KW-27 / Recovered Unit

Doctrine: Near Field

Role: Structured Trim Platform

Status: Active Service

Description

Recovered Unit is a compact quad platform engineered for controlled glide within confined terrain. Derived from continuity-first architecture but reinforced with structured rear-fin authority, it expands the Near Field doctrine into stabilized projection.

A subtle roll entry transitions into shallow single through mid-board, resolving into a light double between the fins before flattening at exit. This configuration preserves uninterrupted water attachment while allowing the quad array to generate composed lift without urgency.

The low continuous dome deck maintains forward volume while softening engagement across the rail line. Soft 60/40 rails forward blend into neutral midsection, introducing only a light trailing edge in the final fourteen inches to stabilize departure without abrupt release.

Recovered Unit does not accelerate aggressively.

It maintains line integrity as if assisted by unseen architecture.

Field observations indicate increased hold through sustained rail engagement and composed projection in confined faces where twin configurations may begin to wander.

Continuity is preserved.

Structure is introduced.
