Originally designed for war, with the QUINN architecture acting as a method of learning new tactics and adapting to new enemies, it has since had the side effect of allowing the sentient AI to develop itself as it sees fit. Viewing itself above Tal and most of those she flies with, she keeps a calm, cold demeanor about her, despite her nonthreatening appearance.

As the first and only of it’s kind, the Type IIA is programmed to preserve itself and the testbed ship and equipment over the well-being of the pilot. For example, if flying in atmosphere and believing the ship to be in severe danger, the AI will automatically take control of the ship from the pilot and move to escape or engage the hostiles, even going as far as performing high-G maneuvers that would turn the pilot into a fine paste. This function is overridable, as per [[Solas Tempus]] regulations.

==Ships - T-493-HF/I "Karasu"==

{{Quote|Nothing can stop the attack of aircraft, except other aircraft.|William "Billy" Mitchell}}
Her primary tool of destruction in space and in the air is a nuclear-capable T-493-HF/I Block 52+ <i>“Karasu”</i> (Crow) Aerospace Superiority Fighter/Interceptor. It has provisions for 6 fighter-class weapons or anti-fighter missiles, with a typical loadout being 4 rapid-fire, synchronized photon cannons and 2 pulse-based anti-shield weapons mounted on helmet-cued swivel mounts dotting the hull, along with auxiliary systems such as a cruise disruptor/missile launcher mount, mine dropper mount, and countermeasure dropper mount.
Envisioned as a high-speed, low-profile fighter intended to fight out close-range ship-to-ship dogfights in dense explosive gas pockets, the Karasu possesses good speed, acceleration, and maneuverability, although the unconventional design relies mostly on fly-by-light, a lifting body design, thrust, and canards to remain airborne in atmosphere. Three engines, arranged in a triangular pattern, give it more than enough power, and the ship maintains an impressive thrust-to-weight ratio of 2.3 with a combat load of 6 guns, 70 cruise disruptor missiles, 50 nuclear mines, 120 countermeasure flares, and on full fuel. Each engine is capped by a 3D thrust vectoring nozzle with a maximum range of movement of +-45 degrees in any direction, while the nose is tipped with recessed 360 degree maneuvering thrusters in order to achieve and sustain angles of attack of up to 78.82 degrees. To facilitate atmospheric movement and stability, it has five vertical stabilizers: two large ones on top, two small ones on the bottom, and one rudder located beneath the primary intake. The fins are relatively large and move quickly, as do the rest of the Karasu's limited control surfaces, and can tilt all the way backwards or forwards for better acceleration or to act as airbrakes, respectively.
The nose art and livery, previously consisting of a shark mouth and kill tallies, have been removed.
A specialized recon probe has been installed in the ship’s sensor suite, allowing for increased sensor penetration and range in the dense nebulas of the Sigma systems. As a specialized, limited production run “Interceptor” variant, Silver Bullet II is capable of a higher straight-line top speed than typical T-493s.
In order to ease logistics and increase service longevity, Silver Bullet II had its four Sunblast B “Banana Guns” (named as such after their distinctive yellow diamond projectiles) and two Improved Debilitator Mark 1 pulse cannons swapped for four rapid-fire [[phaser]] cannons. The sensor suite and reactor were also exchanged for smaller, more efficient systems, although the recon probe is maintained for better penetration through clutter. Additionally, the cruise disruptor mount has been replaced by an Assault-class slot, with four external pylons on the rear fuselage (capacity of 750 lb./340 kg max) for bombs or aerial rockets. It retains the mine dropper, now loaded with lower-yield spatial charges instead of actual tactical nuclear devices, as well as the all-aspect chaff countermeasure launchers, four on the nose and two at the rear of the craft.
Following Tal's return to the Sirius Sector, and Sylvie's transfer to Starbase Tranquility's fighter training division, she has been assigned the craft, while not displaying intentions to return it.

Envisioned as a next-generation fighter pilot assistant, the Type II Combat Systems Computer is an Artificial Intelligence based on QUINN AI architecture. Only one unit currently exists, and it has been fitted with a customized android body for conducting flight training and testing.

Originally designed for war, with the QUINN architecture acting as a method of learning new tactics and adapting to new enemies, it has since had the side effect of allowing the sentient AI to develop itself as it sees fit. Viewing itself above Tal and most of those she flies with, she keeps a calm, cold demeanor about her, despite her nonthreatening appearance.

Special Skills

Sylvie is a Master Systems AI equipped with a Multinodal Core and has 3 distinct forms giving the ability to move seamlessly between them at will.

She usually prefers her holographic form.

Special Abilities

Capable of piloting Silver Bullet II in the event of pilot loss (unconsciousness, death, etc.). The Type II is also able to quickly read radar scans, detect up to 1284 serious threats to the ship, and engage them autonomously.

Background

An experimental AI based off of QUINN architecture, the Type II AI is an advanced combat systems assistant that was placed in Tal’s T-493-HF/I “Karasu” interceptor as part of Solas Tempus’ “Offensive Fighter Systems” project evaluation period. While Tal is not privy to the program details and its goals, his ship was selected for evaluation with the new AI as it was one of the few dedicated combat fighters currently undergoing total refit, and the Type II AI was retroactively integrated into his overhauled sensor suite and flight systems.

Intending to maximize combat efficiency, effectiveness, and overall situational awareness of the pilot, Solas Tempus engineers are also curious to test the Type II AI’s ability to control the ship and engage targets autonomously in order to determine if it is suitable for controlling Unmanned Combat Air Vehicles (UCAVs).

As the first and only of it’s kind, the Type IIA is programmed to preserve itself and the testbed ship and equipment over the well-being of the pilot. For example, if flying in atmosphere and believing the ship to be in severe danger, the AI will automatically take control of the ship from the pilot and move to escape or engage the hostiles, even going as far as performing high-G maneuvers that would turn the pilot into a fine paste. This function is overridable, as per Solas Tempus regulations.

Similar to other AIs, the Type IIA can be easily removed from the host ship by removing a special chip from the ship’s center flight instrument panel, or, if the pilot prefers to have the chip stored in the helmet, by removing the helmet’s combined life-support/systems plug. More recently, she has gained the ability to materialize anywhere on the station.

In her few months of service, she has become proficient in the operation and limits of the Karasu's airframe, allowing her to effectively act as a second pilot that is on par with, if not better, than her organic counterpart. Additionally, she is equipped with data that allows her to detect and mark Nomad incubi.

She was eventually given an android body by Nine, moving out of Tal's ship and into a Thunder-class fighter. After demonstrating her ability and superiority over Tal's piloting skills, she was given a cursory promotion, and after Tal's initial contract voiding and return home, was relocated to Starbase Tranquility with the Karasu fighter as head of the new fighter training corps.
