Named after the aggressive shark like flying killer that inhabits Scarland's cliff walls, the Gull is an attempt to design a atmospheric fighter craft that can fulfill all the different air missions that are required. Recon, attack/ground support, and interceptor. The heart of the design is a 20 ton capacity internal bay that can be outfitted with air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles, bombs, or recon sensors. The cockpit has no external windows ... the flight crew use a synthetic vision system. |
