Description

The P-1113 Kottos is one of the airships built for the Estovakian Aerial Fleet. It's main purpose is to provide electronic support to the EAF via radar radomes, one placed near the cockpit and the other in the tail section. It possesses very little onboard weaponry, thus it relies on friendly aircraft and its Gyges brethren to defend it. Unlike the Gyges, which may disengage if necessary to engage enemies, the Kottos stay close to the Aigaion and prove ESM support to all friendly craft.

The 2 Kottos airships, like the rest of the EAF, were shot down in a large-scale engagement with the Republic of Emmeria Air Force in early 2016.

Trivia

The Kottos' namesake comes from the Greek Hekatonkheires, massive giants with one hundred arms that helped overthrow the Titans.
Likewise, Aegaeon (Aigaion) is the name of a Hekatonkheire.
