F-70 Banshee

345 Osprey2008  6 months ago

The F-70 Banshee, referred to by pilots as: A flying brick. Was the Ospretanian Navy’s main fighter aircraft during the early years of new missile technologies. The whole idea of the F-70 was to shoot aircraft down without even being in the vacinity for the other aircraft to fight back. Basically a shadow fighter as the Ospretania Navy called it. During this period, wartime generals and aerosapace manufacturers kept pushing to the Ospretanian government that the age of Dogfighting was long past, and that missile technologies made the need for a dogfight obselete. Seeing this, the F-70 was manufactured without a gun. Persuaded by the idea of a missile bus; the Ospretanian Navy designed and produced the F-70 Banshee. However the Navy found during the Vihiekban war that this idea of dogfighting was still VERY MUCH present, as F-70’s were shot down by more maneueverable Vihiekban MOS fighters. This outcome pushed the need for air dominance fighter into the public eye, and demand for a air dominance fighter increased, however it had yet to come. - - - The F-70 Banshee is a Single seat, twin engine, dihedral elevator, swept wing fighter - interceptor designed by the Ospretania Navy before the Vihiekban war.

    @Ezucra hello! All my aircraft are based off of their real life alternatives, except for a few exceptions. check out some of my other creations to see. Such as the F-68 Kestrel Wich is just an F-16, the description of each aircraft has “lore” to the Ospretania Air Force and Ospretania Navy! :D
