Hello guys!
Here is my latest creation (i think the most demanding till now)
it's the most detailed plane I've ever made.

Special thanks to all the people who helped me with FT and more!

FEATURES:

-stealth design;
-working fly-by-wire system;
- internal weapon bay;
- capable of post-stall maneuvers and supermanovrability;
-detailed cockpit with g-force effect;

in this plane I tried to make a cockpit with some rudimentary on-board instruments useful for flight:

here is the cockpit

from left to right, from top to bottom:

1) AOA indicator (it works when landing gears are down because you need to use in landings, further down I explain how to use it);
2) Stall indicator;
3) Flaps and Brake panel (indicates whether the flaps and air brakes are set to automatic or manual);
4)Artificial horizon
5)AG control panel (a simple panel indicating the status of the AGs)
6)landing gear lever;
7)main monitor (does nothing);
8)right secondary monitor (indicates which weapon is in use);
9)left secondary monitor (does nothing);

CONTROLS:

-AG1: activates supermanovrability (significantly increases the ability to perform post-stall maneuvers, I suggest to carefully dose the engine's power)
-AG2: automatic flaps adjustment;
-AG3: automatic airbrakes adjustment;
- AG5: emergency parachute;
-AG7: turn on formation lights;
-AG8: turn off navigation lights;
-VTOL: flaps and slats (manual mode);
-tim to tim

FLIGHT INSTRUCTIONS

Flaps and airbrakes

flaps and air brakes can be set in automatic or manual mode:
(AG2 for flaps and AG3 for air brakes)
I suggest setting the flaps in automatic mode during take-off and landing operations, manual mode to perform at the maximum post-stall maneuver performance.
The air brakes are comfortable in automatic mode only in landing operations.

AOA indicator and landing

the angle of attack indicator consists of three lights:
- green light (slow);
- yellow light (on speed);
- red light (fast)
these three lights indicate if the angle of attack is good or not while you are landing, in essence you must try to land with the green light on, the ideal landing speed is about 180-190mph.

ACTIVATE 1 TO PERFORM THIS

cool missile launch :3

I hope you like the plane, I've been working on this project for over a week! thank you all for reading this far

    Okay let me just say this. This is an absolutely beautiful and sleek plane. While I understand it is a mostly air to air plane, I would prefer a little more air to ground armament. I love the maneuverability and how it can turn around at a moment's notice. I am so amazed at how well built it is.

    The look of it is really nice and I like the fact that you can make stall turns and stuff. COOL

    This looks really nice and it looks like it's a mix of an f-22 and whatever Mig it is

    @ChisP lol it is a fictional plane, I aimed more at high maneuverability performance than anything else
