The F124A "Shark Tooth" is a 1970s United British Royalist State (UBRS) interceptor. It comes equipped with a 20mm Vulcano chaingun (its a UBRS modification for the Vulcan) and can be outfitted with other weaponry. It is relatively agile.

Development: During the late 50s the English Electric Lightnings and Hunter (and it variants) were becoming relatively obsolete, so a new aircraft was needed to replace at least one currently used aircraft. The.F124A was originally supposed to be a multirole but things changed once F4 Phantom 2s came from the US, so the aircraft was redesigned as a Interceptor. The F124A was completed in 1971 and imediatly entered service.

Controls: Standard plane controls.
