British Aerospace FD-352 Swallow

by Jesse Harris Nice (Dodger+@CMU.EDU)

I don’t know if this will be of any use to you but here it is. A friend of mine and I got together and created this little puppy because there wasn’t anything between the Wandjina and the Dalmatian offered in RBB.

Creation: Machiavelli and Grendel (Both riggers).

Incept date:             2031
Handling (Fair/Foul):    2/4
Speed:(Cruise/Full):     105/350
Body:                    4
Armour:                  3
Sig(Stealth)             4(6)
Autopilot:               3
CF to store:             30
Fuel:(Multifuel):        210 L
Econ:                    8km/l
Max cruise:              1680km
Sensors:                 2
Internal CF:             2.5CF
Setup time:              15 min.

    Integral nose mounted Hardpoint w/ 1 CF ammo storage.

    Wingtips: 1 CF Hardpoints(Missiles only)

    One 2CF fuselage hardpoint.

Problems: Uses a forward-swept wing design. Hence, the autopilot is what enables this drone to stay in the air (See history of the X-29). If the autopilot is taken out, the rigger must make a Handling (10) check to land it, and it MUST be landed immediately.

Standard Config includes a Vengeance Minigun mounted in the nose hardpoint.
