Hangar assets are open-reference wireframes used in PersonFu's coursework, lecture material, and symposium slide decks. No ITAR / EAR-controlled geometry is published on this site. Where a flight-quality artifact is referenced, it lives behind authenticated tooling — never on this public surface. Sketchfab links resolve to current public search results so 3D references stay live without us pinning expired model UIDs.
Next-gen visualizer: Sketchfab 3D embeds, FAB.com concept vehicles, and curated collections. Cyberpunk, OSINT, and speculative engineering inspiration.
