### AIRCRAFT-"Stinger Attacker"

The aircraft named **Stinger Attacker**, is a new weapon that has been designed to accompany your troops in the battlefield. The aircraft provides extra firepower and devastating damage to the enemy. Stinger Attacker is of six different models which can be distinguished by their star levels and built. There are 3 elements of the aircrafts they include; Talents, Components and Star Level.

#### How to Upgrade Aircrafts

The major factor that contributes to having a high level of aircraft is the **STAR POINTS**. Once you reach a certain number of star points, your aircrafts can be upgraded to a new aircraft skin. You can earn star points by upgrading aircraft components (see details below).
Star points also helps to unlock the talents of your aircraft. The higher the star level, the better its talent effects. These special talents can be used during rallies or defense.

Upgrading aircraft also provides extra bonuses when challenging the maw in joint exercise event (These extra bonuses are Crit Resistance Rate, Dodge Rate, Hit Rate, Crit Rate and Crit Damage- their percentage rate is greatly influenced by the level of your aircraft).

**Note**: Switching talents does not affect your star points, it will always remain at its highest current point.

#### Aircraft Usage

Aside the joint exercises, aircrafts can be used in

* Rallies; Infected Fiend, Settlement Attack, Capital clash, SVS, Reservoir Raid, Influencer trap.
* Solo Marches; Intel Post, Settlement attack and defense, Reservoir raid, SVS, Capital Clash, Alliance showdown.
* Settlement defense and garrison.
* Other future battle events.

**NOTE**: You can only use one Stinger Attacker at a time no matter how many levels of it you have. The star level is only meant to make aircraft stronger and not to stack them.

Once the aircraft is out on a march you can not switch the talents, or use it for another event or rally.

***The table below shows different levels of the aircraft, the star points at which they can be obtained and their corresponding enhance talents ratings.***
