TFX-014 SylphCat (Nemo)
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

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
@LunarEclipseSP it very much is AC3 inspired
(still working on a wholly new airframe, no TBA yet)
Ace Combat 3 reference
...Wait a second...
.
Nemo is that you? lol
@ThomasRoderick my that's interesting
Also quite a fitting song ngl
@Sarnnox I'm sure by a lot
Jk man, you got some sweet builds
@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
@ThomasRoderick that's quite poetic
@HTTPCREATION1O2 yeah, the Weapons alone make it eye watering
Had to use a seperate one without Weapons for the screenshots
Ouch the part count
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)
ourobruh
Nice
Oh crap, The People's Republic of Jacomia needs to upgrade their airforce!
One of the few reasons why I keep away from your nation
