Yuri Airforce Thread - Apocalypse mod for C&C: Yuri's Revenge

Y0) Drop Ship

Since the Allies and the Soviets both had fast transport aircraft, it was time for Yuri's forces to implement an alternative to them. That alternative was the Drop Ship.
Of Alien design, it has a low radar signature and a basic psi-energy-based weapon.

Y1) Super-Cobra

The Cobra was designed for support only. It can support Strike Bombers, Drop Ships, and Swarm Ships and even escort a large variety of ground units.
It's good to have a few around because you might eventually need them. It is efficient vs. many ground units.

Y2) Chaos Missile

After the experimental Chaos Drone proved to be below expectations, Yuri ordered a better Chaos Gas based weapon to be developed.
After some research, it was determined that it was not the weapon that was inefficient, but the means of delivery.
Therefore, the Chaos Missile was created. The missile travels very fast and is not easy to intercept. It's a new and better delivery solution to a good existing weapon.

Y3) Plasma Bomber
Following up after the Chaos Missile design, Yuri's Airforce Command responsible considered that Air pad space may end-up being wasted.
Since the Chaos-based weapons do not affect structures or base defenses, a bomber that can be used from the same Air pad was created.

Y4) Magnetic Disk

The Advanced Gravimetric Research Divisions came up with a very good combination. They added levitators to an old disk prototype, creating a new purpose unit.
The Magnetic Disk can terminate units very fast by levitating them. Ground units can be sunk this way and naval units can be crushed on land.
The new model of this Disk gave up the laser beam weapon in favor of a fully magnetic system.

Y5) Sky Fortress

After stealing a good pack of multi-warhead weapons, Yuri's forces saw that they had no real means of delivering them.
They created the Sky Fortress that was build just for that purpose.
The bomber has an improved range and was recently refitted with long range anti-air missiles to be able to defend when no escort is around.

Y6) Strike Fighter (Airstrike Command Fighter)

Strike Fighter is a converted Mirage fighter modified to fire a new type of bunker-piercing missile.
The fighter is not deployable on the battlefield and it's only summoned via airstrikes.

Y7) Swarm Fighter (Swarm Ship's fighters)

If the Swarm Ship were not to be designed, this fighter would of have been a project failure.
Luckily for it, the Swarm Ship was implemented and the Swarm Fighters were fitted on it.
