The RPI-13AFA Sutherland Air was a modification of the Holy Britannian Empire’s standard model RPI-13 Sutherland, though next to nothing was known about its development history or even why it was made. Presumably built by Lloyd Asplund, the Sutherland Air borrowed from his experimental Z-01 Lancelot, mounting “Blaze Luminous” energy shields and capable of using the Float system for atmospheric flight. The Sutherland Air was piloted by Lloyd’s assistant CecilĂ© Croomy, who used it to help chase the Order of the Black Knights out of Ashford Academy during the Black Rebellion.
