XS-72A Stealth Jet
The XS-72 is a bit of a rushed job since I just wanted to get some creativity out of my mind quickly.
Controls:
AG1 - Thrust Vectoring
AG2 - Engine Trim
VTOL - Flaps (down) Spoilers (up)
Trim - Trim
Brake - Airbrake
The aircraft pitches up a lot so use trim as needed.
AWCT LORE:
In the 1970s the Democratic Territories Defense Agency (DTDA) launched a competition in order to create a stealth aircraft, Ckhee Air submitted the XS-72A, (Designated Experimental Stealth-1972) The XS-72A was made to counter the Krykan increasing anti-air power. In the 2nd Krykan war, Kryka flew into the Air Force in which the XS-72 was being stored, the XS-72 was able to destroy all enemy aircraft without detection. But this would be the only use of the XS-72A outside of testing, its successor, the S-84 would feature a far more stealthy design and was highly effective in its use amongst the Democratic Territories of Cascadia and United States of America.
The design of the XS-72 was basic, while showing basic stealth capabilities in its geometry and using radar absorbing paint, the aircraft had very basic stealth abilities when compared to its successor. The XS-72 was also one of the first aircraft in the Cascadian air force to had ever used Thrust Vectored Controls. (Though not in the actual plane) The X-72 was also one of the DTC's first non-bomber aircraft to have not used an internal weapons bay.
Though none are confirmed, there are many rumors that either USSR or Krykan spies had managed to steal some sort of blueprints used for the XS-72 due to the Krykan G-8 fighter, which while not having stealth technology, did feature a very similar design to the XS-72.
