Baen Avionics

Baen Avionics is an aircraft design and production company based in Faneria active in both the military procurement and civilian flight spheres. Founded in 1936 as a wartime aircraft producer, Baen sells civilian craft direct-to-consumer, to airline companies, and directly to the Fhainnin government and approved foreign states.

Baen is known for it proclivity towards experimental aircraft designs such as delta wing, variable sweep wing, and flying wing aircraft, particularly in its role as a military supplier. It currently supplies several larger sweep-wing aircraft to the Fhainnin government as well as heavy strike drones, though it has not won state air superiority fighter design competitions since the 1980s due to preference for the state-owned company Ginearált Aeirbreach as well as the cumulative additional maintenance associated with a large fleet of sweep-wing craft.

Baen Air International

In addition to production, Baen Avionics owns Baen International, a subsidiary consumer air travel company that operates in the northern hemisphere and select regions in the southern hemisphere, namely Sarpedon.

Products

BA-100 Series

The BA-100 Series consists of smaller, twin-engine fixed wing propeller aircraft, and is the oldest civilian production line produced by Baen Avionics.

BA-200 Series

The BA-200 series are Baen Avionics' line of small civilian craft, and mainly consist of single-engine propeller craft for sport and personal use. Many of the early 200-series are simply demilitarized variations of early Fhainnin fighter craft.

BA-300 Series

BA-300s were introduced with the advent of jet and later turbofan engines, and similarly feature fixed-wing aircraft. The BA-300s were envisioned as large passenger planes and continue to persist as Baen's main line of civilian transit craft, and additionally have found roles in military transport and cargo flight roles. Currently, the BA-331 and BA-337 are the most commonly used 300-series craft, with plans to expand the range with the expected BA-345 Globemaster.

BA-400 Series

The BA-403 was an experimental supersonic delta-wing civilian aircraft which failed to attract international attention due to its high requirements for maintenance and avante-garde design theory. Later models such as the BA-412 serve a niche role for business transit, organ transport, and other high-cost, high-speed transport applications.
