HF-9 Bolide is a high speed fighter aircraft and also the answer of NS.F-11 Maloo, Bolide has a Payen-esque design but with unusual staggered biplane with experimental delta wing configuration and its main role was supposed to be capable on air superiority, from minor to major dogfights and bomber escort as same as Maloo counterpart. For the design, it has the twin tails that stacked on the upper wing, Unfortunately it isn't too much capable for ground attack role since it has serious maneuverability but lack of stability.
