TN #230, 7th Tactical Fighter Wing, Philippine Air Force

The Maya is a 2 seater trainer aircraft that is intended to replace the aging AS-211 Warriors. It is a trainer jet, yes, but it can carry more munitions than the predecessor.

The wings are utilized by the machine guns to store ammo, therefore necessitates the use of wingtip tanks. It also has seven hardpoints and a FLIR ball. The ball also automates the process of guiding the Paveway III bombs into the target, thereby easing the load of the WSO.

It also looks like a sick mix of the F-5, MB-339 and the BAe Hawk, so there's that.

Removed Features:

1. Cockpit Avionics
   I was supposed to add the avionics suite I made a while back, but I eventually removed it because it was too partcount demanding. As you may know I am on a potato i3 laptop. So I eventually removed it.

2. Landing Gear Heading Lock
   To reduce the plane's tendency to veer off the runway, the plane's nose gear was supposed to have an active correction system, activated by AG8. But the code is unfinished and is having a boatload of bugs (I even asked for Spefyjerbf's help).

Don't worry though. I will add these to the next plane I'll be building. For now, enjoy the Maya.

Happy Flying!
