MQ-9 Reaper Drone & RQ-170 Sentinel

Description
This mod adds the MQ-9 Reaper, RQ-170 Sentinel drones, and associated drone airbases.

It has 5 configurations:
- Default: 2x 500lb Paveway GBU-12s
- Strike: 4x AGM-114 Hellfire IIs
- Strike Heavy: 2x GBU-12s, 4x Hellfire IIs
- Anti-Ship (fictional): 2x Penguin ASMs
- Recon: unarmed

There is also a land unit called "Drone Airbase" for the US, UK, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Netherlands, Japan, and India. The Hellfire uses the TOW missile model.

If you're looking at the MQ-9 and thinking "Wow that looks like an AGM-86C ALCM!" it's because it is. This is a cursed kitbash based on the in-game ALCM missile model and as such, you do not need to install Sealifter.

The RQ-170 includes fictional armed variants, in addition to the real-life recon variant.

Please let me know if you run into any issues below.

2025-03-21: Added RQ-170. Fixed US air base squadron variants.

Oh, the F-47 and J-36 aren't supposed to be in there. I think I accidentally uploaded the wrong folder with some of my unreleased "Skunk Works" projects. Need to balance those out and fix the weapons on them a bit.

Did you add more planes to this mod? I'm seeing the F-47 NGAD, Chengdu J-36, the XB-70, and a few new drones. Looking in the mod folder they seem to come from here.

Pretty cool if you did, although the F-47 doesn't seem to be working correctly in encyclopedia or mission editor.

i'm getting a 19mi target range for the penquin? is that intentional?

It's as close as a Kitbash mod gets, at least for now
Is this really an MQ-9 it looks completely different ?

Could you raise the visual range of the Reaper in game? These things have a pretty dang good spy range visually. I end up modifying the range in game but I feel like I'm cheating at that point. I make the VID, Max Range, and the Look Down range all quite a bit higher for both the MQ9 and the RQ170 although I don't know much about the RQ and the sensor suite. I personally change them to 3, 6,and 3 prospectively just so they aren't comparable to an RA5

Would you considering doing the Type 052D DDG?
