Auto Credit Based on Ylem's Stealth CHALLENGE "CLOSED"

for challenge.

A what if future (say 2050) if Canada needed to get a stealth aircraft. Fictionally, due do its materials the sharp angles found in most stealth craft is not needed for this aircraft. Though its wing angles bounce radar signals around inside their designs to mitigate and scramble its signature. It has a large array of countermeasures for when it does get into trouble. It is designed for recon along the Canadian - Russian arctic zones, hence its unusual color for stealth aircraft. Other colors would include black for night, grey for general use, and blue for sea patrol.

Control: gentle throttle up to 30-40% for take off. Quite sensitive at max speed, so most bomb and missile runs are at 40-60% throttle max. Make sure to be level or nose up slightly before use of cleavers and bombs.

AG-1: Opens front bomblet bays.
AG-2: Drops all bomblets.
Countermeasures: enough to get you by for a while.

Note: couldn't quite get the rotating cockpit = stealth thing to work so left it out.
