Name: Eurofighter Silent Typhoon
Type: Concept Replica
Attempt #: 1.5?
Falkenwut Generation Build: 6
Basic Introduction
Here is the Eurofighter Silent Typhoon. A concept artwork I found for a Stealthier Eurofighter Typhoon. Unfortunately I cannot find a lot of information on this specific model, but I tried my best to replicate it.
This version of the Eurofighter comes with:
-A much smaller cross-section
-Serrated & minor Thrust vectoring nozzles
-LITENING targetting pod with a Head-Tracking system
-Multiple loadouts
-A color coating of the old UK 899 Squadron
This was something I was hoping to work on for quite a while. A very sophisticated piece of machinery and I'm pretty proud of the work I've put into it. I am aware that the Targetting Pod does not work exactly as the original thing, and as usual, I really wish to implement Fly-by-wire systems, however I am not very good with Funky Trees (outside the basic functions) to make it look and function realistically.
Special Thanks goes to @tomlin5412 for the Targetting System & Head track System
I have made a customisable loadout version and can be accessed from here. This model comes with a Storm Shadow Cruise Missile and GBU-12 Paveway II bombs. The weapons tend to wobble in high-G turns and can occasionally crash into the aircraft if not aligned properly. I will update and solve this issue in due time. Till then, You are welcome to use the Storm Shadow Cruise Missiles as your own.

Stealth-poon
@RamboJutter True come to think of it! Although since you used rotated blocks, your looks more like an f-19 I think...
@Falkenwut it looks similar to my Sturgeon, smart though =)
This would be awesome to see flying with American f 35s
What a beaut!
@AWESOMENESS360 Agreed. The only "stealth" going on here is mostly from the reduced cross-section and open nozzles to cool exhaust. Other than that I attempted to give this plane a less circular cross-section from the regular typhoon however it still looks a little too circular, and making pointy edges (like the f-35 / f-22) is a bit of a struggle to recreate on simpleplanes.
Really cool concept, although I feel like the external weapons would increase its radar cross-section too much to be stealthy. Maybe an internal weapons bay would be more stealthy, but other than that, the structure of the aircraft itself definitely looks stealthy enough to evade most radar.
Phew, lucky enough, I was browsing through the newest plane page and have seen this.
