The Tomcat's successor!

Author's Note: I am really proud of this plane. Its one of the best looking and best flying ive built, and i hope you like it as much as i do. Ill upload a variant made by my friend @Ferrolon in the near future.

Introduction: The FM-34A "Animosity" is a 4.5 Gen Aurelian variable geometry carrier based fighter, designed to compete against the Osean F-14 Tomcat. It features good manouverability, relaiabilty, speed and is cheap to produce. It carries 1 machinegun, 2 LRAAMs and 64x Countermeasures.

Development: During the 1980s, Aurelia was behind most nations in terms of air power. Due to that fact, they started investing heavily in new military aircraft to offset their weaknesses. After the release of the Osean F14 Tomcats and Yuketobanian SU23 Floggers, Aurelia initiated "Project Animosity", with the objective of creating a capable Swing Wing fighter for their airforce and navy. The FM-34A was unveiled in 1985 and was a wild success during simulated combat testing. It entered service in 1986.
