The ISNE Bélos is a sixth-generation air dominance fighter in development by Willinkian defense contractor Institoúto Stratigikón Naftikón Erevnó. The Bélos is designed to replace aging fourth-generation aircraft (the Questarian Dauntless and Shrike) and augment the multirole Bantam in Willinkian air service, as well as replace the F/A-77 Kovas/Havenfighter as the primary air dominance fighter in Willinkian use; the latter is to be adapted to a multirole/strike role. Initially conceptualized in 2014 as ISNE worked on missile block and cockpit support system updates for the Havenfighter, the Bélos undertook its first flight in 2021, and is scheduled to reach initial operation in early 2025. In air defense, the Bélos is intended to out-class its regional competitors and legacy platforms such as the Project 352 Nukefighter, Supermarine Sea Kestrel (Libertyfighter), and F-23 Helios (Setofighter).
