Lore of History and Development:

In 1999, the conflict between Indraloka and Suryavansh escalated due to a dispute over the annexation of Timor, the far-west region of Indraloka. Due to the terrain in Timor, fighters like the PT-02 couldn't land or take off without damaging their landing gear. As a result, the government requested PT Dirgantara (Indraloka's aerospace industry) to design a very light fighter capable of vertical takeoff. The project was completed in under three months due to the hard work and technology available in Indraloka. The plane was essentially a PT-02 with a single engine and VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) capability.

Andressia assisted Suryavansh by sending fighter jets for air support. The harsh conditions of the Timor region were unsuitable for the PT-02, which was designed for air superiority rather than close air support in mountainous and jungle regions. Many PT-02s ended up engaging Andressia's fighter jets rather than supporting ground troops.

Three months later, the PTV-01 Beluk Watu (Pesawat Tempur Vertikal 01 Stone Owl) was introduced. Equipped with twin 30mm machine guns and twin 12.7mm miniguns, the ground forces of Suryavansh were quickly defeated, and a large number of Andressia's AF-05 Orion fighters were downed by the PTV-01.

After the war ended, the PTV-01 became a local border patrol aircraft.

Features:

As its name suggests, the PTV-01 is capable of taking off vertically and entering combat in under 10 seconds. Unlike conventional fighters like the F-35, Harrier, or Yak-141, the PTV-01 does not need to fly several hundred meters before transitioning to normal flight mode. It can immediately adjust its nozzle direction after taking off.

The top speed is only Mach 1.6, half that of its counterpart, which can reach Mach 3.3. This plane is also very light, weighing just 5 tons.

Armament:

6 Air-to-Air Missiles "R1U Pasopati"
2 Air-to-Ground Missiles "R1D Konta Jaya"
2 Precision Bombs "BP1 Lukitasari"
2 40mm Autocanon "Guntur Geni"
3 Gun (15000RPM total)
