F-24 Necromancer

The YF-24 Necromancer is a top secret, stealth, supersonic interceptor Having two Turbo Ram jets, based off of those that powered the SR-71, they are more fuel hungry, however, they are also more powerful. The Ramjets only activate at 500 Mph, bringing the craft up to 1100 Mph at 30 000 ft in altitude. The reduced speed is due to the increased weight of the craft, which is due to the massive armament. The craft is designed for high altitude patrols, with the primary cruising engines capable of keeping the craft airborne for a substantial amount of time, the Turbo Ramjets are only used for getting to altitude and after acquiring a target. The craft also has a more fuel efficient engine that is used during takeoff. The craft has state of the art sensors, and advanced weapons.

Extract from the operators manual: When taking off, initiate the secondary engines, This craft should be operated from paved runways to reduce the change of FOD. If the runway has not been inspected prior to the launch of this craft, IoQFA is not responsible for any damage to this craft. In order to reduce the chance of such damage, activate the secondary engine and intake as late as possible. (See the Takeoff and Landing chart for details.) The TRJs should not be activated when in the ground as the stabilizers that deploy with the engines will contact the ground, leading to massive damage to the craft. After takeoff, wait until the craft reaches 500 Mph, and then activate the TRJs. Do not, under any circumstances, activate the chutes while the throttle is at full. This will lead to high stress on the airframe and will void the warranty.

Stress Testing: This version of the F-24 has stress sensors inside the wings. These are the lines along the wings. When on the ground, the lines should be fully visible. If they are not, the craft is at risk of structural failure. IoQFA is not responsible for any losses to aircraft lost when the stress indicator dictates the craft is unsafe to fly. If you are worried about the structural strength of the craft, contact IoQFA immediately. There are many signs of wear and tear on the airframe: (See Maintenance) If any of these appear on your craft, then it is vital that you contact IoQFA immediately and refrain from flying the aircraft in question.

Controls: VTOL Up for the four (4) interceptor long range radar guided missiles.
VTOL Down for the two (2) Guardian Short range High maneuverability missiles.
Trim Up for the four (4) Inferno AGMs
Trim Down for the air to air refueling probe
AG1 for the TRJs, also deploys the two lower stabilizers
AG2 for the two Takeoff engines, deploys the intake as well
AG3 for the three (3) chutes
AG4 for the lights
AG5-8 Unused.

Enjoy! And on behalf of everyone here at IoQFA (So… just me) fly safe!

Thank you to @Mahesa25 and @LlamaIndustries for inspiring me to make this build!
