To be absolutely honest, I feel like making an X-02S feels like a right of passage for any SP creator, and I want you to tell me, did I pass..?

Me when I want to understand the enemy

The X-02S Strike Wyvern is an evolved variant of the Erusean-made X-02 Wyvern. Just like its predecessor, the X-02S has variable-geometry wings and possesses stealth capabilities. It also features an experimental Electromagnetic Launcher at a cost to the aircraft's mobility. Its signature variable wings maintain the aircraft's speed and attack power. While the original X-02 was a variant designed for joint use by the Erusean Navy and Air Force, the Strike Wyvern was exclusively designed for Air Force use.

The X-02S Strike Wyvern was introduced in Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown. It was initially teased in a trailer released on January 9, 2019, approximately a week before the game's release.
