Pros

This aircraft is unique enough although being a variant.
This aircraft has great potential.

Cons

It poses no significant difference from the RQ-4B and probably will become undermined
Maritime Survillence and Normal Survillence isn’t in the game so it has no difference

#

Anyway this is my favorite UAV

#

And I think it has enough differences to be a seperate or adv custom aircraft

#

Although it would be best to release it alongside maritime patrol jobs

Why only on the OSS?! there are like only 2 out of like 50 maritime patrol aircraft that I can think of that are carrier based, rest are from coastal land bases

you wouldnt be able to afk for as long because you would have to pass through the waypoints
