The EVOLUZIONE

Backstory:

Nightworks found that the F717 design had a lot of potential and decided to improve upon it.

Thrust Vectoring and complete wing redesign gave birth to the EVOLUZIONE LONGTAIL.

This 5 Generation Fighter was designed to offer huge maneuverability at supersonic speeds without ripping its self apart and designed to endure the extreme heat at mach 3+. The EVO features a heat sheild on the underbody of the fighter with little drag produced and a fully Carbon fibre body reinforced with Titanium to offer light but durable strength till hypersonic speeds.

Nightworks Started development around 2015 updating the original F717 to become a fighter jet. Lots of elements were forced to be redesigned to be able to even compete with competitors like the F22 Raptor.

Action Groups:

1 for Afterburners
5 for arresting hook
6 to drop fuel tanks
7 to remove weapons
8 to toggle Thrust Vectoring
VTOL down to close weapon bays
