Let There Be Chaos.

No, he's not related to the Havocs.

So a while ago,

I was testing out a new PEA-G aircraft against the McDonnell Type B V/STOL, or more accurately the other way around, since I wanted to see if the McDonnell Vertigo could dodge the laser of the unrevealed PEA-G. I wasn't able to, and the Type B V/STOL would have its wings blown off. But thanks to gyroscope I incorporated into the Type B V/STOL for vertical takeoffs, the Vertigo was surprisingly able to retain stability and altitude- without wings or a tail- and landed safely moments later.

Fast forward a couple weeks, I decided that since I had now learned this, I had to put it to use and make an aircraft that can fly without wings intentionally. And that's why we have this: a machine which the laws of flight themselves hate, yet the Chaos doesn't even care about them.

This aircraft does not have any wings, elevators, canards, or even a vertical stablizer (the fin on the back is solely aesthetic, and lacks a wing part which would make it functional). It relies entirely on a gyroscope and engine to stay airborne. It's also VTOL capable. It may be a tad tricky to learn at first, but once you do, it's incredibly fun to fly, and can land in some unexpected places as seen in the first teaser. I will warn you though: he's not a great dogfighter. Intercepting bombers or attacking ground targets is fine, but air-to-air combat isn't recommended unless done with the four provided FRCM S-25M-C2 missiles.

Now, Chaos here is actually a mere prototype: a proof-of-concept so I could see if wingless slight was actually possible and/or practical. Now that Chaos has proved that it surprisingly is, you can expect more wingless aircraft along the way. Eventually, at least. Maybe we'll even get a wingless dogfighter one day.

That said...

Enjoy and happy hunting!
