Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Main article: AV-49 Wasp

The size and mobility of the AV-49 Wasp makes it a favorite of ONI Security teams in high-threat environments. ONI Wasps are outfitted with heavy armor and upgraded weapons, including all-environment homing missiles and HEDP machine gun rounds.^[5]^[4]

Usage[edit]

As the dark livery of these particular vehicles imply, ONI Wasps are very often employed during stealth surveillance operations and night-strike sorties. The hushed and rumor-laden nature of this reality has earned both the craft themselves and their respective pilots the nickname "duskdevils".^[5]
