Talon

Strength: Weak
Armour: Weak
Speed: Fast
Cost: N/A

The Talon is a specialized recon VTOL craft based on an old design of the Harpy, however it has been stripped down for weight improvements and heavily upgraded. It was designed after the Second Tiberian War as an anti stealth vehicle spotter due to the Brotherhoods internal fighting and civil war situation. It has a special infrared cockpit visor design allowing it to see any stealthed units on the battlefield. The Talon is a light and agile craft, being a recon based unit it is only armed with a light machine gun which is useful for attacking anti aircraft infantry or enemy vehicles lacking armour.

@Apex- I just meant that it should look more like a Vertical Takeoff and Landing craft, i.e. with some visible method of propulsion, less helicopterish features
(from the pic you could see spots like a bump for a main rotor over the main section, or the tail looking somewhat like it contains a tail rotor)...
but i don't mean to be picky, it looks great anyways Smile

Wow some of these are horribly dated.
