Final Fantasy VIII, Awesome looking Spaceship!

Back in 1999 when Final Fantasy VIII [8] was released for the SONY PS-1, I read an article on some nameless games magazine.
Within the article, they had posted a photo of a large, very impressive spaceship that was supposed to be featured in the FF8 game. This craft had similar wings to the Sol Bianca vessel, but it was much larger, more detailed and cooler looking!

Since I’m not a fan of the series and not interested in actually completing the game, I don’t really know anything else about this spaceship. But judging by its impressive design, my guess is that it must play an important role in the game?! (Maybe it’s the main characters’ vessel?!)

I’ve been searching Google Image service and Emule P2P for a hi-res picture of this Space Ship, but since I don’t actually know the name or its role in the FF8 game, I’ve had no luck what so ever!

Please, if anybody could provide me info on this ship, Hi-Res photos, Wallpapers, Flyers, or links, it would be greatly appreciated!

My memory is a bit foggy, but it might have been this red space ship, but I’m not sure! Are there any other similar impressive spaceships in FFVIII, if not then this must be it!

Thanks in advance.

That red ship's name is "Ragnarok", if memory serves. You get it towards the end of the game. And no, there isn't anything similar, but you get to drive around Balamb Garden. XD

And what's with all those Air Ships with the vertically aligned propellers on top?
I see they're featured in almost all Final Fantasy Games!

Here are all the FMVs of VIII. Ragnarok appears in Disc 3.
I've been told that the only other spaceships in the game appear in the same disc?!

Believe me man; getting to the Ragnarok took AGES. You have to get up to like, disc 3 - and then you have to go into outer space, and defeat all of the aliens in the exact right colors and blah blah... *rolls eyes*

BUT IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT! xDD

I love the music that plays when you're flying it; I always hum it when I'm bored or feeling nostalgic. <3

LMAO AT CRASHING THE GARDEN XDD
That poor fisherman had JUST caught something - and he had to ditch his rod! xDD

Amray, I bet you like the Ragnarok because Selphie flies it >D Unless you have her in your party all the time; then Quistis flies it... >> Bleh...
