Background history The North Star is a modified X-02 Wyvern with stronger engines. It can be considered to be a rouge jet since it was stolen during peace times. The North Star has a shining grey exterior since all the stealth-purposed paint was scrapped off and removed. However the gold paint is still visible. We can conclude that these rebels aren't the brightest masterminds. The build The main reason made the North Star was to practice building custom cockpits in preparation for the new update. I also wanted to experiment with custom engines. I have always been a fan of thrust vectoring however making the engines look good has been a problem. I have already adjusted my custom engines by this time however I wanna keep these engines the same way they are so there will be a skill/design difference between my builds. Weapons The plane depends on guns for its main weapons. Since this jet is PSM capable, this should be a breeze. Its secondary weapons system is the auto aim laser system. Unfortunately for us, the rebels keep this on the jet. The 4 Raptor missiles are for speedy targets you can't catch with your gun in a close dogfight. The North Star was not designed for Air to Ground combat but it has a cannon built in for those who like that kind of thing. Have fun attempting to take the USS Beast down with the laser.Systems and notes The cockpit has basic features. The landing gear is represented by a switch. AG 1 is for stabilization. It will light up when pressed. So will AG 2, 3, and 5. AG 2 is to manually fold the wings. AG 3 is to eject. AG 5 is to enable the auto aim, but it is gimmicky. That's everything I have to say. Have fun with this plane and send any feedback if you desire. I'm designing a more ambitious project so it may be awhile until I upload.
