Development

The Vanguard is the promised twin-engine deep space fighter of the 60 million stretch goal. It is originally known as Bulldog. The concept was inspired by the twin-engine aircraft of World War II, like the Wikipedia-logo-v2.svg de Havilland Mosquito, the Wikipedia-logo-v2.svg Messerschmitt 110 and the P-61 Black Widow.[3][4]
