Astra A5 Croma

The Astra A5 "Croma" is an experimental light supermaneuverable fighter produced by Astra for the Oscarian Air and Space Forces and the first (and only) aircraft of the Hiryu Project. Its relatively small frame made it unique among other interceptors, though the complexity of fitting all the mechanization that made it capable of what it is in a small frame made it mechanically unreliable and a nightmare for maintenance crews.

Version without Kyoko-ZS

Kyoko-ZS Body

The Kyoko-ZS is an experimental extension body for the Astra A5, named after its designer Kyoko Zaorsky Suzuki. It was created to enhance its range and payload capacity with larger wings and additional fuel.


Creator's note

Remake of an older plane I had made back in 2023 also going by the name Astra A5. I did also implement something from a plane by Deffy that he called the F36 Talon in that same year.
