The first new post–[[Clan Invasion]] [[aerospace fighter]] developed in the [[Draconis Combine]], the '''''Oni''''' (Japanese for Demon) is a heavily armored medium-ranged craft.
  
 
The desperation of the [[Clan]] invasion years forced the Combine to quickly upgrade its forces. After the production site of Combine's pride and joy, the new-tech ''[[Sai]]'', was captured by [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]], they focused primarily upon fielding advanced refits of its existing venerable designs. With fighter design lagging behind new [[BattleMech]]s, it was only after the development of the Omni-Conversion S-7 model of the ''Sai'' and the ''[[Tatsu]]'' [[OmniFighter]]s that Wakazashi could look towards developing a new non-OmniFighter. However their efforts were delayed yet further thanks to the [[FedCom Civil War]] and [[Combine-Ghost Bear War]], and as such the ''Oni'' didn't make its first flight until [[3066]].

*; ON-2X : A [[Jihad]]-era variant which utilizes [[experimental technology]] by [[Wakazashi Enterprises]]. The Combine's leaders used stolen [[Capellan]] technology acquired through the [[Word of Blake|Blakists]] to give the ''Oni'' eight and half tons of [[vehicular stealth armor]]. To make the armor's stealth capacity function, engineers led by [[Russell Honda]] added the experimental [[Angel ECM suite]]. Its [[MRM-30]] launcher has been fitted with an [[Apollo Fire Control System]], allowing the normally unguided weapons to hit with more accuracy. The craft's two [[ER large laser]]s have been swapped out for a nose-mounted [[Binary Laser Cannon]], the wing lasers have been replaced with [[ER medium laser]]s, and the aft is a protected by a [[medium pulse laser]]. To increase the craft's survivability against missile attacks, an experimental [[Laser AMS]] is mounted in the nose alongside the weapons there. For pilots to adjust their additional energy weapons fire, engineers increased the number of [[double heat sink]]s mounted to 15.
