What happens when is squirrel industries decides to make an overkill aircraft? You get the ES-63-1 this is an aircraft that is not only loaded with weapons but has a stupidly large amount of agility to the point where you can turn on a pinhead, thanks to its light weight and 3 surface layout. I know it's completely unrealistic but just stay with me on this one. The ES-63 is of course a stealth aircraft of a fifth generation spec that comes equipped in a compact size, with supercruise ability and not only that but internal weapons as well, which include 4 interceptors and 2 Guardian missiles.
The ES-63 also comes equipped with 3D thrust vectoring to make it’s agility that little bit more unrealistic however in does make for some very nice aerobatic manoeuvres.
Sadly, to emphasise how dated this aircraft is it has already been replaced by numerous aircraft including the AS-1 Aurora aircraft, which has yet to be publicly uploaded.

@Squirrel i cant remember the designation but you have an A-10-esque build im excited to see
@Carbonfox1 Thank you. I've got a massive backlog of aircraft and I thought I should probably make an effort to do something about it. To put it into perspective, I'm on ES-82 now... As well as the ES series, I'm on SB-17 (only got up to SB-9 uploaded) and I've also started an elite AS series with 4 aircraft in including an airship. So I've probably got a backlog of around 30 aircraft, not including upgrades/derivatives I've made to all of those aircraft (uploaded and not uploaded.
@Squirrel oh good deal, i have seen some nice builds in the forums from you
@Carbonfox1 Thank you. I don't upload often because I have to disable all the mods, close the game and then relaunch it in order to do so, which is a bit of an inconvenience. However, I've disabled them all for now and intend to upload a few builds within the next week or so.
Nice to see you posting builds again...great jet btw
