Following the imminent retirement of some of their fighters, the Lykanian Air Force began the FF program, which sought to determine which aircraft would replace the retiring ones. Drakon Dynamics presented the DRA-07 Nyx, a fierce air superiority fighter. While not as stealthy as some of Lykania's current fighters, it is fitted with some of Drakon's most up-to-date and advanced avionics, weapons, and engines. While still only a developmental aircraft in Drakon's books, the LAF already appears interested. The Nyx may very well be Lykania's next air superiority fighter.

Activation Group 1 will activate your engines. There is nothing else to it. This is the first white button on the left side of the cockpit.

Activation Groups 2, 3, and 4 are all unused. Should you make any additions, these are available.

Activation Group 5 will lower the arresting hook, should you want to facilitate carrier landings.

Activation Group 6 will activate the main gun. It designed it to appear similar to a laser gun, similar to a PSLS system. It is pretty effective.

Activation Group 7 will activate combat mode, arming all of your missiles and opening their bays.

Finally, Activation Group 8 controls your lights. It is auto-enabled at the start, but can, of course, be deactivated at any time.
