"Nobody liked the damn things. Flying in or against a Starfighter is liable to getting you killed. In combat, enemy pilots tell me that they dread flying against the Starfighter because they're so damn small and fast that you can't see them until they shoot you down. And we don't like it because landing this thing is really a controlled collision into the runway."
-Lt. Michael Garcia, 121st Fighter Squadron, Paternian Air Force Reserve.

This may seem like a double upload, but the original was a terrible build that I should have fixed. I will assure you this will not happen again. Controls are identical to predecessor. An F-104 Starfighter in Paternian Air Force service. In the Command and Conquer roleplay, the F-104 is a Paternian aircraft designed by Kelly Johnson and manufactured by Lockheed. Introduced in 1955 (RP), it was one of the most advanced aircraft in its era.

One of the first production aircraft that can pass Mach 2 in level flight and featuring performance so incredible that NASA astronauts train in it, it is a true man in a missile. A difficult t machine to fly, it was typically given to more experienced Paternian Air Force Reserve units than the regular Paternian Air Force. In addition, they were mainly employed as a fighter, the fighter-bomber role taken over by the F-4 Phantom II. As a result, losses in the Paternian Air Force were relativley low compared to other operators. In air combat, the F-104 proved effective, with its small radar cross section, incredible performance, and hit and run attacks making quick work of heavier and clumiser fighters.
