The FF-380 Buzzard is a somewhat unoriginally named gunship turboprop airplane produced by Sanaman aircraft manufacturer Brightworks based on the CF-380 Atlas.

Sixteen examples of the type, maintained in the service of the Benacian Union Defence Force as the P-3 Bailiff, acquired a degree of infamy for their role in supporting so-called bandit hunting operations and the conducting of reprisals or collective punishments against non-compliant rural bailiwicks in the realm of Elluenuueq.
