Lore:

Beleit C-8 "Fordo"

The Beleit C-8 is a 3rd generation naval multirole fighter created by Beleit Technologies. Inspired by the success of the F-15 Eagle, the admiralty decided, "Give us that but for our aircraft carriers," giving Beleit the design contract. The C-8 is a competent fighter, with its decent speed and maneuverability giving it the edge in the Pacific, bested only by its American counterparts.

Pilot Profile: Sabrina Watson

Sabrina Watson came from a pretty average family, the youngest among her siblings. While the rest of them pursued jobs within their home state, she and her eldest sibling both pursued navy jobs, with her becoming a pilot on the AUN Hebei. While specific details of her sorties are not publicly available, it was revealed after her early retirement that, in the three conflicts she flew in, she is credited with 67 air-to-air kills, with up to 20 unconfirmed, alongside multiple successful ground and sea attack sorties.


Creator's note

Thanks to Husky25 for teaching me how to create custom wings and creating the primary wings I used for this Deluxe Edition (I created the other wings after that).
