I introduce to you the final product of the next generation strike program, another black project in a joint effort by Timberwolf Innovations that upgrades ConstipatedWhale's T-3 trainer into a next generation infiltrator/strike aircraft. This is the 3rd generation and final product of the project.

The Starwing is a dedicated strike aircraft with limited air-to-air capabilities for self-defense and is by no means a dogfighter. Equipped with stealth technology, it is designed to infiltrate deep into enemy territory with a wide range of weapons to deal maximum damage with precision behind the front lines and return safely. This aircraft has the means to end hideous wars in a definitive and elegant manner.

The Starwing boasts stealth capabilities with several design changes to the original:
Intakes moved to above fuselage to reduce radar detection
Exhaust moved to above fuselage
Engine sound reduced by 60%
Tail removed and all control surfaces moved to the wings
Weapons all moved to internal weapon bays
Uses airbrakes as opposed to vertical stabilizers for Yaw control
Added air-to-air refueling
Equipped with weapons unique only to the T-3 and her family

Weapons:
Eagle Mk.3: Hyper-velocity air-to-air BVR radar missile
Lynx Mk.3: Short-range air-to-air dogfight missile with IRCCM
Dispenser Mk.3: Rapid-fire multi-lock (rapidly change targets when firing) precision-guided missiles
Raven Mk.3: Laser-guided anti-armor missiles
HVARM Mk.3: Hyper-Velocity-Anti-Radiation-Missile

Activation Groups:
1: Master Arm On
3: Mid-air refueling probe
7: Cockpit
