F-357 Blackbird
This plane is the successor to the F-357 Striker, and it is to that what an Ipad is to a Nokia 3310. That was a great plane, one of the greatest ever, but this is even better. A top speed completely flat of 850, yes, 850 Miles an hour. And best of all you can go as fast as you like, and this thing will completely stay together. I dare you, go into a 90 Degree dive at 50 000 feet, reach terminal velocity, and then pull up. Nothing will happen, the plane will stay together completely, which as my many tests have shown, is something almost all other fighters simply can't do, they all have just completely fallen apart. Just look at this thing. If you're looking for the best in manuverability, and looks, you've found the Neo to your Trinity, the Romeo to your Juliette, the Clyde to your Bonnie. Make sure you have your graphics set to at least medium, or catastrophic faliure is inevitable. Please enjoy.

663 ThePlaneMechanic@Allstarship No... My newest plane breaks 1000 easily. This isn't my newest plane, if that's what you were talking about. I think I've had about enough of you. Goodbye.9.8 years ago

15.9k AllstarWhat? It does 1150 for me. Your newest plane can't even hit 1,000 mph, or at least it doesn't operate that way on my device9.8 years ago

663 ThePlaneMechanic@Allstarship Fastest I ever got the Firefox to do flat was about 750-800.9.8 years ago

15.9k AllstarThe plane was designed to be touchy. The Firefox is being designed by russians to be the F22's rival. Like most russian fighters have been for a few decades, it includes supermaneuverability. In the description, i made note of the fact that it was a bit unstable. However, you must keep in mind that to be agile, an aircraft must posses an unstable airframe. To maintain stable flight on these unstable airframes, the Fly-By-Wire system in used. Quite frankly, without some sory of stabilizing computer, it's gonna remain unstable. That can't be helped. As for the fuel. The wings are segmented to provide strength, which allows gor high G turns. They are so strong that the only time they fell off was when i dived, hit 1300 mph and pulled up at 1500 ft. This also means that I really can't carry all that much fuel in the wings. As for higher top speed, you said yourself that it has a top speed of 850. The firefox can hit 1150, while still gaining altitude. Neither of these planes are bad, but i just felt like any shortcomings deserved justification. As for the wings, they look that way, because that's how they look on the real thing.@thelonewolf4279.8 years ago

663 ThePlaneMechanic@Allstarship I just flew this Firefox of yours, and if I'm completely honest, I disagree with you. I might replace my third engine with an RCS Module because they seem to be more efficient, but other than that, completely flat the Blackbird has a higher top speed, holds more fuel, and I'm really not a huge fan of how the Firefox flies either, it's far too touchy for my taste, and the odd time it actually spins wildly out of control. It's a very good plane, I just like my Blackbird a bit better, I'll try to work on the range a bit by adding a module, but other than that I do like my plane a bit better.9.8 years ago

663 ThePlaneMechanic@Allstarship Reason it's so heavy is because most of the fuel is in the wings, it holds over 500 Gallons which, as you can see, made it 4000 pounds heavier. Tell me about this Firefox of yours.9.8 years ago

15.9k AllstarMeh, my Sukhoi PAK FA T-50 Firefox could do all this except better. Mine Can dive from 70K, reach speeds in excess of 1150 mph when flying normally and doesn't break in Medium settings. That dive you did? I did that, but i pulled up at 1K ft. Honestly, i've seen better, but not a bad try at all9.8 years ago

19.7k RocketLLMeh, not too agile and the nose is way too light.9.8 years ago
