Tired of relying on pilots who need bathroom breaks, pensions, and coffee? Introducing the Ekran SCF-301 Halcyon — the world’s first air-superiority UAV designed to out-fly, out-think, and out-sass anything with wings.
- Autonomous dogfighting brain assist™ — faster reflexes than a caffeinated housecat on roller skates.
- Canards + smart flaps — for takeoffs smoother than your dad’s jazz vinyl.
- Electronic warfare suite — because tricking radar never goes out of style.
- And yes — a six-barrel belly-mounted CIWS that says: “Missiles? Drones? Birds? Not today.”
That’s right: while your enemies are busy launching munitions, the Halcyon is already chewing them into confetti at 6,000 rounds per minute. And when it’s done clearing the skies, it turns that same turret forward… because why not?
- No cockpit, no crew, no complaints.
- Hidden weapon bays so your enemy never knows your next move.
- Just a flying swarm-breaker with an ammo appetite.
The Halycon. Not just air superiority — air obnoxiousness. Why dodge threats when you can grind them into recyclable scrap? Call your nearest defense contractor today.
in all seriousness, looking to see if theres anything to improve on this new build. its technically a UAV (controlled remotely by a human operator) but designed for aerial combat; takes place around the start of the 22nd century.
first time ive dealt with curves like these. ended up using that stupid technique of using ovals and spheres so some parts are pretty rough.
took about 6 days to build from start to finish. (i would say more like 4 because a lot of the time its just me staring at my screen trying to figure out how to design this)
mainly inspired by the R-103 Delphinus from Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere (pretty clear).
all feedback is welcome and appreciated
