XFA-27

Auto Credit Based on TylerWildDog's XFA-27

"The last hope for the Special Tactical Fighter Squadron Scarface . . . All information on this aircraft remains classified at the highest level"

From Acepedia
"The XFA-27 adopts a sleek, angular design with variable geometry wings and high-output engines, giving it an extreme level of maneuverability and acceleration. A distinguishing feature of the jet is its ability to release four missiles in quick succession. Its cockpit uses COFFIN in a very limited degree, employing cameras beneath the cockpit to ensure maximum visibility while retaining a conventional glass canopy."

One of the very first original aircraft from the Ace Combat franchise, the XFA-27 is just a beautiful aircraft in my opinion. Everything on it screams high angular shape and deadly performance. Though the F-15 Eagle is my favorite, the XFA-27 is a first on my list for coolest looking aircraft!

The reason i built this is because there were only just a handful of XFA-27s on the site that it's just hard to find one that looks exactly like it and is accurate in size. So, i took it into my own hands over this week to sacrifice my others builds to get this one finished. And honestly it came out better than i expected! :D
One of the features that i have found out is a working COFFIN system in SP and i was surprised that it was really simple to do lmao.

Features

-Working COFFIN cockpit
-Act1 for opening canopy
-VTOL for canard flaps for landing
-Engine exhaust paddles move in rudder position
-4x ASM missiles and 1x 20mm gun
-Automatic variable wings and tail

    I hope the VR update makes you guys realize how awful it would actually be to fly these things, I got instantly motion sick trying this thing.

    Lovely cockpit view and lovely build overall, the only issue I'd point out is that one wing stalls when pitching up at high speed, resulting in asymmetric roll behavior, I'd remedy this by reducing the deflection angle of the elevons and canards, or by making the wings flat bottom.

    Nice job!

    Nice trick you using to make covfefe system.
    For me, I'd move camera and seat a bit back to really showcase the transparent cockpit.
