F-1990 “Starfury”
Background
Crossfire is proud to introduce the new semi-stealth fighter, the Starfury, as a high capability fighter aircraft. It will serve in the air forces of the United Kingdom of Aragon, with an estimated service life of 50 years, before a replacement is created for the next generation of fighters.
The aircraft was first introduced in 1990, and produced from 1996-2013, with a total of 250 aircraft built for domestic defense. Many more were built for export to friendly nations. There are a total of 10 Aragonian squadrons, with three squadrons in most regions, and four in the capitol region of the nation.

@ThatAsian667 tested, and helped with the overall aircraft design
@HalfACupOfRice gave good criticism on the design (I originally went with a plain delta)
@Julesonaut for saying he likes it
Controls
- Down VTOL for airbrake
- lower throttle to 5-8% to land, and do it softly.
- Take off with lower power (~33%), not with full power.
AG1 for forward gear control
AG2 to drop external pylons
AG3 for air refuel opening
A bunch of thingies
- The turnspeed at 3330 meters is roughly realistic
- Throttling properly helps with performing well
- A relatively light armament
- Custom gear
- Add-on missiles that don't come on the production variant normally
- Fixed a discolored light
- Photos below are nice
Aircraft has a lot of moving parts, even below 1000 parts

@Euvand Genius technique! How did you get the pictures in the description though?
@SuperStriker33 Thank you! There is actually a mod you can use to take screenshots in the game, but for this one i screenshotted my screen, edited it in an external program, then used the newer blueprints function to create a custom thumbnail. It even works on mobile!
First of all I love the plane!!! Secondly, I have a question. I'm kind of nooby, so I was wondering how uploaded custom descriptions with pictures because it looks far more elegant than the traditional style.
@Euvand mmmmmm thats cool btw I don't play Ace Combat I only watch videos about it
@MrShenanigans a fictional aircraft of my own design, but i did take a bit of inspiration from Ace Combat’s control systems + videos of irl aircraft maneuvers
Lemme guess mhhhhhhh an ace combat jet?
