This is a much improved version of the beta test I already posted. It is much more maneuverable and faster (than the other plane, much like the enemy MiGs) in extended wing mode, extremely stable in both extended and swept wing modes, and has some new styling features to finish off the look. I've added back in the VTOL engine and linked this with the Slider the same as the wing mechanism effectively giving the pilot a boost when in the low drag mode. 650+ Cruise speed with wings extended, 1150+ cruising when swept when you feel the need for speed, and up to 1300 when you want to beat Viper to the hard deck. At various speeds the plane is also stable with the wings slightly swept forward, and in the 400mph danger zone the pitching effect is much like vectored thrust. This obviously isn't a feature of the real plane. Enjoy!

P.s. get your fishing net handy for that fly by...The dock of the bay! Ok, I think I've gone too far with this, but seriously, catch some fish, I sustained sub 10ft in swept mode for about 20 seconds in this plane.

    Very good looks, decent handling while wings forward, high speed while swept back(although poor handling), and able to land ok on a carrier with enough skill.

    Five stars, mainly because this plane is a beast, but also because of all the TopGun references in the description. This plane makes me want to ride into the danger zone.

    Very very well done, this thing even gives my F-357 Striker a run for it's money which coming from me means quite a lot. I just wish Jundroo would add all of the features this beast has to IOS.
