SF-2A Sparrow TB
Advanced experimental strike fighter, designed to enter and exit enemy-controlled airspace quickly. It was intended to drop its ordnance at high speed, intercepting enemy aircraft or leaving the operation area unscathed.
Originally designed as a technology demonstrator, it incorporates many advanced technologies, such as a mono-wing design and thrust vectoring. Given the circumstances at Snowstone, the company responsible for this aircraft has decided to use it in combat for additional "testing".
Given its speed, it can only store munitions within its weapon bay, which limits its total capacity.
NOTE: Capable of dogfighting/heavy maneuvering after enabling thrust vectoring and dropping all ground ordnance.
NOTE: Bay doors will open if the selected weapon is activated. Such weapon must be deactivated in order for the bay door to close.
NOTE: It's best practice to pitch up/maintain level flight when using or ditching ordnance, as pitching downwards may cause the munitions to collide with the aircraft!
