(Credit to 1143 for the MQ-9)

A ZacSmir Modification of the MQ-9 Reaper, One was bought for Modification in 2003, and took 6-7 years (2009/2010) to finally have its Modification, It had to have it's Engines changed to Jet since their "Mach Propellers" are outdated, and to have it fit Larger Missiles.

Production of the Modification began around in 2011 and has been used by its Mercenary Branch.

-Mach Propellers were created in 1960 and has been in Modified Propeller Planes for 46 Years, The Mach Propeller was now considered Outdated during the Modification Process of the MQ-9 Reaper. (Mach Propellers are Propellers that go 860+ Mph or 1384 km/h)

The Drone is armed with
x4 Tube-Launched Anti-Ship Missiles called AGMAS-44 "Sinker"
x6 ATGM-622 Air-To-Surface Anti-Tank/Anti-Ship Missile

Tip: Always have the VTOL and the Trim Up to keep the Wheels from breaking off because of the weight of the Missiles. (Having it Launched in the Catapult is also Recommended.)
