Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Bucky

"Ready to soar!"

-A Bucky ready to takeoff

Tactical analysis

 * Jack of all on wings: Feared by any ground units that oppose the UCA, the Bucky is one of the best multirole attack aircraft in any inventory. Its deadly accurate gatling cannon makes short work of all but the most heavily armored vehicles while its air-to-air rockets can handle most aircrafts and helicopters
 * Discretion is the better part of valor: While the Bucky is well armored, the nature of its mission exposes it to a wide range of enemy threats. When the situation gets too hot, the pilot can activate their emergency afterburner and return to base. Allowing the Bucky to attack targets in heavily defended areas and then quickly exit the area before being overwhelmed by return fire.
 * We need more ammo: But being built from the airfield the Bucky suffers from limited ammunition storage, requiring the pilot to return back to reload and unable to fight back
 * A contingency: Recent updates to the Bucky includes two HMGs with large ammo reserves, allowing the pilot to preserve ammo against infantry and still fight and defend themselves even when out of rockets and cannon rounds, and prototype jackhammer rounds and magnetic anti-air rockets replacing their old armament, but being the start of production for these updated models means only aces are allowed to pilot them

Ace upgrade
Unit gains 2 all-purpose HMGs that doesn't need reloading, gatling cannon attacks now debuffs target armor and speed, and anti-air rockets now track targets and change target if original one was killed

Trivia

 * The Bucky is based off the A-10 Thunderbolt "warthog"
