Hey all,

I'm looking for some hints about the beam (width) size of those 4 ships (Arrow, Hawk, Mustang, Sabre) when wings are folded.

I've made some calculation for the Hawk, and it seems to be around 7.5m (calculated from that image https://cdn3.dualshockers.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/AnvilHawk-17.jpg )
Anyone able to confirm that or not?

What about the other 3?

If anyone has those ship ingame and can make some screenshot from top with wings extended/folded, would be nice :like: i would be able to do some approximate calculation for the beam dimension.

edit : added Sabre since i'm not sure its beam is 24m when folded.

The only type of ship folding that matters. Measured in sheer pleasure!

You aren't supposed to fold ships, you are supposed to fold space.

Wut? That doesn't make any sense. Space is empty and unknown. How do you fold that? Ships though, ships are metal and beams and electronics. All foldable things if you apply some persistence to it.

Dune reference.
Real world, scientific theory equivalent is an Einstein-Rosen (Rainbow) bridge.

Space is not empty though, it's just low density. Everything else gets a little weird if you're not used to it... The Einstein-Rosen bridge is just one of the things that are mathematically possible. These are real theories, and yeah sci-fi stories, books, movies and games have had a field day with this stuff over the years. But it seems that the true nature of the universe is weirder than even the most extreme sci-fi.
