HF-11 Rapier

-- DESCRIPTION --
The HF-11 Rapier, is a 1st gen fighter and interceptor aircraft in service and also served as a patrol fighter. Initially it was used for usage of air superiority role along with NS.F-15 Serpent but what that worrying is the aircraft's maneuverability is so much terrible and the stall speed is quite high so it need an experienced pilots to fly it (I hope you're the one:)), so it better moved it's role to the interceptor role instead. And the most unique thing of this aircraft is it is the first aircraft that had a supercruise capability although it was the actual safe flatout.
