EAS was commissioned to upgrade the previous Dragon model. In order to enhance the design, the aerodynamics was greatly improved without any major changes to the engines. To enhance the crafts combat capabilities vectoring thrust was added. In addition the craft was given dynamic wings that fold inward to allow the craft to fly faster during long range flights, and fold back out during air to air engagements allow the craft to intercept fleeing targets. Much of the crafts capabilities are still in testing however field result have shown the crafts ability to destroy targets with air targets with relative ease.
Controls:
AG1- Lights
VTOL Up- High Speed Mode
VTOL Neutral- Regular Flight Mode
Note: Do not do VTOL Down, that will damage the wings

Cool and read my recent forum post @EchoWhiskey11
@CptJacobson Interceptors are great but you may want to switch weapons, in a dogfight interceptors take to long to lock on. It depends on the fighter role too, but I use both. Especially if your hunting something like a Drake, you would want to use Guardians to overpower the defense system. Don't worry the Drake is optimized and balanced for all around fighting, and with Interceptors it's a great sniper.
And I meant missiles interceptor or guardian missiles wich do you use most because CV uses interceptor missiles@EchoWhiskey11
Amen @EchoWhiskey11
Hey try out my Firball by the way @EchoWhiskey11
@CptJacobson Well considering the EAS is a force that builds weapons and protects prototypes, we'd probably use guardians and defensive weaponry. The Drake is definitely an interceptor, in and AI dog fight it destroyed the Dragon, and anytime it lost was a tie, so its something you don't want to start shooting at in free flight mode.
And are you using interceptor or guardians because CV uses interceptors mainly @EchoWhiskey11
Well only the CV ace ‘s fly the dragons and drakes @EchoWhiskey11
@CptJacobson it's still experimental. It's faster and more agile, it just takes some skill to fly. Perfect for a seasoned pilot.
HOLY SHIT!!! @EchoWhiskey11
