Errr, pardon my ignorance, but what would your "Python constructor" 
be?  I have this horrible fear of seeing some infantry chucking holy 
hand grenades at the rushing armored columns...

Ahhh...  Time for me to follow suit...

Well, if you insist...

The Spartan has some 20 or so missiles on two pods (no arms, just the 
two pods).  Other than that, there is a reference to a mini missile 
cluster, but I usually just ignore that.

You might think I'm taking advantage of you now, but since I don't 
have DS, I'm going to ask you if you have or could develop the Aliens 
Drop Ship.  It has two sets of twelve rockets each on the unfolding 
wings, plus two pods of missiles on its body, and a pulse cannon on 
its nose.  All are fixed forward mounts.  If I remember correctly, it 
can plop the APC, so that would probably be a/the wrench for this 
model...  Aren't most aircraft size 3.	That's according to SG...

Thanks a lot, again.
