The "Sky Striker" cards are made to look like suits of powered armor (in the case of the "Sky Striker Ace" Link Monsters), or various gadgets equipped to/built-in abilities of said armor, as with the Normal and Quick-Play Spells within the archetype. The Japanese name of this archetype is taken from the Japanese name of "Sky Striker Ace" monsters, which is a pun. It literally means "Flash Katana Lady", but it is based on the homophonous word for "fighter aircraft".   Apart from the "Sky Striker Aces", many members also have their names inspired by a Japanese word that has "ki" as part of its pronunciation. All Sky Striker Spells, with the exception of the Continuous Multirole and Field Area Zero, cannot be activated while you control a Monster in the Main Monster Zones and gain extra effects while you have 3 or more Spell cards in your Graveyard (GY).
