Fighter Jet Challenge Entry: JS-40 Spectre

Auto Credit Based on Someguywhomakesmods's Fighter jet challenge

Have you ever wanted a Eurofighter with thrust vectoring, really weird wings, and kinda looks like a funky F-18 for some reason? No?

I apologize in advance, the cockpit is very rudimentary. The plane works fairly well, though it can be finicky at times. Activations are as follows
AG-1: Canopy
AG-2: HUD Backlight (I thought it would do something to help with its visibility [it doesn't])
AG-3: Drag Chute
AG-4: Arm Missiles
AG-5: Jettison Missiles
AG-6: Jettison tank
AG-7: Eject (I was having some funky, annoying, stupid, weird, stupid collision issue with the canopy's detacher so hit AG-1 before ejecting)
AG-8: TVC
Note: Front gear being taller than back was not incidental, I wanted it to have that same nose rise as the actual Eurofighter without making it still have it in forward flight

    @Cuboidable sorry about that, I wanna say it's fixed on my other but lemme check. I also barely ever pull downwards

    @Theinfinite Yeah I noticed that, realistically I need to get more weight in the back and try to balance it first past that I'll find some way to do give it a better turn rate but balancing would likely help

    @SchmoovestoftheSchmoove maybe making it more stable it kinda flys like a brick no offense

    @Theinfinite tysm, btw sorry I didn't realize the couple mistakes (two empty pylons, right side not detaching when jettisoned) I'd made with the weapons, they were one of the last additions and the wing tanks escaped my mind. Did you notice anything that could potentially make it better?
