The LAC-CWI A/I-44 Illusión is a single seat Attacker-Interceptor aircraft designed for affordable mass-production. Production is handled by both Cyten-Ward Industries and Lesk Aircraft Corporation, with primary manufacturing centers being located in Arcovii-Zokesia and Zalkent. Plans to expand production centers to include the UIF are being considered.
Development
Z.A.K.U Program - Mid-Life Upgrade Series
The Zero Augmented Kinetic Upgrade Program is a series of one upgrade and two proposed upgrades to the aircraft as a result of insights gained from the F-0 Avalon.
Z.A.K.U I
- Entering into service in 2204 for the Zalkentian Air Corps
- Consists of internal improvements and software refreshes
Z.A.K.U II
- Theoretical upgrade beyond the Z.A.K.U I
- Consists of a larger airframe and aerodynamic changes
- Further improvements to internals and software
Z.A.K.U III
- Program specifications still under development
Operational History
Variants
Global Market
- A/I-44: Initial production variant
- A/I-44B: Proposed trainer conversion
- A/I-44C: Utilizes cost reduction whilst having improved flight characteristics
- A/I-44D: Added a centerline pylon used to mount large payloads
Zalkentian Variants
- A/I-44C/D Z.A.K.U I: Future variant for the Royal Zalkentian Air Corps
