The HK-N.83 Kaicho (Translation: Sea Butterfly),is a single-seat, twinjet, all-weather, stealth fifth-generation multirole aircraft developed by Hon Kain. The HK-N.83 was designed as an air superiority fighter with precision strike capability; it descends from the N.xx program of the 1990s.
Initially developed as a air-superiority fighter, the N.83 proved midly problematic during flight testing as its roll was less than desireable compared to the likes of Iosia's F/A-33 Peregrine and Nordenvok's F-32 Sleipnir. Despite its setback, the N.83 quickly proved itself to be one of the most powerful fighter aircraft to be native to Hon-Kain.
