A tip of the hat to Wakescar for the modded components.
A Pilotmario Air Force air superiority fighter, designed to employ superior maneuverability and speed in order to get an advantage over its opponents in air combat. It is slated to replace the troublesome Maverick in this role, due to its superior range and maneuverability. The interceptor role is still fulfilled by the Dart Inteceptor Mk 2. Despite its role as an air superiority fighter, it can hold 4,000 pounds of bombs, rockets, and missiles for ground strike. This aircraft has the new low-visibility roundels.

@Glaceon Superior off-road performance.
@PINK Go ahead.
@Pilotmario I want to test this against a Killer Whale
@Glaceon hmmmmm................ ok dont worry about it....
@TempestAviation hmmm.
@Glaceon i dont know i think it would just look cooler
@TempestAviation I dun really see the reason for bigger wheels :/ could chu explain why It would need bigger wheels?
@SimpleTechAndResearch That's what I thought. I thought it was impossible to do a belly-landing in this game. Until today.
@Pilotmario wow
@Glaceon with larger wheels ?
@SimpleTechAndResearch Thanks! I was just testing the landing characteristics (it's great) when on one landing, I made the perfect approach and when I was on the ground, I hit the brakes. To my surprise, there was no tire screeching sound. So I went from cockpit view to chase view and discovered I managed to belly land this jet intact! And I know it was intact because I then deployed the landing gear and took off just fine.
Nice!!!
Good guess. It's after the F-16 Fightjng Falcon, which this aircraft is based on. Pilots refer to it as the Viper, after the Colonial Viper star fighter from Battlestar Galactica. @General360
@Pilotmario Has chu seen my Ant APC Yet? I'm developing a larger one able to carry around 40 soldiers.
Thanks! Want to know why I called it the Viper? @General360
@Wakescar I used a ton of your modded components here.
Actually, just the fuselage
