The Skyboard Aviation F26a 'Kestrel' is a light, multirole fighter designed for the United States Air Force. It is described by allies as an "Alien F16." The Russian president Sergi Koshnikov described it as "A scarily capable dogfighter that still somehow manages to be an invisible threat to ground forces. It is one of the first fighters to fly stabially withought vertical tailfins. It was made as a counter to the chinese J35, and is very efficient in both BVR and WVR engagements. Its first flight was July 4th, 2038, and it entered service on November 24th, 2042. Combined with its maneuverability, awareness, and speed, its stealth has earned it the nickname, the child of the F22, F16, F15, F18, F35, and A10. It features the unique ability to take off from aircraft carriers and runways, making this one version able to be used by the USAF and USN, reducing costs.
