Keep in mind that this isn't a serious vehicle, its sort of a joke/proof of concept...with that said, may I present to you, the fastest vehicle I've seen/made ever...capaple of reaching speeds of 648 KPH (405MPH)...for only 7.35 million c-bills!

!!! 340 flank!??! If my craft is unwieldly, that must have no steering...
Never thought about checking the sight for another hyper fast craft...
Now you have me...I must try and design a faster one!!! Somehow!

You made the fastest hovercraft possible. I however, unveil the fastest VTOL ever!!!
(Note: This is not to brag, just to see how fast a craft can go)
I wonder the ramming damage this thing is capaple of...perhaps capital scale damage and splash?

Type/Model: Hyper Recon Craft MKII
Tech: Inner Sphere / 3060
Config: V.T.O.L.
Rules: Level 3, Custom design
Mass: 0.38 tons

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
The Hyper Recon Craft MKII is the fastest non-aerospace craft devoloped. It
carriers a 25 omni XXL engine with Jet Boosters to propel it at Mach 3.74,
faster than any non-aerospace craft ever devloped. It costs a lucidly cheap
268,120 C-Bills, however, it lacks external armor and weapons. Its primary
function is to be as fast as hell...
==Capabilities:==
The design, as noted above, goes a bonecrushing Mach 3.74, and the G-forces
would turn the pilot into jelly in nanoseconds if it wasn't for his prototype
G-Suit. The craft's doesn't have rotars per se, but instead, Fusion
Hyperpropulsion Jet Engines mounted at the rear.

I think you've outdone yourself there!
Brilliant work

Like Vagabond's stuff, these would make good, really expensive suicide bombers. Just imagine the charging damage from that kind of speed. I don't think that they ever envisioned that. It would really suck if you missed the to-hit roll.

Not likely. Aerospace fighters are much more like BattleMechs than vehicles in the speed department.
Then again, isn't an aero hex equal to a standard mapsheet or something similar?
So you can get really high speeds, but it just won't look like it.

Yes, an aerotech hex is the same size as a battletech map. This fighter here is as fast as they get. Of corse, this means a prototype compact cockpit and no fuel (Bah, fuels overrated...I always vault the fuel out of fighters and replace it with weapons, I can only see fuel for conventional fighters)

If battletech hexes are 11 KPH per mp, I figured that this units speed is (11x66x18, 18 for the amplifcation of the unit's speed), means that this fighter's top speed is 13,086 KPH, or Mach 11.42.

I have been trying to think up some sort of solaris race track for that kind of stuff. I can also see racing mechs. Put some of the masc monsters through a track with pits and obstacles.
