HADF-9, stands for "Honka.Advance.Dominance.Fighter", it's a Honka Federation single seat multi-purpose stealth fighter that designed with Blin Industry.
It can use for both Air Superiority and Air-To-Surface strike missions, but it usually use at Air Superiority.
It also have both BVR ability and Dogfight ability as it have strong radar and TVC.

However, the project was expensive, in facts the Kosvland Pact Defense Forces doesn't need stealth fighters and they can just use ECM to make stealth abilities by jamming the enemy radar.

Second, to make stealth fighters, the plane must have a specific shape to make stealth effect, that's mean the plane cannot load too much weapons on it; in the same time the wing size will also be limited, it may decrease the lift and need longer runway to take off.

So in the end, this plane didn't massively produced, it only have 10 of them were built. 5 of them were NADF/KC-27 and 5 of them were HADF-9 and they all only used by the experimental squadron.

Fun facts: this plane doesn't have glass cockpit.

[Features]

1. Mini "ECM" defense system

It may not work very effective against missiles but it may able to trick some Auto-Aiming Weapons, for example: CIWS.
Oh also, you can evade the missile with this system if you are experienced enough.
(ECM haven't exist in this game yet, just a little trick by putting the main cockpit on the back of the plane)

2. Supermaneverability & PSM & 3D Thrust Vectoring Control

3. "Semi Automatic" Weapons Bay Control

When you run out of missiles, the Weapons Bay will close the door automatically even you didn't turn it off.
Of course if you haven't run out of missiles, then you have to close it yourself.

4. Separated Throttle and Air Brakes control

You can keep the Air Brakes on without shut off the engine, so you can control your speed much easier since this plane have low drag.

5. The First Supermaneverability Plane without AOA limiter (maybe?)

Yes this plane doesn't have AOA limiter.

6. R A I L G U N

It have Two 100mm Railgun, can use for AirToAir & AirToSurface

[Design History]

As the United Power has fallen, the Kosvland Defense Pact started putting their eyes on the world outside the Kosvland Continent, especially USA, Russia and some NATO members as they supported the United Power during the 2nd Continental War.

However, as the F-22 and the F-35 appear, the Kosvland Pact were willing to have a plane that can against the F-22 and the F-35.

So during the Kosvland Continent Pact Meeting, all the members agreed to start a Stealth Fighter project to against the F-22, F-35 or other stealth fighters in the future.
As the Nekoslavia and the Honka Federation have the best technology in the continent, they participated this project and invited Blin Industry to help with it.

The first prototype was built in 2010. And they started the testing quickly.

However, they found out the plane did not have well performance due to it's Stealth Shape.
In facts, the stealth fighters were too expensive for them as the Continental War already brought too much damage to the economy, it need serval more years to end the economy problem.

So the Kosvland Continent Defense Forces decided to abandon the HADF and the NADF projects and focus on other projects that cheaper than those Stealth Fighters.

Only 10 of them were built, and they all only served in the Experimental squadron.
