================================================================================================
Overview:
    The fourth and final product coming from the "Black" automata warfare project. Automated
    Combat Platform Model No. 366DX "Black Eye" is detailed as a Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle.
    Having an onboard radar, as well as a TAG system, the Black Eye promotes tactical
    flexibility and intelligence gathering in the battle space. While the Black Eye is armed, it
    is woefully under armored to the point were any concentrated fire for even a few moments
    will bring the craft down quickly. Curiously, despite having the same programming framework
    as the other Black automata, the Black eye has been described as a bit of a homebody. Never
    venturing far from its launch point or being lackadaisical when under automatic waypoint
    following, often requiring direct control to get the drone to its loitering location. Once
    in position however, the Black Eye excels in its role in deep range spotting and weapons
    directing. Just as with the rest of its family, the "Black Eye" is rarely seen outside of
    SMA holdings and operations.
