FA-15 Kicking Fish (Remaster)
THIS AIRCRAFT IS NOT MY OWN AND AS SUCH I WONT BE TAKING CREDIT FOR IT!!! The original aircraft was made by IcePhoenix, if you wish to view or download the original build just look at the auto-credit!
Short Fictional History:
None. As this aircraft is a remaster of a revamped stock kicking fish this plane doesn't have a place in my little universe. That being said though the livery is from my make believe world and the aircraft is somewhat similar to the in universe aircraft he uses.
Edwards Skyhopper, or known by his callsign "BOLT", was a young fighter pilot of the Eshal National Air Force who took part in the Ardineen war. Being raised with a military family and living close to an airbase helped shape Edwards to become a fighter pilot. being young, athletic, and smart helped him get into the air force, despite Eshals crisis and eventual new rule which had halted most military recruitments at the time. After passing training Edwards was put into the 328th squadron as Lio 3. Within the time he had in his squadron before the Ardineen war began Edwards always looked up to his squadron members, especially his team leader Henneth Liz or known by her callsign "Razorback". During the Ardineen war, Edwards had always felt confliction and disgust towards his Countries actions during the war thinking they were "rushed and un-coordinated". This was true as during the first years of the war Eshal had hoped to end the war early all in one fell swoop. Near the end of the war Edwards had enough of his country and had planned to defect to the enemy nation Acrea. This plan never came to fruition though as at the end of the war Eshal had a revolution and ended the 3 year long war. after the war The newly led Eshal had responded by apologizing for causing such a war and in the future joined the NUFP (Nations United For Peace). Here Edwards graduated into the NUFPs special Peace Keeping Force and had stayed in the force until his retirement.
A lot of this "lore" is pretty new, if I choose to, I might change some stuff in the future.

After flying this aircraft I noted that pulling the stick hard causes the aircraft to become unstable if done at high speeds. also landing is a bit hard as the landing gear legs are a bit stiff.
Conception:
This is actually my second remaster of this plane. being a first time downloader of this aircraft led to me modifying this particular plane for quite a while now. My first remake of this plane wasn't that special as I just gave it a basic 2 tone grey livery and shortened the canopy Height a bit. This remaster though has a lot more added to it. from a canopy made completely out of fuselage parts that is openable and able to be ejected, a somewhat more believable cockpit, a ton of more details, and a much better looking livery then my first just to list a few things.
my first version
Extra Stuff:
PLEASE give the original creator some love! I would hate for this to get really popular and people to think I made this my self. I did not, I just gave it a prettier look and some other functions. You should totally check some of his other builds, as some of the new ones are pretty good.
With this I conclude my old build posting, so from now on all my builds will be more current. don't expect me to release them like hot cakes though. building takes time for me and I don't have all the time in the world nowadays.
Thanks for checking out "my" build post, stay safe, and don't forget to drink milk to become big and strong :)
