[FSF] Model 15 Wayward Dart

First post of my summer break lets goooo

"Wayward Dart"

"Wayward" literally meaning "difficult to control or predict..."

I wouldn't go that far

when it comes to the Model 15, but it definitely looks the part. The Wayward Dart, more commonly called the Model 15, or sometimes "Dart 15," is more of an interceptor than anything; it's fast, but not a great turner. Its armament is hefty though, you get four guns of whose caliber I forgot, as well as six missiles. It's sure to be a lethal fighter in FSF! Though, it does look quite silly.

Trivia

-The design of this plane originated from a tiny LEGO plane I had. I placed the engine piece underneath rather than in the back of the fuselage, but I thought it was ironically interesting and made this.
-Some changes were made, though. For starters, the engine looks much weirder than I planned, as the engine was supposed to look more or less like that of an He-162 (just under the fuselage instead of above), and secondly, the original didn't have canards, I added those in because it couldn't fly with the rear-wing alone.
-I was tempted to put "France" in the tags for this plane, not for humor, but because the front profile (and most of the aircraft in general actually) strongly reminds me of the Nord 1500 Griffon.
-FSF is back! I didn't forget about it, it just got a tad delayed. More FSF coming soon!
-This plane has been in my unlisted posts since December 14, 2024.

    @CrestelAeronautics I can get the first one, but the second one isn't a problem... kind of. This is an early version of the Wayward Dart, later versions extend the top of the inlet to minimize fume inhalation.

    2 things:
    1. There wouldn’t be 4 guns, there’d be 2x 2-barreled guns (dual barreled autocannons exist, EG. the MiG-21’s gun)
    2. 2 of the gun barrels are in front of the intake, (slightly) remember the MiG-9?
