Northwind FC-10 Phoenix A

3,591 aerobeeter  8 months ago


The Phoenix was a carrier-based Interceptor meant to be a platform for the Globetrotter long range missile, the first of its kind, to defend carrier fleets from long range bombers. It also carried such a generous missile capacity that would any warmonger drool. The interceptor proved to not only be a highly effective Air-to-Air platform, but also a very maneuverable one, with some of the most powerful (and fuel hungry) engines with a 2 stage afterburner system.

VTOL up for flaps, down for wing sweep and glove vanes, Activate 1 for arrestor hook, 2 to jettison fuel tanks, 3 to activate refuelling probe, 4 to jettison Globetrotter missiles, 5 to jettison rear hardpoints, 6 to open canopy, 7 to eject, 8 for master arm

aaand that wraps up the planes that I wanted to release 1 month and a day ago

    @teddyone02 the real tomcat's wing was built like that too, certain design parameters that made it as maneuverable and fast as it is also causes it to shake and rattle like a poorly built pickup in high g turns
    edit: wow yeah those are really thin wings jesus christ
