Auto Credit Based on Pilotmario's F-9C Dart II Fighter

"The F-9 is a truly wonderful fighter. Flying one makes you feel as if you were one of God's own angels dancing among the clouds."
-Col. Sergei Yakovich, Paternian Air Force, 171st Fighter Squadron.

(1) releases Interceptor missiles. (2) releases Guardian missiles. (3) activates navigation lights. (4) releases DIE pod. The Dragot Aerospace F-9D Dart II is the newest development in the relatively dormant F-9 series. Featuring improved aerodynamics and maneuverability, it is Paternia's primary air superiority fighter, replacing the difficult-to-fly F-7 Viper. The F-8 Cobra will remain in service as the primary fighter-bomber.

This example is fitted with a Destructive Interference Emissions pod, designed to cancel out radar waves in order to make it appear invisible to enemy radar. In addition, the high-efficiency turbofans allow for a smaller infrared signature and quieter operation.

    Turn on the COM/COL/COT indicator.

    Try keep the COM (red) in front of the COL (blue), and make sure that it remains so when there is no weapons in the aircraft. @Gmanndo1000
