Bluejay F-55-D 'Leverage'

21.5k TheBlueRobotProduct  7.4 years ago
Auto Credit Based on QuantumSandwich's XF-5C Leviathan II

(Credit goes to QuantumSandwich for the origional Aircraft, the XF-5C Leviathan II)

1200MPH Top speed, 5 multi-role hardpoints (that, if you know how to set up correctly, can be turned into 9), Stealth fighter modified heavily from the XF-5C design. We wanted something with more aerodynamic, faster, tighter-turning, weight-reducing approach while keeping the general aesthetic. Inspiration was taken from the F-22, and later plays on the design may take a page out of the King of Speed, the SR-71's handbook of design.

Air Brake placement was to help with turning, a quick touch of the brake and see a slight increase in turning speed, however, please be careful as going too hard on the brake can lead to flight issues. The plane is designed to be easily recoverable in a stall, however, so if you're high enough you should be able eventually pull out.

    @LAGDragon The fuselage was taken from QuantumSandwich's aircraft, but there are instructions on how to open up the aircraft's file and modify the parts online.

    @QuantumSandwich Big thanks! Glad you like it.
    @Kerbango NP! You were just trying to do what you thought was right, calling someone out. It's fine.

    @Kerbango I was given permission to upload my own version, of which this is. I wanted to expand on his design and turn it into a proper (in my view) 'stealth fighter' while bettering it's capabilities all around. I personally think that it's enough modification on it's own to warrant it being it's own aircraft, though if Q.S. asks for me to take it down I'll do so. As for imagination please see my other planes.
