The Python Conquest is a powerful, experimental fighter jet that was originally exclusive to the G.I. Joe arsenal. However, Cobra engineers got ahold of a black market Conquest or two and subjected them to Dr. Mindbender's Pythonization process, making them even more effective.

The Python Conquest has a top speed of Mach 2.42 (accounting for its incredibly high flight speed), and a maximum operating radius of 1,200 miles (six hundred out, and six hundred back) - when fitted with two under-wing, 300 gallon fuel tanks, at least. The Python Conquest has the following vehicular capabilities:

Advanced Computer-Aided Control: the Python Conquest shouldn't be able to fly according to standard aeronautics science. However, it is equipped with extremely powerful, computer-assisted control surfaces, which not only enable the Conquest to fly, but provides its pilot a +1 to all flight actions.

AIM-12 Light Sparrow Air to Air Missiles: the Python Conquest has four of these deadly missiles when fully loaded, which its pilot can use to strike opponents who are out of the range of its cannons. These laser-guided anti-aircraft rockets inflict intensity 12 damage to whatever they hit.

They do like damage to all within striking (near missile) distance of their impact zone.

Blast-Proof Tilt-Back Canopy: the Python Conquest's cockpit has been enhanced by this canopy, one that is made from strength 14 materials. This transparent marvel allows the craft to offer its pilot the full benefit of its material strength, which significantly increases the odds of his survival in a dogfight.

Double-Fang 25mm Twin Cannons: these twin cannons can be fired separately or in tandem. If one cannon is fired at an opponent, it will inflict (armor piercing) damage per a +6 weapon, while dual fire boosts this deadly damage to +7. This powerful weapon can chew up even the mightiest of aircraft.

Flight: its basic purpose for existing, the Python Conquest can fly - and rather fast. Possessing this technological power at intensity 12, thanks to its 26 thousand pound thrust turbofan engines, the plane can fly at Mach 2.42, making it very, very fast indeed.

Invisibility to Infra-Red Light Detectors and Radar Systems: thanks to Dr. Mindbender's revolutionary Pythonization process, the Python Conquest is effectively invisible to most conventional sensors. It possesses this power at intensity 15, making it invisible to all but the naked eye.

Radio Frequency Array: the Python Conquest can use RF signals for two purposes: to communicate with an airfield (or aircraft carrier) with intensity 6 range (500 miles, give or take), and to track both opponents and the terrain with a powerful, 'Bogey' threat sensor, one that functions with intensity 10 effectiveness.
