The Mimino F-42 Corsair (Aesori: "Корсар" (Korsar)) is an Imperial single-engine supersonic multirole combat aircraft. Designed by the Laveska-based Far Eastern Aerohydrodynamic Institute "Mimino" (Aesori: Дальневосточный аэрогидродинамический институт «Мимино» Dalnevostochniy Aerogidrodinamicheskiy Institut "Mimino") (DAGI "Mimino") in response to the Kaminari affair of 2150 to replace the aforementioned aircraft in the Imperial Systems Commonwealth Air Force and the Naval Aviation. The Corsair is also used by the air forces and fleet air arms of several other nations. The Corsair first flew in 2152 and entered production in 2153 at Cyten-Ward Industries' Vesnopolye Aircraft Factory. The Corsair entered service with the Imperial Naval Aviation in 2154 and the Imperial Systems Commonwealth Air Force in 2157, in time for the Aeserian Centennial celebrations that year.
