The Bell Aviation AV-26B Hammerhead is a ground-attack VTOL designed to provide air support to Marine units. It first entered service in 2077.

The aircraft mounts four General Electric F-760 hyperfan engines on 360-degree swivel mounts, allowing for extreme levels of maneuverability and precision landing.

The pilot's controls in the aircraft are extremely simplified, with most data being fed directly into the Heads-Up Display (HUD) on the pilot's helmet.

The waist of the aircraft has bilaterally-mounted General Dynamics M260 Zeus 30mm cannons on gimbal mounts. By mounting the cannons along the waist, the Hammerhead can linger on-site and perform attack runs without directly approaching the enemy position.

For close air-to-air engagements, and attacking armor on the ground, the four MBDA Missile Systems Arapahoe rocket launch tubes are guided to their targets by laser designators coaxially mounted with the Zeus cannons.
