Hughes T-10 Thunder
Meet the new T-10 Thunder Naval Trainer. A sleek, cutting-edge trainer aircraft for the US Navy, Indonesian Air Force and Navy, and any nation that dares reach out and take hold of a super-jet that promises to revolutionize the education of new pilots. This beauty will be a welcome addition to any air force daring enough to step into the next generation of aircraft.
The T-10 flies like a butterfly, and stings like a bee, with its forgiving flight characteristics and potent 20mm cannons, snugly placed into the wing roots. She comes with a special helmet set and HUD that allows the instructor to teach the student pilot how to fly without being in the aircraft themselves, thanks to the wonderful technology of radio communication systems, preventing the possible loss of a valuable flight instructor should anything unfortunate occur. Its engine was designed with ease of maintenance and cheapness in mind, and thanks to this, it can be easily repaired with off the shelf parts, and in some cases, even parts you can find at your local dollar store! Additionally, with this engine's respectable output of over 22,000 pounds of thrust, she can carry up to 6,000 pounds of munitions.
The T-10 was jointly developed by the well-known and historical Hughes company and a mysteriously unnamed Indonesian corporation. The T-10 takes its base design from the Indonesian F-10X, a wonderful multirole fighter designed by the mystery Indonesian company, led by the legendary @DameTheNewbie. Dame's corporation and Hughes worked together for 8 years, refining and perfecting the design to produce the beautiful trainer you are currently reading about. The cooperation of the two companies sparked rumors of an expansion of the Indonesian navy, involving the possible acquiring of four supercarriers from the United States.

Creator notes:
I couldn't be bothered to create a second crew member behind the pilot, so that's kind of where the remote education thing comes from. Be sure to go check out @DameTheNewbie, the dude responsible for the base aircraft. He's got some amazing creations, all made on Android from what I've seen, not to mention that he's a pretty chill and cool dude. I used his plane as a base because I couldn't figure out a good design for the body of the plane.
