Silent Swift (@JessaLeih)
UPDATE:
Discovered that tailhook was slightly rotated to the right. Click here for fixed version
A stealthy modification of PantheraShojii's Chimney Swift MK.II
LORE AND NOTES
Designed originally as a tech demonstrator before subsequent testing and improvements resulted in a compact 5th generation multirole stealth fighter that was capable of supercruise and marketed towards nations who wanted an F-35 but couldn't afford one.
Its design makes it suitable for both land and carrier use, but its range is very limited due to its small fuel capacity so tankers must be on standby for longer missions.SIDE NOTE
Its design philosophy takes Pierre Sprey's ideas of what an affordable light fighter ''should be'' (no radar, no missiles, just a simple radio, agility and THE GUN i.e. none of them "overpriced junk" for a "superior" and cheaper fighter (for the 1940s to early 70s)), gives them a very good look and politely rewards them a gigantic middle finger.
• Activate 1 for tailhook
• Disable Activate 8 to fold wings
• Refueling probe located on the tip of the nose which makes it suitable for both boom and drogue refueling
• Armed with an M61 Vulcan by default so you may add more of your own weapons

@PantheraShojii I also suddenly had the idea of creating a tanker out of it, which I'll be posting too
@PantheraShojii That's the beauty of your Chimney Swift I guess? ¯\(OvvO)/¯
Oh my god it's so simple but still looks sexy as fuck what the heck
