'Generation' is an experimental supersonic drone fighter that utilizes a body transformation system. Upon takeoff and retraction of landing gear, the large rear stabilizers will rotate downward and connect with the wings. This creates what is essentially a large wing. Doing so grants incredible lift and can allow 'Generation' to glide large distances. The transforming stabilizers will also rotate downward when braking. In order to compensate for this, small vertical stabilizers extend from the bottom of the engine nacelles, taking priorities in stabilization. Along with the rear stabilizers, the front canards provide excellent maneuverability. 'Generation' is also equipped with Interceptors (activated with AG 1), 25 Lb dumb bombs and Infernos (activated with AG 2). It is also equipped with quickfire functions, and can fire multiple missile salvos (activated with AG 3 - 4). 'Generation' carries two Special Weapons: the 'Trident' AAM Barrage System (activated with AG 5) and the 'Epsilon' Tactical Laser System (activated with AG 6).
