Operation Daredevil [October 31, 2019]

Operation Daredevil was an offensive carried out by a coalition of Osean and Erusean forces. The operation aimed to destroy Arsenal Bird Justice and ultimately end the Lighthouse War.

MQ-101 UAV

The MQ-101 is an unmanned combat aircraft. It features a folded wing design and has incredibly high maneuverability. The Arsenal Bird, a large aerial warship, can carry up to 80 of them at one time.
Hugin and Munin

The MQ-101 is a tailless flying wing, utilizing a wide, flat blended wing design to achieve lift despite its relatively smaller winglets. The winglets themselves can fold for storage (most notably when being carried by an Arsenal Bird) and are downturned slightly at the tips. When being transported by an Arsenal Bird, the drone is carried inverted on the underside of the carrier, and are launched by being released from its berth, falling for a short distance before rolling right-side up and extending its wings for flight.

The drone's primary armament appears to consist of a single cannon and an internal weapons bay to hold an assortment of payloads, most commonly Sidewinder missiles for air-to-air combat.

The MQ-101 is highly agile, a feat assisted by its advanced microwave-powered engine which receives its power directly from the Arsenal Bird which carried it. If the connection is disrupted (for example, if the Arsenal Bird sustains damage and must shut down non-essential systems) then the drone will lose power and crash. The drones are also very fragile compared to traditional fighter aircraft; it only takes a single missile or a short burst of cannon fire to destroy them. Due to this, the MQ-101 relies on its superhuman agility and evasion tactics to avoid enemy fire.

Instructions [Pilot]:

01.) The MQ-101 UAV can only be operated via remote control. Set up a ship or station with an antenna, then proceed to activate the MQ-101 UAV’s antenna.

02.) When seated on the ship/station, go to Remote Access and select the MQ-101 UAV. Press 2 on the toolbar to access the MQ-101 UAV’s camera.
