This aircraft follows all the basic requirements to be automatically spawned by the A.I. It is ideally able to take off and land safely at the game's main airports. it is also a playable aircraft, you can enjoy aerial collisions, target shooting or Just enjoy more realistic and diverse air traffic in the game.

This is my recreation of the F-35A a multi-role and multi-variant Stealth Fighter produced by Lockheed Martin. I've spent 78 hours on it and have put many various details into it while focusing on the part friendly A.I. compatibility and functionality/design of this Fighter trying to make it look as realistic as possible for 96 parts. I've had a lot of delay type problems, one of the most time consuming was the full automation of the Fly by Wire systems due to a roll glitch that happens with the Landing Gear joystick cause otherwise it would Roll right when you pitch up or Left when you pitch down so I had to make an IAS controll system for all the controll surfaces (it took like 25 hours). On top of this I had to do at least 6 hours of research to make this thing as real as possible. With that being said and/or as stated this plane is A.I., however some people's devices may have problems with the Spawn Rate, if you have a problem like this then you can simply remove the Text Decals to meet your need, or if you're to lazy there is a Basic Version down in the description.

What you're seeing now was not meant to be released until later near July but I have decied to release this because it's been almost 1 and a half years since I have uploaded something. The main reason why this was built was just to gain my SP sanity back after building a complex 1,600 part Fighter that still is not released because im still filiming (granted I would not still be if I filmed instead of building this) but none the less I started building it. However then something changed forever 4 months ago, the Legend himself MAPA left SP and with an idea and also pretty much the only one with the will/knowledge to, I decided to carry on his legacy one plane at a time.

The way I plan on this is by building some of the aircraft that I pinned in the comments but I also plan on reading all the request made by the SP community on all of MAPA's posts and I plan to build those. Unlike MAPA I will however include a PEW version of the AI aircraft (just a simple +10 part plane with a little more detail) I however will not take community suggestions as I am simply filling past orders and once filled would build what I want/feel to.

Anyway that's the rift and this is one of many aircraft to be built this summer. I will not spend neary as much time on them as this aircraft because this, out of all the ones I plan on building, (other than the F-22) is the hardest to make. It should be smooth sailing from here either way what gets built this year, gets built then when the year ends, and SP2 comes out I will begin production on the Ultimate project, untill then if you like this post leave a Upvote... MB21 out.
