This is my version of the Scout Flier SF-2U designed by Kow Yokoyama for the original series SF3D that ran in Hobby Japan Magazine in the mod 80's. Little is known about the craft other than it is an AI Drone that is used by the Mercenary Army. Most of the unmanned AI units in this series are used by the Strahl. Units such as the Neuspotter, the Krachenvogel, the Krote and the F-Boot are typical. This the only known robot used by the Mercs. There were a few pics in one story and a few drawing. Nothing that shows that much detail. My version was not meant to be an accurate recreation of the one created by Kow Yokoyama. I intended mine to be a second version. Used after sucessfully testing the SF-2U, they decided to give it light armament to attack the scouts used by the Strahl. In particular it is meant to go after the rocket armed Krachenvogel. This the VogelHund, or Bird Dog.
