James Thredores is a pilot junkie. A former test pilot who survived a firey crash, he was given the option (by his employer, ARGENT) of having his damaged body cybernetically repared as some sort of "Severence" package. Taking them up on the offer, James became a cyborg. His cybersystems are very well concealed, they used his tissue where they could and replicated his tissue to create the illusion of biological functioning. When James was recovering, he met Battlemaster and fell under the charismatic sway of the offkilter would be world leader. James and Dr Vanderbrooke approached ARGENT about a combat harness for James. It was a short seven months later when Airstrike began his career with the faction. The fact that James can now fly is the coolest thing ever. He enjoys being the "living fighter plane" for the Faction. He is brave to the point of foolhardy and loyal to the team and it's emotion binding leader. "I can fly rings around you." Although his combat harness has wings and jets, its mostly a ruse. The true secret of James' flight is the internal cybenetic enhancements. He wears the harness for it's weapons. He has machine guns, a few micro missiles and a nice radar array. The harness is heavily armored and provides James with Life Support at high atmosphere. Another flight suited fellow. To tell the truth he is so very similar to Iron Eagle (whom I created roughly a month ago) I fear I am losing my spark of ingenuity... You can scale down or up the combat harness by adding or removing weapons and armor. The Airstrike armored unit is white with red wings onthe chest. The weapons harness on the great retractable wings are gun-metal gray, the wings are white with red stripes along the fore edges. The helm is white with an opaque blue faceplate. The guantlets, boots, and torso have a single red stripe on the tops (boots and guantlets) and the sides (torso).
