It's the front section of an Orca, similar to the crashed Yak in RA.

It's an UFO that later in TS got the name "scrin".

Beter known as "raapnaap".

It's not a UFO. If it were a UFO, why would there be more than one of them? You only see that Orca hulk after you're able to build them, and you only find them near Nod bases with SAM Sites.

You can clearly see the front section of the Orca there, including the little stubble wings in front that hold the rocket pods. Unless the Scrin decided to hijack Orcas and fly them around for no apparent reason?

Why not? It's what I'd do.

Why would a crashed Orca be white? I think it's an UFO.

IF it is an Orca, then we've identified it, don't we? Ofcourse you could still call it an FO, but that's a bit useless.

I also think it's an UFO, though.

The fact you used the word "if" invalidates your argument.

I'm pretty sure there is also one in mission 3 of GDI. In the left corner next to the GDI base. I remember the times when I couldn't read englisch I thought the engineers might be able to dig there way up the hill. Since they had somekind of thing that looked like a shuffle in there icon. It was the first mission where you could use airstrikes.

I've always thought later on that they were some kind, of strange alien things. They don't look very much like an orca to me.


Size doesn't matter.

That IS definately a crashed Orca, and not a UFO. It matches the shape of the Orca almost perfectly...

http://www.n00bstories.com/image.fetch.php?id=1162487771
The top portion of the above image shows how the distances between the edge of the protrution on the bottom of the supposed "UFO" and the rocket pod on Orca, the bottom of the cockpit windows, and the top of the cockpit windows match perfectly.

maybe it was white to begin with...

I seem to recall Nod orcas being white (if Nod captured a helipad, for example)... and I guess the guy wasn't used to the controls.

That image has been heavily touched up though for Renegade. Note the Hovercraft.
Also it has some goofs: The Apache has no rotors and there are no shadows.

You really think that Westwood Studios would credit someone for a minor piece of artwork like that when it's a terrain tileset? Especially when all terrain tiles were created by Joseph Hewitt?

Oooookay...
