Description
This is an armoured flying combat vehicle, armed with various-caliber guns. It can hover, although at great fuel expense. The two disks are wings of circular form, fully articulated in angle-of-attack and the balls in his centers are a fully gimballed turbofan housings. There is also two monopropellant rocket nozzles in the articulation roots serving to improve stability when hovering.A powerfull computer can manage the stability in any flying condition, and the main body can adopt any elevation angle independently of the flying hardware to engage the unfortunate targets.
Plastic-ceramic lightweight armour plates cover the hull to protect the two-man crew from projectiles up to 37mm caliber or from fragments of nearby warhead explosions.
Main armament is a three-barrel, automatic rotary cannon in a gimballed mount (15ΒΊ in any direction). Ammunition of the armour-piercing type are stored in the rear bulge.

Looks like a cross between the hoverbots from the Fallout series and Syndrome's VTOLs from "The Incredibles".

It's maybe anachronic today, but I placed two crewmembers inside the main body, surrounded by a Titanium armored sphere and perceiving the world through multiple cameras and sensors. There is a pilot that also aim the main gun and there is a navigator that control the defensive turrets. There is also a computerized autopilot that maintain the attitude and the path when the pilot act as a gunner.
The small hatch gives an idea of the real size.
