Information
The F/A-34A Eclipse is a 4.5+ Generation Multirole Fighter Aircraft developed in response to the aging F/A-18E/F Super Hornet Fleet's. The F/A-34A Eclipse is also called the Hyper Hornet by Pilots who originally flew the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.

The Eclipse is a modern design built by McDonnell Douglas as a multirole platform to aid any and all F-28A Tomcat II's, it can carry x5 internal weapons and x2 EWP's externally, it uses alot of similar tech to the F-28A Tomcat II and F-35 platforms in that, it uses the same EOTS camera seen on F-35's and F-28's alike.
