Hatchet-Class Ekranoplan

The Hatchet-Class AGEV2 Ekranoplan is a ground effect vehicle designed by the Wright Navy, it is a modernized version of the AGEV1 (will post it later, still WiP) which was expected to aid on the Krakabloan war but was finished too late, 2 of them were built but only one has be modernized so far. The navy is looking foward to built more AGEV2s and modernize the current AGEV1.

The Hatchet can be used to destroy ships and aircrafts from long range, carry out recon missions and refuel aircrafts, it has max speed of 586 mph/509 knots which allows it to relocate pretty quickly but it may need to slowdown in order to do sharp turns.

It is also equipped with a GAU-8 CIWS for self defense (tracks targets under 1.2mi)
