M3A/98 "Corvus"

DESCRIPTION

The Corvus, also known as the Raven, is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by Obelia Empire. It was manufactured by Kola Arm Industry under the 1990 Rearmament Act, which mandated that Obelia must arm itself. The Corvus was part of the Unmanned Program in the 1980s, a program designed for experimenting with unmanned and remote-controlled vehicles such as UAVs. Weighing approximately 3,000kg, this versatile aircraft is capable of performing multiple roles including scouting, patrolling, and attacking. A total of 590 units were built between 1991 and 2015.

HISTORY OF DEVELOPMENT

Following the devastating 35 Years War, the Obelia Empire faced a grave crisis, including a severely weakened military. An estimated 70% of the Imperial Legions had either been decimated in battle or consolidated with other legions due to manpower shortages. However, in 1990, under the leadership of Emperor Lucius I, the Obelia Empire embarked on a significant rearmament effort. This initiative came to be known as the 1990 Rearmament Act, and it was implemented under direct orders from the Emperor himself. One of the primary objectives of this endeavor was to develop unmanned war vehicles, such as drones and UAVs.

The M3A/98 "Corvus" represents the Obelia Imperial Army's first foray into unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), marking a noteworthy accomplishment. This cutting-edge aircraft demonstrates an array of capabilities, showcasing its immense potential. With dimensions measuring 9 meters in length and 10 meters in width. The Corvus has standard speed, reaching up to 300 kilometers per hour. But notably, it offers an extensive range spanning over 800 kilometers and possesses a standard payload capacity of 1,200 kilograms. While primarily utilized for scout missions, this UAV is also proficient in executing precision attacks using munitions designed for surface targets.

Up to 500 units were built, Corvus had proven its success by various successful deployments. Being pioneer in the Obelian future UAV technology, M3A/98 is notably, an Obelian masterpiece at the time it was built
