The KW-74A “Chemosh” is an air superiority fighter developed for the Krakabloan-Wright Air Force in the late 1980’s. The Chemosh was developed with the express purpose of outperforming any other aircraft known at the time and for the foreseeable future, displaying good handling and a powerful radar giving it the ability to fire BVR missiles. In the late 1990’s, the Chemosh was modified to be compatible with the AIM-120 AMRAAM series of missiles, giving more tactical freedom than the previous AIM-7 Sparrows.

Tips and controls -
Everything you need to fly the aircraft is provided in the cockpit with labels, such as refueling probe, drop tank jettison, landing gear and lights, nav lights, braking and the ability to toggle the display on a he right MFD, between a situational positioning display to a weapon load.
the throttle and stick gives access to the weapons and flares, and right below the HUD is control of targeting and selected weapon. The only thing to watch out for when flying is high angle of attack at the top of a vertical loop, since the low speed and natural pull of the nose will cause you to pull in excess of 50 degrees of AOA, and subsequently begin an uncontrollable spin than can be tricky to get out of, and impossible at lower altitudes. The plane has significant inspiration from the Republic F-X proposal.
