General Info

The AS-50 Cylero is the backbone of the airborne section of The United States of Donerica Nuclear Triad and is also the backbone of the conventional bombing of the USDAF. It is also a long-range bomber, being able to travel over 1000 KM. It is also a fast aircraft, being able to travel at supersonic speeds! (Even though I didn’t intend for it) It has also been in service in the USDAF for over 70 years. It has been in service for so long due to the long range, high speed, and (surprisingly, at least for a bomber) maneuverability.
