My entry to Mikoyanster's 6th Gen Fighter Challenge: XF Stinger is an experimental supersonic fighter, designed with an extremely narrow delta body. Instead, Stinger uses a highly advanced expansive pneumatic system throughout the entire body, controlling everything, instead of using hydraulic processes, thus keeping weight at a low minimum. The large body-like wings help stabilize the aircraft, while the rotating winglets help roll the Stinger. If needed for stealth operations or for reducing drag, the Stinger's upper vertical stabilizers can "transform" into the body, flattening the profile. The engines of Stinger are specially designed: they boast an impressive acceleration to its top speed, and to channel it, has thrust vectoring plates, aiding in its roll and pitch capabilities. despite this, Stinger is forced to use a primitive system of carrying weapons: Missile pods (carrying 3 Interceptors and 1 Guardian each), which increase drag. Stinger is fitted in the standard two-tone gray finish. VTOL to Transform the rear vertical stabilizers.
