That's a cool looking interceptor. I would love to have it as an interceptor skin available when the Foundry and UFO upgrades hit.

When I look up this image I instantly think about the interceptor song that you hear on the original xcom ,ufo defense ,so cool ,it's such a shame that you don't have it on the newer ones

I always love to go back and look at a game's concept art.
Did you ever notice at the start of XCOM 2's first Retaliation mission, there's a model toy of an XCOM interceptor in the dirt? Nice to see continuity nods towards the old game, but disturbing implications as to the children of the colony.

I think the interceptor looks way better than the Firestorm.

The Firestorm was an interesting problem I didn't have the pleasure to concept - the Interceptor I'd argue would have been somewhat easier to do given that it was closer to 'modern day' technology than a craft that was a mix of technologies. Thanks for the complement though

The expansion is really fun. I'm enjoying it a lot. Will there be one more expansion to XCOM Enemy Unknown?

This game boasts some great artwork. The Interceptor looks so awesome it makes me feel sad every time I have to replace one of those for the Demon aircraft.

Love the image. Really nice sleek design and plausibly it could also fly. I hate when designs are clearly designed to fly on air pressure differential given the presence of wings but would have no chance of getting off the ground. We'll done and like the rendering.

Excellent. I think it's really hard to come up with a unique-looking aircraft design, and this is certainly that.
It's a shame that the interception element didn't figure more prominently in the game. You get like 10 interceptions in an entire playthrough; most of my aircraft never see combat.

If you're still into xcom there is the long war mod
