Cutting Edge.

The SCF-68i Enhanced Ranger is a next-generation, 4++-generation multirole fighter developed from the SCF-68 Global Ranger to compete directly with leading advanced 4.5-generation platforms such as the F-15EX, MiG-35, Su-35, and Gripen E. Featuring a redesigned airframe, state-of-the-art avionics and dual-band AESA radar, integrated electronic warfare and countermeasure systems, and a modular weapons suite, the SCF-68i delivers superior sensor fusion, survivability, and mission flexibility across air-superiority, strike, and electronic-attack roles. Engineered for networked operations and reduced life-cycle maintenance through modular subsystems, the Enhanced Ranger offers defense customers a balance of range, payload, and advanced electronic capabilities—positioning it as a compelling option for forces seeking a modern, interoperable platform with robust BVR and SEAD/EA capacity.

The SCF-68i Enhanced Ranger has become a cornerstone of Starcrest United’s export portfolio, with over 15,000 units sold across all variants—positioning it among the company’s top global offerings, second only to the Kestrel and Valiant families. Its modular architecture and configurable mission systems have made it especially attractive to foreign air forces, driving robust aftermarket support, long-term maintenance contracts, and lucrative avionics/weaponry upgrade pathways. To meet specific national requirements and local industry participation goals, Starcrest has licensed four bespoke production variants: the Denel–Starcrest F-122 Lugjakkal, Embraer–Starcrest F-28 Sunliner, IAII–Starcrest F-19 Rakash, and Mitsubishi–Starcrest F-6A Kai Ranger—each tailored in systems integration, logistics footprint, and export-clearance profile to align with partner-state doctrines and procurement policies.
