The F-39 Pigpen was developed for the TFMGAC/TFAF as their primary combat deployment aircraft, where it served alongside US-supplied F-16 Vipers and Russian Su-30SM fighters in the middle of the 3rd Combat Horizon modernization program of the air branch. First being the A model, then came the B model which was put in service at 1993, and is still in active service to this day.

The Pigpen B is a fighter jet in a delta-canard wing configuration, with thrust vectoring control capability, giving it excellent maneuverability. This high mobility is further enhanced during supersonic or mach speed flight, which, for normal fighter jets, would usually mean wings-go-bye-bye. It's reinforced wings give it great durability to sustain continuous high-G turns in dogfights against enemy jets of equal agility.

This jet also comes with a pre-installed Flightarms EyeSpye Longreach Targeting pod for smart ordnance precision guidance against ground or surface targets, granting the fighter some very decent strike capabilities.

The F-39B is available for export to other allied nationless peacekeepers like the Tactical Forces, and friendly nations who may be interested in this highly customizable, very effective fighter jet.

A carrier-capable model of the Pigpen B, the F-39C, is already under development and will be available for service in the Tactical Forces World Naval Combat branch, and will supplement the F/A-18E Super Spears of the naval air force.
