Lore:

Northernlight Flygplan(Experimental)-29 "Aerotitan"

The Northernlight FpX-29 is an experimental twin engine air superiority aircraft developed and manufactured by Northernlight in collaboration with Hamara Technologies and the Carolean Avalonia Aerospace Corporation in 533NE. Upon entering service in 539NE as the Strfp-29A Aerotitan, the aircraft took the Strfp-25's place as Avalonia's highest performing fighter, and the Aerotitan, with its current variations, such as the Strfp-29DTM, still holds that title.

CE-040 | Alex Eteri

A civilian test pilot for the Avalonian Air and Space Advisory Commission for Aeronautics (ASAC). Previously serving in the 3rd Airlift Squadron for 6 years, Eteri joined the ASAC as a test pilot after being discharged. Over the course of 30 years at the commission, Eteri has flown 37 different aircraft and accumulated over 5,000 flight hours. Eteri is designated as Civilian Experimental pilot #40, or CE-040.

Alex Eteri's FpX-29

The FpX-29 flown by Eteri under the ASAC is armed with the Echinacea ECM system, a prototype electronic countermeasure system designed to interfere with detection, range finding, and target tracking, as well as having the capability to create multiple false signatures to mislead guidance systems. The Echinacea system is mounted on pods on the aircraft's wingtips.


Creator's note

After writing that bit in the Volgadraco's description about a superior fighter, I just had to make it. Also, the box.
