***INCOMING EAM*** TOP SECRET- EYES ONLY COMMINQUE C.O.B.R.A UHZ-701 "BLACK MAMBA" FAST ATTACK GUNSHIP ********************************************* 0700HRS: G.I. Joe operatives informed Centcom about new test operations of a highly advanced, close support tactical gunship in operation at a purported abandoned M.A.R.S. weapons production facility in eastern Uzbekistan. The gunship demonstrated "adaptive" stealth technology that made it impossible to detect aside from being onsite to observe it first hand. Satcom was unaware of these tests as a result of these stealth/anti-satellite capabilities. More worrisome is the fact that Centcom was not made aware of the operations to begin with as this gunship's technologies were not even supposed to be a reality for M.A.R.S. or C.O.B.R.A for another decade. The following images were captured by Mainframe and Scoop who are currently engaged in deep cover assignments to infiltrate this M.A.R.S weapons facility. It is this general's frank opinion that this facility's overlooked operation is a failure of our intelligence forces to have first hand intel available onsite. If not for General Hawk's persistence to send in a team of his men to keep tabs on abandoned M.A.R.S. facilities, these gunships could have become an unstoppable affront to our forces globally if we remained in the dark about their progress. This gunship prototype and facility must be destroyed in order to set M.A.R.S. and C.O.B.R.A back for the foreseeable future. I am making the recommendation to General Hawk that Snake Eyes be sent in to ensure that the base is destroyed and that further research on this gunship's project is curtailed. Furthermore, we need to re-evaluate the chain of command over at Satcom as to where the break down occurred in intelligence gathering on C.O.B.R.A hot spots...I want some butts! Lt. General C. Thomas Bradley IV U.S. Army, High Command ********************************************** TECHNICAL READOUT: C.O.B.R.A UHZ-701 "Black Mamba" Fast Attack Gunship acquired from M.A.R.S Industries Central Computer Lab #101: 1x ZHR-115 M.A.R.S. Phalanx Gatling Gun: Depleted Uranium tipped SABOT projectiles 8x NPB-9 M.A.R.S. "Snake's Fang" Missiles: Anti-armor HEAT charge Fire-and-Forget medium ranged missiles 2x XR-38 "Constrictor" Experimental long range Anti-Aircraft Missiles 2x M.A.R.S. Ulkov TYPE-87 Enhanced turbo thrust engines for super-sonic speeds for evasive maneuvers. How this is accomplished without sheering the rotors off the craft is still unknown. It is speculated that 2 unidentified Gyro-Vipers have provided M.A.R.S. systems analysts first hand experiences of concepts in negative "G" Auto-rotation and Advanced Gyroscopic Physics garnered from human test subjects that are currently being tested on the old Mamba squadrons that has help accelerate the technology from theory to real world tech. 1x Active Stealth Matrix Generator: Source Unknown. Suspect Cobra-La direct intervention or the Ancient Cobra-la Library of Alchemy has been re-discovered by C.O.B.R.A forces. Defeats all forms of current RADAR/FLIR/Satellite detection. Even ground penetrating radar had no effect on detection. Heat and electromagnetic scans also were ineffective against this craft. Only visual detection was possible. By the time you see it, it's too late! ---------------------------------------------------------------- End Back Story.... Been working on this a while...finnally had some good days to get it painted. Had to do something about the Cobra gunship from ROC. Since they could not make the toy resemble what was in the movie and when I saw the potential crossed with the XH-1 this is what came of it. This is my second vehicle custom and the first full blown use of parts from various vehicles. Last edited by CrimsonGuard101; 03-30-2010 at 09:41 PM.. |
