Z-6 'Fiuslk' Rapid Atmospheric Transport
The Z-6 'Fiuslk' Rapid Atmospheric Transport is a light transport that focuses extreme speed and stealth as it's main advantages. It allows for deployment of elite personnel to anywhere in a planet in record time for last minute missions of critical importance, or for delivery of a Quick Reaction Force (QRF) to a hot spot with as little delay as possible, no matter where the QRF is coming from. The Fiuslk is used mainly by the elite forces within the PPT, though depending on the situation it may be used by any HAJAD certified pesonel (High Altitude Jump-pack Assisted Drop). The Fiuslk does not land to deploy it's small carrying capacity of four (one fireteam), but takes off and flies high above the drop site and everyone piles out the back. They then free-fall down and use their jump-jets to slow their descent upon landing. This can be behind enemy lines for a counter assault, on the front line for reinforcement, or deep within enemy territory for a tactical strike mission. The Fiuslk is normally deployed from airfields planetside but has limited capability for launch from a star-ship in orbit or near orbit.
The Fiuslk is equipped with two engines tucked within it's wing system. The entire craft is built to be as sleek as possible for maximum speed and stability as possible. There was much debate over whether or not to add the two stabilizing tail fins as it was an atmospheric fighter even though they would add drag, but eventually it was decided that they would be used. It is equipped with two air-to-ground missiles should it be necessary to remove anti-air threats that are posing a threat or to clear up the landing zone in preparation for the drop. Two anti-air missiles are also equipped for the same purpose, though the Fiuslk primarily uses it's speed to avoid such problems. Two crystals power the aircraft.
- Spoiler:
Pictured below is a scout fireteam loaded up ready to drop. I actually fit all of their equipment minus some antennas (handwaved as retractable), but all three SMGs, the sniper rifle, the DMR, the designator, the computer, the LMG, and the packs (with jumpjets equipped) are all there. If I can fit a scout team then I can pretty much fit any fireteam I need to in here.

Awesome, the shape of the tailfins and color and mention of stealth is probably what reminds of the F117 for some reason. Does a cloaking device go without being said or is it excluded to avoid excess weight?

No, it does not specifically have a cloaking device, just lots of stealth measures.
