Information and history

Meant to be a long-range fighter inspired by the Mitsubishi A6m, it has a max range of 1,900km, a high top speed and a very powerful armament. The story begins in the year 1934, the Karyan government was going the possible threat of a Valestian invasion, so they ordered the Poyasakai group to design a fast, long-range, and a hard-hitting fighter to patrol the air space of the Karyan Union.

After two years the KMF-137 was unveiled, the powerful engine was able to pull the aircraft to 580kph at low altitudes and more than 600kph at higher altitudes, the climb rate was incredible for its time, but the range was at a new level, at lower altitudes, it can have a theoretical max range of over 1,900km at 50 percent throttle and traveling at 400+kph. The armament was strong as well, with twin 23mm wing-mounted guns and a pair of 34mm nose-mounted guns it can easily shoot down any Valestian bombers and could patrol massive amounts for a ridiculous amount time.

It is also armed with a pair of Sc-50 GB bombs meant to damage the enemy anti-aircraft cannons for attackers and bombers, it was also selected for a naval fighter conversion program and the Sea Condor was completed at the year of 139 when a small skirmished occurred between Valestia and Karya.
