give credit where credit is due, and the models are partly mine. would u like to help me make tags caboose? i am new at making vehicle tags. you might also get the most credit as the jets are the most important part of the mod. I want this to be the mod of the month, and i am accepting submissions if you would like to be a part of it. also, i am having trouble in 3ds max with making the wings swing back and forth. if someone is good at rigging and that sort of stuff, i want your help badly.

Well if that's the case, definitely make the pilot Tom Cruise.
