Ships and Bits

While strolling through the untamed wilderness of Wing Commander III's .TRE files some time ago, Wedge came across an unusual text: a set of specifications and notes about the five Confederation fighters in the game. It was apparently originally intended for display in the ship selection screen, though there's no evidence that it can be accessed in the finished game. Much of the data is contradictory to what has been officially established... including putting the Longbow and the Excalibur's service entry dates well after the end of the Kilrathi War. Still, it's a very interesting curiosity, and you can find it archived in an article here.
