The DWG.109 Debake Astro Carrier Fighter is an astro carrier-based single-seat fighter astrocraft used by the military of the Greater Garmillan Empire.

History[]

Lyle Getto

Lyle Getto during the Battle of the Rainbow Star Cluster

A DWG109 squadron deployed from Guipellon-class Multiple Flight Deck Astro Carrier Balgray led by Major Lyle Ghetto was sent to engage the incoming Cosmo Falcon squadron in an attempt to distract human's attention, allowing the subsequent attack on Yamato to face weaker airborne resistance during the Battle of the Rainbow Star Cluster. DWG109 was proven to be a match for Cosmo Falcons as Getto managed to shoot down Takashi Daikuhara and gained the upper hand on Saburo Kato but was instead distracted by news of the destruction of Balgray and killed by Kato.[2]

Up to 190 of them were used on Crimson Camraderie Carrier-type Andromedas in 2203, with 4 being typically moored to the superstructure flight deck. All fighters in use on the CCCs recieved a red colour scheme.[3][4][5]

Behind the scenes[]

The DWG109 shares part of its designation with the Messerschmitt Bf 109 used by the Luftwaffe of Nazi Germany during World War II.

The delta wing design of the DWG109 bears a striking resemblance to the Lippisch P.13a and 13b jet interceptors, Wunderwaffe (wonder weapon) aircraft designs of Nazi Germany which were never built.

DWG may be the abbreviation for "Deluswualga", the garmilon word for "Battle-aviation-plane" or fighter.[6]
