Description
The design itself is practically done, but still quite a bit needs to be added when a few other things are figured out, so until those are set, uploading this for criticism and the such. This one's a bit of a gamble on the design front, so I really do want to hear your takes on it.

:Things to take note of:

-The Specter is "technically not" a UAV/fighter. The Lore Gods™ are currently convening to fix the backstory behind this thing. Will update when that's settled.

-Has a single seat cockpit to allow the Specter to be controlled directly.

-Has a built in "technically not" AI that manages the aircraft when not under a human's control. Lore Gods™ are also working on this one.

-One of it's main intended uses is to be commanded by an R.G.O. during sorties, boosting fighting power without putting more lives at risk. For example, a single VTF-22 R.G.O. would be able to command up to 5 of these at once, putting a fighting force of 6 aircraft while only having to have to send out 2 people.

-Due to the ability to be piloted without having an actual human on board, the Specter was made to be hyper-maneuverable and is often seen to be moving in ways that a human pilot would not be able to handle. This combined with the fact that knowledge of the Specter's unmanned capabilities were a heavily guarded secret gave some opposing nations the mentality that Vredden pilots were "not human."

-The Specter's variable wings and high output Kelvium based engine allow it to achieve speeds of up to mach 6, solidifying it's role as a quick response support fighter. It's ability to quickly enter and exit a combat area has on numerous occasions saved the lives of many pilots.

I'll continue to add more to this as it's finished.
