==Description==
At 100 tons, the '''''Aeshna''''' [[aerospace fighter]] drone is the heaviest of the ''[[Hive]]'' series. It carries an [[Aerospace Smart Robotic Control System|Improved Aerospace Smart Robotic Control System]] that allows it to perform nearly as well as a manned fighter. Protected by 13 tons of [[heavy ferro-aluminum]], the ''Aeshna'' is able to remain in combat for a long time.<ref name=jhst185/>

The ''Aeshna''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s main weapons are the [[large variable speed pulse laser]]s mounted in each wing. When the ''Aeshna'' closes with a high value target like a [[DropShip]] or [[WarShip]], it can activate the [[UAC/10]] autocannons that are mounted alongside those large lasers. For additional firepower against targets, the ''Aeshna'' carries a pair of [[ER medium laser]]s in the nose. Four tons of autocannon ammunition are carried, ensuring that the ''Aeshna'' can remain in combat and inflicting damage on heavy targets long after other fighters have had to withdraw. It can also carry two heavy missiles.
