F97C Jaguar Dragon

31.7k Mage2IsTriggered  5.5 years ago

The F97C "Jaguar Dragon" is an aircraft developed in the late 1960s and produced in the early 1970s, intended for conflicts with the USSR, but thanks to the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1976 due to internal strife and exagerated millitary spending, it was never used in combat, not even against the UER in the American-Eurasian War 10 years later. Carries 4 interceptors under the wings and 4 machineguns on the nose/intake.

Development: Other than the fact that it was developed by the North American Aviation Company in the late 60s and started production in the early 70s, nothing else is known about its development process, as the documents are, for some reason, still classified.

Controls: Standard plane controls.
VTOL for flaps.
