Sorta I'm buying Plano storage and I need to know how tall the af2 is when it lays in its side
Emergency!
I measure fin to fin at 3.25 inches, and about 2.5 inches tall when it is upright on the table. Is that what you needed?
More of if it's on its side
About 2.5 inches.
This will be close thanks man!
Your buying me a new storage case! Your so sweet....

Big enough to see...unfortunately. 
But really, I don't have the ship so cannot help.
Happy to report it's a perfect fit!
Which Plano?

Just go all-in. You know you're gonna wind up buying more and needing the space.
In fact, just get yourself one of those delivery trucks with shelves and drive it everywhere you go. You never know when you're gonna need 100+ ISDs and MC80s. Plus thousands of fighter/bombers and all the MSUs in the world. And all the brace tokens that you don't actually need (because they get acc-ed anyways). Sweet Baby Ray's, you're gonna need half the truck for the brace tokens, objective tokens, and extra point defense reroute cards alone.
Buying large now will only save you money in the long run. And if you order now, we'll throw in a special fold out 4x8 table for games on the go, complete with 6x3 starfied gaming mat...
