[Machine Description]
"Sneak Sight" is a Hexa Gear specialized for reconnaissance missions developed by Earthcline Biomechanics and produced by a factory commissioned by the company.
Developed with the goal of specializing in reconnaissance, communications, and stealth, the drone prioritizes quietness and employs an ornithopter-style system that flap and glide for flight. Its body utilizes artificial muscles derived from a variant of the HexaG-R-A-M found in third-generation Hexa Gear, giving each moving part a "non-mechanical" flexibility. Additionally, its flight feathers are extremely sharp, and when combined with the kinetic energy of high-speed flight and dives, they boast lethal power comparable to that of blades.
On the other hand, its armor is thinner than the "Ex-Armor Type," which emphasizes lightweight armor and is considered relatively light. Even Governor firearms can be fatal if hit. However, its top speed, while not as fast as the Windfall, surpasses that of ordinary flying drones, and its agile maneuvers, resembling leaves dancing in the wind, make it extremely difficult to shoot down from the ground.
However, its greatest feature is the idea of not storing the KARMA housing within the drone.
The aircraft are remotely controlled by KARMA, installed on the Hexa Gear control mothership, via a communications network constructed by Sneak Sight itself. Using data links that allow multiple aircraft to function as relays, they are able to perform wide-area, three-dimensional scanning and patrols, as well as covert infiltration deep into hostile territory. They can also be used as armor-type flight units for extremely short periods of time, allowing for quick movement of forces based on intelligence gathered on the ground, and then used again for reconnaissance after separation. The governor of the control mothership is said to experience the sensation of overlooking the battlefield like a chessboard. This remote control is possible with any generation of Hexa Gear equipped with KARMA, but with older generation aircraft, which do not require Zoatex on the mothership itself, the limit on the number of simultaneous operations increases in proportion to the KARMA's available memory capacity. Due to its unique operational form, Zoatex does not manifest in remotely controlled sneak sights. However, this does not always apply, for example, when a KARMA extracted from a damaged third-generation Hexa Gear is directly installed on the unit, and it has been used as a temporary "replacement" for the unit.
When working in conjunction with the Ex-Armor Type: Quetzal, whose primary mission could be described as "hunting," it goes beyond mere reconnaissance or communication means and is used with the freedom of an ancient falconer, sometimes even used as a "decoy" to ensure the accuracy of its own arrows.
Its black shadow and red gaze, swaying in the corner of one's vision, are feared as "the kin of a vicious bird" that brings silent but certain death to anyone who witnesses it.
