OVERVIEW
Unmanned attack boats have already proven their value on the battlefield in the Black Sea, but have you ever wondered what kind of extraordinary effect it would have if these small boats could freely fly while launching attacks?
SCYLLA is a heavy unmanned surface vehicle capable of carrying multiple anti-ship weapons. It features a low-observable design and employs wolf-pack tactics to inflict relentless fear and threat upon enemy fleets. However, SCYLLA's poor aerodynamic design leads to limited maneuverability, preventing it from performing advanced maneuvers, which could become its fatal weakness
FEATURE
Surfboard
Back in 1953, the first jet-powered seaplane F2Y (Sea Dart), was newly built. Unlike conventional aircraft, the F2Y’s landing gear consisted of a pair of sled-like hydro-skis to assist with takeoff and landing on water. Although SCYLLA's overall design resembles that of a typical boat hull, the addition of hydro-skis serves a dual purpose, not only do they aid in water takeoff and landing, but they also function as flaps, enhancing the aircraft’s control at low speeds
WEAPON
ASM
SCYLLA equipped two ASMs specifically designed to attack enemy vessels. Each missile is highly powerful, capable of sinking a medium-sized ship with a single hit
Because the ASM are stored inside the aircraft, the bay doors open first during launch, then the missiles are released to a certain altitude before their engines ignite, and the missiles know where it is at all time
MPADS
(I forgot what the words stand for) Based on the impressive results Ukraine has achieved by mounting air defense weapons on unmanned boats, I believe SCYLLA should also be equipped with a certain level of anti-air capability—especially since it is designed to operate in the air...
CONTROL
Take off
Set throttle to maximum and hold pitch down until the plane fully leaves the water, tkoff speed should be around 160knts
Landing
Trim max, slow down to <200knts, and slowly touch down
(DONT exceed the speed limit or the plane will start rolling around)
(Geardown when doing these processes)

NOTE
Appearance
I know the first thing that came to your mind when you saw this plane def is "Man ts sht looks ridiculous as fuk " i know ts plane do looks like sth you would see in dream when you are sick, but i think the appearance is still pretty cool and unique ...right?
Control
The control performance is horrible in low speed, but everything will get better when speed up >300knts
PICS
btw I tried making the anime style version ts time again, but seems like i regret it, heres the draft
Plz leave an upvote if you like it<3

the drawing is 100 times better than what I can do ;-;
F2Y-1 Mentioned!! RAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!!
(my favorite airplane)
@dekanii thx <3
i really liked your drawing, even if its a draft !
and this build is also a phenomenal work !
with only 310 parts, i was expecting some large ass part count
The first thing I see this, I thought it was UFO, until I saw the Seaplane tag.
flying saucer looking ass
Is that my Plate?
@SuperSuperTheSylph fr
Very KAWAII plane I love it (≧∀≦)
