UWAAAAAAA, I finally finished this thing! It was actually made for a challenge. And, by the way, this is my first serious long-term project, though it stretched on more because of my laziness and procrastination.


Здрассссь! My craziness isn't going to retire, and so Our series of extremely entertaining TV shows continues!

This time, Atomic Klounada Experimental Systems makes a full-fledged kick into the world of aviation with its firstborn — the completely self-created Model-01 “Cruel Angel”! It is a fifth-generation multirole fighter, provisionally classified as a medium-class aircraft, and is designed to compete with, for example, the F-35A. It's supposed to be slightly cheaper to purchase and operate, and also to surpass it in flight performance, although it will likely be inferior in stealth, strike potential, and range (after all, it has almost a ton less fuel).

So, what else to say... well, in general, it's a pretty classic modern fighter of its generation and class. It's quite elongated compared to its "classmates," which makes it feel a bit better at high speeds. The overall pointed shapes also contribute to this. The reduction in RCS is mainly achieved through the shape of the airframe to reduce the need for radio-absorbent materials, and therefore the cost of operation. The internal bay is relatively short and shallow, though quite wide, but in any case, it definitely holds up to four LRAM “Longinus Spear” long-range missiles. And, of course, since AKES themselves are manufacturers of avionics and EFIS, the "Angel" is equipped with the latest technology. The cockpit architecture was borrowed from our main partner, Banana Aerospace Industries, so it may look familiar to those who are familiar with BAI's aviation. Two multi-functional screens, a panel with levers and analog instruments, a sidestick, all those things, even a smol Ozoi is there. I mean, why reinvent the wheel, right? (Well, to be honest, our amateur engineers were just too lazy to do something themselves). Okay, now for the most interesting part, the armament (this specific set is to comply with the rules of the challenge):
The most, probably, sad thing: there is no gun.
The internal bay contains four LRAM “Longinus Spear”.
The external pylons hold:
Two Mk.83 bombs
Two Mk.82 bombs
Four SRMM “Stiletto” missiles

Well, I guess that's everything. You're welcome to leave now, gentlemen comrades.
