Auto Credit Based on mikoyanster's Advanced Jet Trainer Challenge [FINISHED]

The Vipera is a modern Advanced Jet Trainer designed to prepare pilots for 5th and upcoming 6th generation fighter aircraft.
To prepare pilots for modern fighter aircraft, the Vipera is capable of supersonic flight and features thrust vectoring nozzles which allow the pilots in training to experience high turn rates and prepare for strenuous dogfights.
The Vipera also functions as a live firing platform with wing mounted guns and both Interceptor and Guardian missile systems.
It draws it's inspiration from the current fleet of USAF fighters including the F-16, F15 and F-22, allowing familiarisation of performance and handling for the future fighter pilot.
