The S-1 Broadweaver is a supersonic strike bomber designed in
S-1B and S-1C Broadweavers were exported to [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalria]], [[Thorntonist Oscrelia|Oscrelia]] and [[Nilovia]] during the AIW, and post war multiple variants were tested and purchased by several other nations with close relations to

====S-1A====
Line 51 ⟶ 53:
====S-1B====
Heavy attack version and the most widely produced, with a greater wingspan boasting two additional heavy underwing hardpoints, hardpoints on the fuselage, and a larger internal bay. It possessed a larger operational range and far greater payload capacity than the S-1A at the cost of a lower maximum speed of mach 2.1 when unloaded, and was optimised for operations where the threat of enemy high-speed interceptors was
====S-1C====
High performance strike version. Featured high airflow intakes and newly developed low drag features which gave it improved fuel efficiency, exceptional operational range and allowing for a Mach 2.9+ maximum speed in level flight. A more powerful radar system gave it additional ability in using air-to-surface missiles and even some air-to-air capability. Suffered from excessive wear at high speeds.
====S-1CR====
Line 63 ⟶ 65:
====S-1CX====
Highly modified ultrafast experimental prototype developed in the 1980's using rocket motors instead of turbojets and composite heat shielding as part of

====S-1F====
A modernised version introduced in 1990 fielding advanced digital combat suites intended to make up for relatively poor performance in the

[[File:S-2 Prototype.png|thumbnail|Concept image of the S-2 Stormweaver Fighter-Bomber|alt=|left]]The conceptual successor to the S-1, the S-2 Stormweaver entered development in 1990 following the successful S-1X prototype, and was to feature an abnormal enclosed cockpit as well as experimental stealth features for long-range penetration roles like the S-1. The strategic bomber design was scrapped in 1994 after funding issues, though the design was later adapted and downsized for use as a single-
