S-1 Broadweaver: Difference between revisions

The S-1 Broadweaver is a supersonic strategic bomber designed in 1965 by Hartley Aerospace for use by the [[Royal Armed Forces of the Empire|Morstaybishlian Royal Air Force]], but was rejected during development. It instead saw heavy use primarily by the [[Norograd|Norogradian Air force]] during the [[Auroran Imperial War]] and up until the turn of the millennium. It was one of the fastest bombers ever put into production, its incredible speed at all altitudes allowing it to outrun fighters and penetrate deep into enemy territory, flying at low altitudes to avoid being detected by radar. During the war, Broadweavers were clocked exceeding Mach 3 in level flight on multiple occasions, and proved instrumental in the success of allied military operations. The primary drawback of the design was its relatively low payload size, which was a remnant of the original intention of the bomber as a tactical nuclear delivery system, though the S-1B version rectified this issue effectively and became the most widely produced of all the Broadweaver variants.
