Hey everyone. Zerø here. And in this, SimplePlanes post, I finally done a fictional build.


Drone age.

Also, submission for a challenge.


Introduction:

The Yeager Aerospace Systems KAQ-1A Alligator is a long endurance attack drone to reduce pilot losses, and was made to be as simple as possible so it can be massively produced in a short amount of time. However, we will make sure we won't make any mistakes.

This variant is the early variant. When possible, the KAQ-1 will be upgraded with new avionics, sensors, and weapons.


Cause of Program:

During the Snowstone invasion of Wright, the Wright-Krakabloan alliance was made. As a result, the SS forces also attacked Krakabloa. The SS proved to be more than a match, as we are forced to retreat to Bandit Air Base. As of now, their forces are planning to attack, and so, we need to make something cheap, reliable, and can endure almost any situation.

We have been researching and developing an unmanned system for about 10 years now to cover up the lack of personnel. And now, we have succeeded.


Performance:

Crew:0
Max Speed: 333km/h
Cruise Speed: ±240km/h
Max Range: 1,111km at full throttle
Armament:
- 2x ACN-4 20mm Autocannon mounted on LAU-6 Gun Pod
- 2x LAU-12 Rocket Pod mounting a total of 7x 75mm Rockets
- 2x LAU-3 CM Pod carrying 8 flares


Well, I guess that's all I have to say. I think you know how I end mine.

Enjoy, and Fly Safe.
