Interceptor Challenge Flyfabrikken J-12 Super Jerv
Based and expanding upon my previous Flyfabrikken designs, the J-12 Super Jerv is a fictional air to air optimised variant of my light attacker, the FA-10 Jerv, which itself was based on my T-9 Gaupe.
Not really much of a back story to this one, apart from that this design is born out of the cancellation of the RnoAF order for the F-35, caused by the political backlash when President Trump was caught on camera during a visit to Bodø calling the Norwegian prime minister, Arna Solberg;
"Fat. Like really fat. Its true. It is. I wouldnt grab her by the p..."
This resulted in the express cancellation of the F-35 order, a hiatus on all military cooperation in the arctic between the two nations and very nearly a formal declaration of war (she is quite fat and, well, the truth hurts...). Oh, and in a rush order to Kjeller Flyfabrikken for a multi role fighter, capable of everything the F-35 can do, but cheaper and with locally sourced parts.
The result was an extensive re design of the existing FA-10 Jerv fighter bomber. Re winged, re engined and with a rotary cannon internally mounted in the nose, she packs quite the punch.
Quite easy to fly, reasonably agile (she kicks the shiznit out of my other two entries) and with good low speed handling, the controls are;
Ag1. Drop external tanks.
Ag2, 3, 4. Jettison missiles (dumb fire)
Ag5. Lights
Ag6. Landing drogue.
Have fun.
