YF-43A1

600 Garrett1235  4.1 years ago

The YF-43 was a proposed replacement for the expensive and older F-35. The A1 model fixed some of the more egregious probles with the original design, such as the landing gear and lack of internal weapons bay. 2 conventional guns were added as well. This came at a cost, however, of lower top speed. AG1: Arrestor hook AG7:Drop Tanks AG2: Weapons Bay.
