Auto Credit Based on OrderlyHippo's stripped plane6.4

Credit: Based on MrZa’s F35-B[BETA]
The F-35 is limited to 50 deg angle of attack. I really need help enabling high AoA capabilities without loss of control, particularly "snap roll" while maintaining the 25 degrees/second turn rate. That's a 14.4 second loop! My codes are neatly organized in variable menu for each wing. P.S. Going for realism, not insane post stall manuevering.

    I think body lift on F35 will suck. It will of course increase lift but i think it won't increase glide ratio, and thus won't increase maximum acceleration at given thrust.

    @11qazxc Wow, thank you! I didn't think anyone would. My current theory is in real life, it heavily uses body lift for low airspeed maneuvering. 🤔
    Edit: I meant airflow over the plane caused by the engine exhaust sucking air around the plane’s body, moving it towards the rear.
