Description
N-18 Yanajo is a single seater liquid cooled aircraft. It was to be said to be one of Eastaria's strongest and mass produced fighter. It was more of a energy fighter rather then a turn fighter. As most Eastarian planes, it lacks armor but its diving speed makes up for it. It can engage in turn fights properly at around 250mph. Due to its engine being inverted and the oil being at constant use, it would burst which led the design to have a lot of air intakes. It was armed with two 20 milimeter cannons behind the engine and two 12.5 machine guns mounted on the wings. It carries decent ammunition. It can be fit to carry 4 GV-50 rockets and 2 100kg bombs which add a extra 2000 lbs. Due to a raging war at Jacomia, it was stationed to fight the enemies invading Jacomia. The first spotted N-18 claimed that they were Jacomian's AF-18 due to its similar appearance. Further reports claimed that they were the previous N-17 that fought in a small island at Yakucho. Many enemies see the N-18 as a threat but found a weakness. The N-18 does indeed have a powerful engine but while climbing, it was shown to be slow and weak. It was mostly a medium altitude fighter and one of the best ways to counter the N-18 was head on head or using the boom and zoom tactic due to the N-18 having a slow cruising speed. It was used extensively during the war and later retired 5 years after the war ended.

omg not a german bf 109
Sorry, swore I took care of this a month ago! getting around to posting these now -
Handling, stability, agility: 10 points :: 7/10 - Speedwise, this aircraft is neigh perfect for its era and role, however its very... very responsive and agile behaviour pitch-wise feels a little too much for an aircraft at this time period, which ultimately does knock it down a few pegs.
Realistic model and behavior: 10 points :: 9/10 - The N-18 Yanajo has a very pleasing design to it and is very reminecent of the Japanese fighters of WWII, the only reason it doesn't get a full 10 is the flaps feel a tad way too powerful for the aircraft, other than that it's perfect.
Details, paint and other: 10 points :: 10/10 - The aircraft has an excellent example of a classic WWII era camoflauge and suits the plane very well!
Build quality: 10 points :: 10/10 - The amount of love and attention put into this craft not just on the exterior, but the interior as well shows that this wasn't just a quick attempt at entering a challenge, this was a beauty to look at and every detail was very well placed.
Personal impression: 10 points :: 10/10 - I was sold from the thumbnails alone and flying the aircraft was something I enjoyed every second of despite what little flaws she had.
Description: 10 points :: 10/10 - I love the fact that the aircraft was from none of the main countries and helped break the mold and expand the in universe histories, I do with a little more was said, but its not enough of a gripe to take away any points.
Overall: 56/60
