This is the ES-54. Designed as a cheap alternative to other Squirrel Industries aircraft.
Unlike a lot of fighter aircraft produced by Squirrel Industries, the ES-54 lacks 3D thrust vectoring technology, although it does sport the Raven engines which are signature to Squirrel Industries, along with the Falcon Wing Gun.
The aircraft sports four Guardian Missiles along with four Interceptor Missiles and two Inferno Missiles as standard. These coupled with the two Falcon guns and the high speed and large control surfaces along with low wing loading, allow for a superior which will more than happily take a stab at other aircraft that are threatening the ES-54. However, the ES-54 is not just limited to air superiority, but also CAS due to its powerful Falcon guns, which will not only destroy enemy vehicles, but literally send them flying.

That's good. I assumed you had left as well when you didn't post for a long time. Glad to see you're still around too. I haven't been on as often as I used to be, but I am still here.
Good luck on that final. and don't worry, school is almost out.
@SteadfastContracting Thank you. I looked on your profile yesterday and saw you hadn't posted anything in a while, so I assumed the worst. Fortunately, my assumption was wrong! Good to see you're still on the site. I'll have to check out some of your more recent uploads when I have a bit more free time. There's a couple of which that intrigue me (like the Usfaf C-190 (7.5)).
.
Going to try and throw out an upload or two over the weekend at some point too, but it largely depends on what I get done in terms of revision for my final exam (reliability engineering). Either way, I should get around to both things some time soon.
I've missed you my friend...
And your wonderful aircrafts.
@Viperfox I could try an help, but the TR-3B takes a number of renditioned shapes, so I can't really help too much on that front.
This is a nice aircraft, the engine exhaust is cool. the looks are nice and the color of the bullets makes it look like lasers.
Pretty cool. Gotta try it out in multiplayer witha couple of friends!
@AudioDud3 Thank you for the upvote and spotlight! Glad you thought it was worth one!
Nice
