Also, I'm 90% certain Starsector's very own Talon was based off Tyrian's Talon USP; it has similar wings and is brownish.

The Talon just has wings that look OK at a small size in a small square sprite and is meant to look old, hence the brown
you can get tyrian free on GOG.com
Is there any chance the Hound was based off the Sun Dog from Sun Dog: Frozen Legacy? Arguably the first ever game of this type, well predating Escape Velocity or Transcendence. All my Hounds are named Sun Dog One, Two, and so on in commemoration.
