F-18 FAUCON

The Faucon is a semi-stealth twin-engine all-weather air superiority fighter in development by Pionier Dynamics

Developed under the AFCS Hellfire program, the Faucon will be the Federation's new standard fighter.

Contrary to popular belief, no RAM paint was used on the plane to reduce costs, but due to its fuselage shape, it can perform very well when flying unarmed.

It will set a new record as it is the last dedicated fighter aircraft in the world, because this aircraft does not carry any air-to-ground munitions, nor was it developed to carry it.

Development

Developed due to the intense arms embargoes imposed on the Federation and the renewed arms race, Faucon will be the best representative of its kind.

No one expects great export success from this aircraft as it was developed purely for Air-Air combat.

General characteristics

Firepower:
In addition to the Interceptor LRAAMs and Guarian SRAAMs that make up the full range of firepower, it has a machine gun in its nose.

Stealth

As we said, the aircraft does not have any in-body weapon station and no RAM paint was used, but the fuselage design provides great advantages if this aircraft is flown unarmed.

Bugs Found
"Interceptor" Missiles explode when firing
Solution: Turn off "collision" of all Missiles
Note: I have never tested the "Guardian" Missiles, probably the same problem, if there is such a problem, turn off the collision of the Guarian Missiles
