TFX-014 SylphCat (Nemo)

2,115 Ouroboros  3.6 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Griffon1's [CLOSED] Ace Challenge!

Introducing....
TFX-014 "SylphCat" "Nemo"
The X variant of the standard TF-014 varies in a variety of aspects from avionics to weapons.
Main differences seen are the addition of canards, thrust vectoring, and the experimental LFCS (Laminar Flow Control System) that dramatically increases mobility.
For avionics, it has a ARN-072 AESA radar with an integrated Salamander fire control system for better weapon management.

This variant was meant solely for the Óskópnarian Federation ace, Nemo.

Lore for later, let's jump straight to the controls and stuff about the Aircraft itself

Controls
AG:1 Landing Hook
AG:2 TVC
AG:5 Discard pylons
Brake (airbrake and extend wings)

Armament
23mm chaingun with SniperOS
AGR with airburst shells (50shells)
QAAM pods (each with 6, total 12)
STDM magazines (each with 25, total 50)
ABMM pods (each with 90, total 180)
Credits to NerfAddict for the FT from his NF-18, and others who've helped test this giving valuable feedback

Character Backstory
As the second world war ended, Óskópnaria along with the former allied nations went into the Cold War era.
During this very time, Overseer Xevious of the O-9 Council was supervising a project, one that would yield one the finest Aces.
The name "Nemo" was referred to him as none knew who this unknown Ace was, besides only going by two callsigns, Epsilon#8 and Zero#8, indicating he had flown along with the famed Asamian Zero Sqaudron at some time, particularly during the Intruder War.

PS:
this is pretty much an offshoot from the original SylphCat for a previous challenge, thought I'd submit a far better one.
On a last note, this thing is purely meant as an arcade fighter, so don't expect a bit of realism on this.
Enjoy
Regards
--- Overseer Xevious

    Forgot to add but, if you wanna try some PSM manuvers, in current state it won't
    However by a small minor change
    changing the mass of the yellow bladed engine
    from 0 to 0.35

    @Souka the crushing part as I discovered is the STDM magazines snitching around, so remove/detach it mid flight and it won't explode
    And damn, didn't know about the zero system

    Sylphcat, very agile, but at same time its was very stable, having such alot of firepower, make this a deadly aircraft, but..when its do high manuver, the G force actualy start crushing the aircraft it self, thats the only weakness i discovered, if Nemo fly this thing, not even Zero System that can predicted future can help the pilot to take down this aircraft
    (why i feels like briefing my pilots to shoot down this thing)
