IAE Taurus Holomodel

I... I think it's the Aquila?

it's the Aquila cockpit:

Its the standard size, not double length, cargo bay:

it's the Parasite Ship bay (minus the Merlin):

The only original Taurus Model feature appears to be the circular crew lift, which does not exist on any Connie currently they are all rectangles:

Anyone know what's going on with this Taurus? From the looks of this model it's just the Aquila minus the snub ship?

I'm doubting this will be the model we see

It is the mark III Aquila model, just like invictus. Notice it has Mk.3 on the VTOL ending covers where you show the round crew elevator?

You have a very sharp eye! I think that they just rushed a lot of stuff for the convention...hopefully all the time they saved went into bringing us some great features in 3.12...

Ahh, many thanks that does explain it - I thought it was an Aquila because it is an Aquila!

I don't mind workarounds and such due to short comings caused by the complications of pandamic. If there was ever a time they had an excuse 2020 is it! :-)

It'd be nice if they let us know before we rush to the convention centre though - that Hurc video with them driving out of the back of it got me running all the way to the show and it wasn't there. If there is one project where backers would understand delays, blocker bugs and plans not going quite right, it's SC.

Was just a bit bummed out, the Taurus will likely look almost exactly like it's old Hangar model but it was the first place I ran to to have a look :-D
