A PLANE THAT CANNOT FLY SIDEWAYS IS NOT A PLANE
This is the most maneuverable plane (without gyroscopes) i've ever flown/built
pls upvote if u like it!

PSM maneuvers can be done when the plane is under 500mph, it is best when the plane is at ~300mph.

CONTROLS:
AG1: DRIFT MODE
AG2: High speed cruising
AG3: Activate refueler
AG4: Missile bay
AG6: Formation lights
AG7: Arresting hook

**THE FUEL TANK IS A GRAY SQUARE BELOW THE FUSALAGE ABOVE THE WEAPONS BAY. IT IS SET TO INFINITE AT DEFAULT, FEEL FREE TO CHANGE IT.

LORE:
Heading into the 2040s, Russia slowly crumbled because of pressure from the Unified American Continent. Several great minds from Russia decided to create an independent nation in the far eastern section of Russia. They were unable to become scientists and engineers in the America due to rising tensions between the east and west. Feeling patriotic, they believed that the people of Russia needed to break free from its disfunctional leadership.

A nation was built upon the crumbling remains of Russia, and it was named after the arctic rose, a symbol of life and energy amongst the cold.

A new nation would need a new military to protect itself. The designers of this aircraft assessed that the most immediat threat they would face is hostile air forces coming from Alaska and perhaps Russia.

To get resources to build the country, the nation formed good relationships with the United East Asia, especially with China.

The designers were tasked to design a super-interceptor for the newborn nation. This is what they came up with.

This aircraft was fitted with extremely powerful radars and ecm warfar equipment, therefore it had no internal space for weapons. The solution was to create an external stealth weapons bay that could be easily modified to house any weapon needed for the mission.
In this model, the weapons bay housed 12 air to air missiles, a high powered TLS, and some extra ecm equipment.

Only 4 models of this aircraft were built in time for the 2050 Asian-American War. Although the nation was not an active participant in the war, their airspace were used by Unified American Continent aircraft as a passage to attack the United East Asian countries. This aircraft was mobilized to aid its Asian allies.

This aircraft was piloted by a famous ace, callsign "Summer", who relentlessly defended the critical area around the Bering strait against the surging enemy forces.
