IVLK-15 Attack Drone (Type 1)
The IVLK-15 Attack Drone, now referred to as the Type 1, is a remotely operated suicide drone guided by properly equipped patrol/recon aircraft. Designed by Ilmailvoimien Lentokonetehdas (Air Force Aircraft Factory) In late 1939 for surgical strikes against well protected targets. It was completed too late to see use in the conflict with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Since the beginning of hostilities with Das Germanishe Weltreich it has seen considerable service not only in its original role but also to probe enemy air defenses noting reaction times, what units launch in response and furthermore to increase pilot fatigue. A handful of these drones have even been used to ram enemy aircraft! Its newly added role though is to find holes in their radar defense network due to geographical features. * Design credit due to @TheOwlAce recolor, markings and story added.
