    The X are for experimental, BC is Bomber Transport, once the X303 the experimental craft was completed and become the prototype for other ships it was given the BC.
    But because it is the prototype and a spaceplance it should be YBCS-3.

    It is also the same for the X302/F-302 should be known as FS-2.

          I did a search and found some gate meshes but not any x303s. I might try and make one but I'm a novice at 3D art, and my texture skills lack the real life style and look. It would look like someone painted some boxes gray.

            Well as a modeller-to-be I can tell you that the BC-303 isn't the model to start with Try doing the Omega Destroyer or the Nova Deadnought from Babylon 5 to start with.

              Spoilers Season 8 ep. 8 COVENANT (highlight to read)
              We have confirmation that the private sector has been involved in the contraction the X302, Colson Inc. built the module that switches the X302 between atmospheric/space flight modes. This means that the construction of the X303 is also aided by the private sector.

                  A rework of the guide will be posted as major information about the ship is revealed in the series, which is around the Prometheus Ep. in SG1, and the series end of Atlantis. If you would like me to add a category or correct me on something I wrote email me at: [email protected]

                    BC stands for 'Battle Cruiser' , you find this out in '7x07 enemy mine'.

                      Hmmm, I remember, I think, that it was said that the 303 carries 8 squadrons of 302s. Not just eight 302s.

                      Anyone know which episode(s) that talk about the 302s on the 303?

                        I use the US Tri Service naming scheme for aircraft and not the Navy system for ships, because it describes the ship more accuracy than the navy system. So depending on who you ask the BC can stand for Battle Cruiser or Bomber Transport, the Battle Cruiser people have series support on their side because in ep707 they name the ship type as battle cruiser.

                            Support Craft:
                            Hanger bays supporting 8 F-302 fighters or similar sized ships (Gliders can also dock).

                            NOT 8 SQUADRONS

                              Each nation may have different size squadrons.

                              I will keep an eye on this. Im pretty sure Major Davis said 8 squadrons. However, this may have be changed in later season.

                                I seriously doubt it was 8 Squadrons. The F-302 is a fairly large fighter and the Prometheus defiantly isn't that big. 8 302's sounds alot more reasonable.
