Just a quick build, nothing special about it.

Description: The VF-1 Tundra was the Federation of Spycca's very first jet-powered aircraft. It is famous for it's astounding maneuverability, speed, and light weight. It was created very late in the Global Conflict, and quickly turned the tide into the Allied Forces' favour.

Weapons: MRS-A/KRSM - 10mm Gun

Controls: No Activation Groups!

History: Late in the Global Conflict, the Eastern Alliance had been demolishing the Allied Forces and nearly won the war. The Eastern Alliance had complete control over the air, as their new KK-11 and CRN-9 Ice Fairy fighter aircraft were superior to the Allies' ZF-66 Reapers and DYS-31s, allowing for the ground forces to have air support without much fear of it getting shot down. The Federation of Spycca and the Thallaccean Republic decided to work together to develop to make an aircraft that could outrun and outmaneuver the enemy's aircraft. They were unable to make a faster aircraft with propellers, so they experimented with various new propulsion devices until the Jet Engine was born. This gave the aircraft the speed it needed to outrun enemy aircraft if it was overwhelmed. The VF-1 Tundra turned the tide of the war, and suddenly the Eastern Alliance was pushed to a corner and surrendered. The VF-1 Tundra marked the beginning of a new generation of aircraft, a new design philosophy for aircraft and an increase in the cost of aircraft.
