(Sorry about the reupload, AGAIN, there was a surface control mistake I missed, AGAIN)
Well, after 5 years I've finally built a decent fighter jet. I mean, it's the best livery I've done so far probably (totally not a PRT AIR FORCE flex). How she handles you might ask? Well, on her standard mode, she's nice and smooth, lil moody if you push her hard enough, but if you get into High-G Mode, boy oh boy, you're in for a ride. She'll get so mad she'll even pull Pugachev's Cobras on ya.
At full throttle that is, at slow speeds it's a different story. Standard mode, be careful, she might fall asleep, so fly high; High-G Mode, leveled flight at 120kts with a step AoA, fun aerobatics. Try and guess which planes I tried to fuse here.
Now with the cockiness out of the way, this started of as an escort/air superiority fighter jets, and on a 0-10 scale I'd say it's a solid decent 7, a nice evader while we're at it too. Really good crosswind lander.

@Cabbage17 thancc, but this one is outdated :v
@Mustang51 and this time I'll use the updates that 1.9 had that I was unaware of
@Mustang51 perhaps, perhaps
@SemedianIndustries awesome man! I’m excited to see it. If you need any help with it feel free to ask but I doubt you’ll need it hahaha
@Mustang51 you know what? You're right, it can be a bit too unstable, I'll upgrade it
@SemedianIndustries hahaha it’s a monster
@Mustang51 nvm the G's that's the whole point of this plane XD. Pull that, get to 120kts and keep flying another way
@SemedianIndustries I actually fly on my phone so I have the two on screen joysticks. I’ve been flying it a bit more and it’s a little easier now. I still accidentally pull 180 turns at 500mph in two seconds accidentally but it’s getting easier
@Mustang51 do you use keyboard? I strongly advise you too at least use mouse joystick for a calmer control
@SemedianIndustries fair enough. It’s a hard one to fly effectively but I can imagine with some practice you get used to it
@JED thank you sensei
@Mustang51 the CoM is that close to the CoL by design, this is mean to be an Aerial Superiority Defense Fighter, which means it must be able to perform sharp turns on demand so the enemy can't get on its tail
This is really cool! I would say that the CoM should be slightly more forward to make the turns more smooth but other than that it’s great. Lovely build and great looking aircraft. Reminds me of an MD 265 a little
@Pianoman ay man, glad to see you here
@Strikefighter04 indeed
This is an unfortunate circumstance XD @SemedianIndustries
@Strikefighter04 I'm afraid not
Indeed. Dost thou not speek of the exquisite dialect? @SemedianIndustries
@Strikefighter04 ō.ō
Thou art of the welcome, brother. @SemedianIndustries
@SemedianIndustries You’re very welcome, bruva!
@FranzPeterSiegfried @Thelegitpilot13 @Strikefighter04 thanks brothas
@Treadmill103 @Notaleopard I've finally made a great fighter
@nadvgia @KerlonceauxIndustries thank you brothas
