HISTORY
XF-44 Eridanus was an experimental plane developed by RAE. It was used to experiment with engine-to-lift ratio, long wingspan lift, and many other features. The concepts turned out to be performing much better than expectation so RAE decided to turn it into Aircraft Carrier STOL Fighter/ Interceptor jet, and it entered OAF service from 1999 to this day, and IAF service from 2005 to this day.

What do you think about the art?
This is a good plane.But it has a little problem:There is a gap between the wing and the fuselage.
