The Peregrine Banshee is a multirole light fighter. Its purpose is to provide high performance and greater flexibility at a less astronomical price point than other Peregrine aircraft. Block 5 is an early model, roughly accurate to pre-1993 Gen-IV jets.
Armament
The jet carries two [modded] missile types:
4x LRAAM (S) Mk.II (Long Range SARH AA missile) [Looks like a stretched guardian]
4x Talon Mk.II (Short Range Heat Seeking missile) [Looks like an interceptor]
1x Peregrine AGU-3a 30mm Cannon (completely average gatling gun)
A few countermeasures
Controls
Activator 1: Landing Gear Light
Activator 2: Navigation Lights
Activator 3: Anti-collision Lights
Activator 4: Night Vision
Activator 5: Release Drop Tanks
Activator 6: Landing Parachute (mainly for emergencies)
VTOL: Flaps
Trim: Refueling Probe
Note: It is absolutely possible and recommended to change the loadout of the plane as needed. Being a multirole fighter, it can and will be able to function in a strike role with rockets, air to ground missiles, and bombs. The AA missiles are more realistic than basic SP ones in that there is no "lock time", just an instantaneous lock acquisition.
As always,
Enjoy!

I've got a Block 45 version ready (supposed to be modern model) but I've got to XML mod some interceptors to get some nice Fox-3s. No idea what i'll do for Fox-2s. Might not have any
@greasytortle Thanks! I meant to take in inspiration from the Falcon and (mainly) Hornet as well as a (very) little bit of MiG-29
Nice! It looks like a mix between a Falcon, Hornet, and a little bit of a Tomcat.
