The Arjan is a heavily customized fighter, built on an individual basis for ace pilots.
It boasts impressive maneuverability and speed, at the expense of total weapon load. Its (very low profile) twin cannons will devastate any aerial target.

It ships from the Hart Arms facility with the "The Shadow Knows" paint scheme

    @TheLieutenant I don't know about the fuel, but using your fuel to 50% differs from changing it to 50%.

    @LazyPanduh Another issue I'm having is that SP planes seem to go through fuel disproportionately quickly

    @LazyPanduh Perhaps I could work out a way to make the tail surfaces into elevons.

    @TheLieutenant Well, just by changing the carnards angle from 30 to 25, and changing the primary wings airfoil to flat bottom I significantly improved its low speed maneuverability at low altitude. But it depends on how you want to improve it.

    @LazyPanduh My next great hurdle is trying to think of ways to improve the next generation of this plane.

    @TheLieutenant Yeah I noticed, I tried to test its agility, and I'd say above 600 mph it will start to come into its own. Really well balanced, wont move up or down on the ball unless you tell it to.

    @LazyPanduh Once you get going fast, you can't really force it into a tight turn, you have to gently ease it into a tight turn, but if you do that, you can do a full elevator turn at 800mph without losing control.

    Very Nice, although it tends to lose control sometimes in a turn
