"Skirmisher"

Eh I just kinda liked the name, plus I'm saving others like "Duelist" and "Brawler" for later.

A fighter

that certainly won't miss out on any skirmishes. This plane, unlike other aircraft, features six .50 caliber guns, rather than the 20mms you might be familiar with by now. This does mean you'll have a little more trouble breaking through tough aircraft but if you don't feel like gunning your foes down, shoot them with a missile. The Skirmisher introduces two new AARM-series missiles to the table, and they're pretty much useless against anything with decent countermeasures. But against all the planes unfortunate to lack countermeasures, they prove virtually unstoppable.The Skirmisher also sports unique armor, with most of the aircraft following a standard HP stat around 300-400, whilst the main wing has roughly 1000 HP stat. Whatever you do, avoid turnfighting this thing. The Shirmisher is nimble, not as good of a pitcher as say the A2R5, but definitely comparable.

Trivia

-In the lore, the Skirmisher is only a year older than the A-53A Brisker.
-I'm absolutely sure the Skirmisher is American because it has six .50 caliber machine guns. Based on other planes like the P-51, F4U, F-86 and more, must be American.
-I have no idea why, but the Skirmisher gives me snake vibes.
-I originally wanted it to look lowkey disturbing and/or awkward, but I honestly think it's one of the coolest-looking FSF planes yet. Sometimes failure isn't always a bad thing I guess. Sometimes.
-The hunger never stops- even right now, the F-54A is claiming a body in the thumbnail, specifically a MuG-4.
-Since the Warhead's missiles are intended to be rockets, the Skirmisher in the first FSF plane to truly possess missiles.
