It's finally time for some Nod action with the all-new Support Class Aircraft, the Salamander!

Kane's tenuous alliance with GDI during the period of TCN construction marked an era of relative peace for both factions. While certain Nod splinter elements continued a campaign of violence throughout the civilized world, the majority of Nod's true followers complied with Kane's call for peace. Knowing that "idle hands are the devil's playground," Kane ordered his most ambitious generals to work with his devious cadre of scientists to prepare the next generation of weapons. This program, known as Project Omega, resulted in the most technologically stunning creations ever fielded by man, the Salamander among them.
