Another short build. Again, there's nothing special about this one.

Description: KK-52 Vulture is the pride of the Lorelian Aerial Operations Branch. Versatile, maneuverable, cheap and easy to produce. It was designed as a counter to the VF-81 Thorn, and surpassed it. It was used extensively during the Lorelian Defense, and was a good competitor to the Livian JTF-43.

Weapons: UTSH-0 20mm Cannon

Controls: No Activation Groups!

History: Once the Lorelian Empire found out about the VF-81 Thorn, they feared it would exceed their current fighters capabilities, and considering how their fighters were quite expensive, it would result in a huge loss of money for the Lorelians, which they would not recover from. They tasked A.R.E.S with designing a new aircraft, that was both cheap and maneuverable. They came up with the KK-49, a prototype aircraft that would later become the KK-52 Vulture. In 2001, the Federation of Spycca approached the Lorelian Empire with intentions for peace talks, which would eventually lead to them becoming allies which meant that their efforts to create the KK-52 were for nothing, because they would not need to battle with the VF-81. However, when they were once again invaded by their neighbouring country, Livia, the KK-52 found it's purpose. Throughout the entire war, the KK-52 would be on par with the JTF-43 in many ways and were almost equally matched, but the Lorelian pilots were better trained than the Livians. Once the Lorelians took back their territory, they pushed back towards Livia. After many hard fought battles, the Lorelians captured the Livian capital city, Lunapolis and won the war. The KK-52 continued to fight many battles and become the most famous aircraft in the Lorelian Empire.
