A tailless Delta-shaped Fighter will be the next-gen of fighters. Nicknamed "The Golden Phoenix" because of it's Delta emblem on the wings and it's gold paint scheme.
Controls Desc.:
The Ailerons and Rudder are like the conventional airliner, except for the elevator. Since it had to use a symmetric style airfoil I had to invert the movement because there isn't a tail-plane to actuate the movement the normal way.
Features:
Ejector Seats
Arresting Hook
Simulated Engine Failure
ES (Ejector Seat) Parachutes
Germany Flag (Bottom of the wing)
Weapons
Controls:
AG1: Arresting Hook, landing lights and nose gear light
AG2: Simulate engine fire
AG3: Eject navigator seat
AG4: Deploy navigator seat parachute
AG5: Eject pilot seat
AG6: Deploy pilot seat parachute
About the ejectors: So uhh.. Yeah, I didn't really made a seat for the ejectors because I didn't want to waste time. So I just attached the parachutes to the 2 cockpits.
Landing advice:
Before landing on a landing strip or aircraft carrier (ie. USS Beast) Lower throttle to 20% for optimum control. Otherwise, BLOW UP on landing.
Since this aircraft is carrier-based, it gets WAY trickier on landing on an aircraft carrier since it has installed arresting cables. Before touchdown on the flight deck, put throttle to idle (0%).
