Triforce

I've spoted a new GDI aircraft that I haven't seen posted yet, it appears to be a larger, beefer version of the Firehawk. Guesses?

one our comrade suggested that it is some kind of carry-all. But we don't know exactly...

I don't think that's a caryall. The back is too... smalll for that.

I agree with Zodiac. It's possible that's a fighter, a scout or a fast bomber

Hmmm... there are four aircrafts in that picture. The one in the left, which only appears half of it is an Orca. The second one from the left is a FireHawk. The third is an orca and the one in the right is an Orca.

eeh? the one at right is ORCA Firehawk, in the middle are the unknown aircraft and ORCA, and then is the half of something in the left

Compare the third with the fourth. It's the same concept, except that a part of the 4th right wing isn't showed and lighting is different. Both are Orca Gunships. Only the second is a Firehawk, which is a light jet unit, as you see. Carryalls are much heavier.

the second a firehawk? isnt that the most right one?

I don't really know what the far left one is, but the one right of it looks like a redone Orca, the next right one looks like an Orca Bomber, then the Firehawk or whatever it is

The left one seems like a carryall, since it has some kind of claws to grab things at the front. It's NOT an Orca, since it has no vertical jets.

The middle is just the new ORCA.

the right one is the Firehawk.

The logo is the old GDI logo, which has been changed after massive protest in the offical forums.

that's correct, yeah.. the tail you see there is the Orca, which you see when it scrolls on in the next scene.

I don't think it is a carryall. With only those 2 engines placed so far towards the back it would be too unbalanced to carry anything, especially from the front. It would need 4 evenly spaced like the TS Carryall. And those engines don't appear to be capable of swiveling to vertical, they look fixed to me.

Orca Gunship, Orca fighter, Firehawk
In order, from left to right.

Also, notice that vehicle to the right, just above the firehawk, in blue:

And here, you can see the orca gunship in the background, in blue, behind the orca fighter (I'm not actually surprised if it ends up being a transport unit, look under it's cockpit part, it has arm-like parts, and those engines seem heavy):
