Long Sword UCAV Mashara 2730

Description

The Long Sword is the Muslim Coalition's standard UCAV, and is much similar (matter of fact a copy of the Viper) but in some cases the Long Sword outperforms the Viper by carrying a slightly more weapon load (augmented by the small internal weapons bay and wingtip pylons. Like the Viper it is autonomous with an expert AI and can also be controlled by a human.

The aircraft depicted here is assigned to the 15th Attack Squadron, or "Black Tails". It saw heavy combat during the counter-attack at Moshtar and scored an impressive number of kills. Captain Busher Abbas piloted the craft manually and accounted for the setback of at least a day by striking an ammo dump. However, it did not stop the invasion as the ESU forces took the city a day later.

NOTE: This work is purely fictional and it only intended to be such.

Looks a little like the F-16
