The SNAW F-61 "Butcher" is a last-generation fighter with stealth capabilities, supercruiser and extremely agile despite the absence of thrust vectoring or other artifices.

Fast enough - about Mach 2 - allows you to intercept enemy aircrafts both at long range and in the middle distance, and also in close combat, thanks to the two missiles Guardian, the two Interceptor, and a mighty cannon impressive firepower. The cannon can also damage ground targets, such as bridges, but is not able to sink ships. The missiles are housed in the ventral and wings holds, and are extracted only when necessary to fight, improving both the stealth capability that those aerodynamic.

The model is enriched by many details, so it has a significant aerodynamic drag. It tends to lose energy faster when flying with low-thrust engine and without post burner.
