Mikoyan Gurevich Project 1.44

14.1k Griffon1  3.7 years ago

This is my recreation of the MiG 1.44: the biggest missed opportunity since the YF-23.
This plane is an advanced 5th generation fighter prototype which was cut due to lack of funding. The MiG 1.44 has advanced stealth and supercruise capabilities, as well as 3D thrust vectoring (This is my first time making custom nozzles... I hope I did good).
I restricted the payload to two R-77 missiles and its 30mm autocannon. An unintended side effect of the thrust vectoring on this plane is that you can pull off some pretty sick post stall maneuvers.
Aim for 350 mph IAS for maximum effect.
