Auto Credit Based on SkyboardAviation's F24A VR Test

The F24A is the Air force model of the F24 family developed by Skyboard Aviation for the USAF. It emerged out of the 1986 LMF (Light multirole fighter) competition as a replacement for the F4 Phantom. Despite being an older airframe, it has been continually upgraded with advanced avionics and other things. It has been exported to over 15 NATO allies mainly due to it's flexibility. It is primarily used as a varying altitude, varying speed attack fighter and is known for its low altitude stability, smaller airframe, and maneuverability.
