The Peregrine Banshee is a multirole light fighter. Its purpose is to provide high performance and greater flexibility at a less astronomical price point than other Peregrine aircraft. Block 45 is a late model, comparable to modern Gen-IV jets.

What's different between my Block 5 and Block 45? Well, the Block 45 is more detailed, receives an onboard ECM suite (look at those antennae), mounts 2 more hardpoints, adds an EOS pod, and carries conformal fuel tanks. The refueling probe has also been moved upward into the view of the pilot (when extended) to ease the process of aerial refueling. Armament wise, it also carries american Mavericks and AMRAAMS, as well as the American-style, fast-firing 20mm gatling gun (with lots of spread to help you hit things).

Armament
The jet carries three [modded] missile types:
4x AIM-120 AMRAAM missiles (credit to @closeairsupport, I just modded it a little)
2x Falcon Mk.II (Short Range SARH missile) [Looks like a guardian]
2x AGM-65 Maverick (credit to @greasytortle, I just made it lock faster)
1x Peregrine AGU-4a 20mm Cannon (modded gatling gun)
More countermeasures than Block 5
