F-21C Lion Cub

The Pearlian Aerospace Development Corporation(PrADC) F-21C Lion Cub is a Pearlian all-weather multirole combat aircraft based on the French Dassault Mirage 5 and the Israeli IAI Kfir, with Pearlian made avionics and a local built version of the General Electric F404-GE-102 turbojet engine.

Kfir's we're aquired way back 2004 as a temporary gap stopper for the Pearlian Air Defense Force while they we're waiting for their batch of F-15C's and F-16A/B's then the F-16C/D's. Later it was transferred to Pearlian Army Aviation Regiment to assist their ground troops for close-air-support and counter insurgency missions.

Upgraded with a new General Electric F404-GE-102 engine, improved AN/APG-66(V)2 radar taken from old F-16A airframes, airframe overhauls, enlarged canards, IRST, and Refueling probe.

Author's notes

Fun Fact: I was stressing out because of this landing gear doors. I had troubles animating it 💀

And yes you read that right. Pearlian Army got their own multirole fighter jet.

Feel free to modify it however you want, I would like to see it hehehe. Anyways thanks for upvoting. And btw, if you notice it has ReinMCDeer style, that's because I based it on his builds. I got inspired from him and NewWorldAerospace too
