Full Sized SAAB SA-43 Hammerhead Cockpit Prop from the Dale Long Collection

Collector Dale Long, owner of the famed Battlestar Galactica site https://www.byyourcommand.net , recently came forward with some photos of the full sized cockpit prop used in the 1990’s series Space Above and Beyond! This was one of the best concepts for a space fighter in my opinion…with the cockpit entirely being able to separate from the fighter and serve as an escape pod. I am thrilled that Dale is allowing this to be shown!

S.A.A.B. 1:1400 U.S.S. Saratoga mastered by E. James Small


One of my favorite shows that only ran a single season was Space, Above and Beyond… the story of the young Marines of the 58th Squadron… “The Wild Cards”. They were based on a huge Carrier named the Saratoga. This beautiful piece was mastered as a kit by Jim for ACME 360 Models, and is still sold today! As James notes on his site, it is clear that the bridge area was influenced by The Star Destroyers we have all loved since 1977. I really like this piece regardless of that observation. Beautiful!

SAAB Flight SIMULATOR Hammerhead Fighter – CG Model by Robbie Powell

Using the actual CG Files that were used for the Television Series “Space, Above and Beyond” (that Mr. Mark Dickson shared with this Gallery… and gave his approval to use)… Master CG Artist Robbie Powell has taken the CG model (SEEN HERE) and has been bringing it forward with better detail for use as an actual Flight Simulator model! This is his amazing progress to date! I am excited to view the final version of the 58th Squadron’s Fighter! Great job to Robbie Powell!
