The Gidi-95D Modernized (Version-2) is a high-performance multirole fighter jet developed by Ares Defense Systems, designed to dominate both air superiority and strike missions in modern combat environments. Building on the legacy of its predecessors, the Gidi-95D V2 integrates cutting-edge avionics, advanced aerodynamics, and the powerful G-53 "Magic" long-range missile, making it a formidable presence in any engagement.

At the heart of the Gidi-95D V2’s design is its variable wing sweep system, which allows the aircraft to adjust its wing geometry in-flight. For close-quarters dogfighting and maneuverability, the wings can be swept forward, maximizing lift and agility. When high-speed performance is needed, such as in interception missions or long-range engagements, the wings sweep back, reducing drag and enabling the jet to reach speeds of up to Mach 2. This versatility makes the Gidi-95D V2 effective across a wide range of combat scenarios, from low-speed tactical maneuvers to supersonic strikes.

To enhance its agility and control, the Gidi-95D V2 is equipped with double horizontal stabilizers on each side, a unique feature that significantly boosts maneuverability. These dual stabilizers provide enhanced stability during high-G turns, making the aircraft exceptionally nimble and responsive, even at high speeds. In dogfights, this feature gives the Gidi-95D V2 a significant edge, allowing it to outmaneuver many of its contemporaries.

The Gidi-95D V2 is designed to carry a wide array of modern weaponry, but its signature weapon is the G-53 "Magic" semi-radar locking missile, also developed by Ares Defense Systems. This missile, with its 50 km range, provides the Gidi-95D V2 with the capability to engage enemy aircraft well beyond visual range, giving it a significant advantage in long-range aerial engagements. With the G-53's high-speed and accurate guidance, the jet can strike at distant targets with deadly precision while relying on the aircraft’s powerful radar system to maintain lock throughout the missile’s flight.

To counter enemy defenses and improve survivability in hostile environments, the Gidi-95D V2 comes equipped with an impressive array of 60 countermeasures. These countermeasures allow the aircraft to effectively evade enemy missiles and radar locks, keeping it protected from both infrared-guided and radar-guided threats. The high volume of countermeasures ensures that even in extended combat engagements, the Gidi-95D V2 can remain in the fight, avoiding incoming threats while maintaining its own offensive capabilities.

Its radar system, optimized for long-range detection and tracking, is perfectly suited for guiding the G-53 "Magic" missiles to distant targets while scanning the battlefield for threats.

As a modernized version of the original Gidi-95 series, the Gidi-95D V2 has become a favorite among ace pilots and air forces looking for a versatile, high-performance jet. With its variable wings allowing it to adapt to different flight regimes and its compatibility with the powerful G-53 missile system, it stands out as a multirole aircraft that can excel in air superiority, interception, and precision strike missions.

Its ability to achieve Mach 2 speeds, maintain superior agility with its double horizontal stabilizers, and defend itself with a vast array of countermeasures makes the Gidi-95D V2 an ideal choice for modern, fast-paced warfare. The combination of cutting-edge technology, speed, and long-range firepower ensures that the Gidi-95D V2 is a key asset in maintaining air dominance for any nation equipped with this third generation fighter.

I just felt like modernizing one of my olds planes to look a bit better and fly a bit better.
