- Powerful: Capable of its tiny size, it carries a very large number of missiles and uses them during fights, not to mention that there’s even a turret at the bottom. All this makes the Ergjandi a very dangerous opponent. Missile varieties can be varied.
- Defences: It is made of materials that make it extremely resistant to attacks, not to mention the fact that shields also surround the platform, and any other methods also help with defence.
- Quick and Agile: Fast, agile and very manoeuvrable. All of this applies even if they are piloted or even if they are artificial intelligence. Because of these, they can be very unpleasant opponents, even in cities, between tower buildings.
- Stealth: Thanks to the Skuggalegt polymer layer, it is very difficult to detect these vehicles until they start to open fire.
- Repair: Thanks to the Dral Kayatr thus the vehicle is able to repair itself.
- Few Missiles: The vehicle can carry a limited number of missiles; its number is sixteen. For Ergjandi Air Support, these are the main weapons. If they run out there is only one turret left, and the vehicle has to return to base for more missiles. So you have to think carefully about what the pilot or the AI wants to shoot the missiles for.
- Small: The Ergjandi is quite small compared to other planes or helicopters. A total of one person can be accommodated in the vehicle, which has essentially no extra equipment, just a cabin, a chair and with which to control the vehicle. Ergjandi doesn't even have cargo, so it can't carry extra ammo or missiles.
- EMP/Ion: Even though the vehicle has a high level of protection against such attacks, there is always a level of EMP / Ion attack that damages and destroys the vehicle.
- Explosion: Basically, the vehicle is made of well-protected, resistant materials, but nothing is indestructible. Damage to the missiles, launchers or HAPU can result in a fatal explosion.
- Imperfect: It can easily deceive average sensors and is invisible to them, but high quality (for example military grade or any modern) sensors and scanners can detect vehicle coated / alloyed with this polymer.
- Repair: Although the Dral Kayatr and thus the vehicle is able to regenerate, however it can easily get too much damage that this metal can no longer repair anymore. Because the metal can be damaged so that regeneration is no longer effective, not to mention the regeneration is a slow process, in battle this is useless.
The war never ends, and the HPI Consortium has always been famous for its ground fighting vehicles. On the planet Terraris, too, it is more common for the states there to fight each other. However, now HPI has broken a bit of tradition and this time made an atmospheric vehicle. It’s mostly an aircraft and drone hybrid that has a rather distinctive look.
It is very small in size, much smaller than an average aircraft, even smaller than traditional X-wings or perhaps even smaller than the standard TIE-fighters. However, despite its size, it is very heavy. This is due in part to the material it is made of and in part to the very many missiles it carries. Sixteen of these are loaded into the launcher, of various varieties; depending on the pilot or situation.
The Ergjandi Air Support is fast, agile and easy to manoeuvre. These can be drones, that is, only AI controlled, or they can be controlled by a pilot. In addition to countless protection and safety measures, the vehicles are even equipped with an ejector seat to allow the pilot to catapult if needed. In addition to the many advantages, the big downside is that the vehicle can’t bring extra missiles or ammunition with you, so if they run out, it has to get back to base for extra missiles and ammunition.
Due to the Skuggalegt polymer coating, it is difficult to detect its movement and presence with sensors. Thanks to its size and other features, it is excellent for siege, defence, or any other situation. Even in cities with a lot of tower buildings. These can make it the perfect complement to any urban or atmospheric fight.
The Ergjandi Air Support was originally made for the Eternal Empire, but these vehicles are also available to individual buyers through the HPI Consortium's marketplace.
