General Dynamics TF-1 Pharaoh

306 EthanolAerospace  one month ago

The TF-1 "Pharaoh" is an Electronic Warfare strike fighter, primarily designed for hit-and-run scenarios and fast-paced interceptions. Equipped with an experimental HFSJ-X1 "Evil Eye" Radar Jammar, the TF-1 is able to dissapate and deflect incoming radar signals to inhibit detection and prevent enemy lock-on. First entering the prototype stages in 2036, the Pharaoh was put into full production for the U.S. Air Force in 2040. It continues to be a mainstay on countless American airbases across the globe. It most notably had the first U.S. Air-to-Air kill in 2041, just a year after deployment. Jared Stafford, a reknowned USAF strike pilot, was tasked with intercepting two rogue Russian SU-57s that illegally entered U.S. airspace in Alaska, acting against the interest of the Russian goverment (at least according to european intelligence). He shot down one, and the other retreated, recording the first air-to-air kill by a U.S. pilot since 2027. AG1 for canopy, 2 for lights.
