The XF-108 was a proposal for a mach 3 interceptor capable of taking down Russion supersonic bombers. Due to budgetary issues, it was never built or flown ( just like every other cool aircraft or spacecraft design ever). This , as the title might suggest, is an improved version of my first version. It now comes with a lot more stability, a bit more speed, and a larger wing span. It also has a missle bay that is manipulated through the VTOL slider ( down to open and middle to close). NOTE: This plane likes to go nose down. Please enjoy! THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE ( An X-FILES reference for those who wanted to know)
