Hey everyone, Zerø here. And in this SimplePlanes: Electrosphere post, let's get into the GRDF's path.


For a tailless aircraft, not a bad design in my opinion. I also presume that this is a 6th generation frame.

Welcome to the Electrosphere.


[ INTRODUCTION ]

The General Resource XFA-36A Game is General Resource Defense Force's most advanced fighter in it's arsenal equipped with a 3-Dimensional Panelled Thrust Vectoring Control to maximize the aircraft's maneuverability. It also is a tailless design, with it's wingtips angled at a 45° to make up for the lack of vertical stabilizers. It can however be hinged upwards when deploying it's airbrakes to decrease pitch stability, and increase vertical stability.


[ AIRCRAFT HISTORY ]

Presumably in the middle of the Intercorporate War, General Resource Defense Force had already designed a new type of aircraft to counter Neucom Emergency Unit's ever increasing fleet of aircrafts. The new type of aircraft was designed, tested, and manufactured.

By the later stages of the Intercorporate War, the XFA-36A was deployed. It was first deployed during the attack on Megafloat after GRDF attacked what was suspected to be a NEU's naval base at Petrol Coast. It was then deployed a second time at Port Edwards to hold off against NEU's air fleet which consists of R-102 Delphinus #2, and their newest fighter: R-103 Delphinus #3. The conflict ended in both sides retreating as a result of the Universal Peace Enforcement Organization's Special Armed Response Force which consisted of 2 Su-37 Super Flankers, along with their newest Su-43 Berkut fighter.

Because of Abyssal Dision, a former GRDF ace pilot, and a leader of the transhumanist terrorist organization which goes by the name of Ouroboros, the XFA-36A was stolen and used as their main fighter of their fleet. This can be seen during the sinking of Megafloat.


[ LOADOUT ]
  • 1x M61A1 Vulcan
      A 20mm Rotary Cannon with a fire rate of 6,000 RPM.

  • 4x Missiles
      A short ranged infrared guided missile which has a range of up to 2km.

  • 2x Spread Bomb
      A 1000lb free fall, low drag bomb that can deal a massive blow in large areas.


[ PERFORMANCE ]

Power: 70
Attack: 80
Speed: 65
Stability: 55
Mobility: 85

Tip: It is a great choice for a multirole aircraft. Though it lacked stability, it could make up for it's arsenal. By the way, if you put on the brakes, it would be easier to Post Stall Maneuver. VTOL up will put your brakes up. You can also input brakes.


Oh, before I go.

Here's the Ouroboros version. It's just a simple recolor, but if you want to be the bad guy, you can go ahead and download it.

Well, it's time for me to go. Fly safe, partner.
