The QF-2200D-A Ghost was an unmanned reconnaissance fighter used by the U.N. forces during and after the Unification Wars. The Ghost entered mass production in 2002, and the relative lack of OverTechnology in its design made it a low cost unit. With its stealth design, the Ghost was intended for low altitude reconnaissance missions and featured an additional sensor system. Although controlled by an autonomous onboard AI, the Ghost could also be remote controlled from the ground or by an orbiting satellite. The Ghost was armed with five micro-missile launchers. By 2009, the QF-2200D model was replaced with its next generation successor, the QF-3000E Ghost.
