When the Accilian military's third generation jets were beginning to show their obsolescence, the Air Defense Department contracted Phoenix Industries Weapons Factory to conceive a radical new design to potentially change the course of aircraft design.
The result was the XF-44, which saw many teething troubles mostly regarding instability. As there was no other design like this at the time, no queues could be taken by other governments.
Nonetheless, the F-44A went into production, with considerable success. Being easily mach 2 capable, and carrying a decent payload at the same time. Since it's introduction, the F-44A saw adaptation into a carrier capable fighter, donning an arrestor hook and reinforced landing gear.
This remains the only Accilian carrier-based jet fighter to date, and, given the state of the Accilian navy, with only two medium-sized carriers, two cruisers, and a half a dozen destroyers, it was needed badly.

CONTROLS:
AG1&2: fire AMRAAMS
AG3: Fire Hellfires
AG4: Arrestor hook
AG5: Nosewheel steering

(sorry for the confuzzlement as this is actually a re upload after I realized that the trim was screwed up. The problem is solved now, so enjoy!)
(This is the only plane I have recently made or plan to make with mod parts. It is only for the immersion)
