Block 4 Major upgrades:
Enhanced Fiber Optic Trailing Decoy system activated by AG4 with severe electronic countermeasures, which is more than 90 percent effective for any kind of unprogrammable air-to-air missile and every kind of SAM within only some slight turns. However it could not be used while taking off or landing because the severe electronic countermeasure would greatly effect many electronic devices on the aircraft itself. To install this system on the plane and keep the plane working normally when releasing electronic countermeasures, the flight control system of this aircraft has been totally updated.

General instructions:
AG1: HIGH ANGLE OF ATTACK MODE AND Short runway FCS takeoff mode. Do not forget to open flap when AG1 is on.

AG2: Activate AGCAS Automatic ground collision avoidance system.



AG3: CLOS MODE, all the Weapon Command to line of sight of the cockpit, including guided rocket and minigun.
You should use CLOS mode in cockpit sight mode.
VTOL is for setting target altitude for AIM-7R CLOS mode, so it would not work for flap while AG3, do not AG3 while takeoff or landing.
AIM-7R CLOS mode instruction:
Using VTOL to adjust the altitude of target first before launch, then activate group 5 and launch the selected rocket, use the helmet-steered sight to look at the target at the same time and keep for about 1 second in normal speed. The Launched AIM-7R rocket will directly move towards any untagged target you selected seconds ago. It is especially useful for any ground target in any place, and even useful for untagged target.

AG4: Enhanced FOTD fiber optic Trailing Decoy with electronic countermeasures, it could not be used while taking off, landing or aiming at the target, because it would affect many of the devices on the plane itself.

AG5: Open rocket bay to activate air-to-air rockets. The upgraded AIM-7R is an unjammable air-to-air rocket. Each countermeasure is useless when faced with upgraded AIM-7R. Even when the enemy continuously releasing the countermeasures, you could still launch upgraded Aim-7R at the gap of the countermeasure release.
However, you should continuously switch on the selected rocket before it hit the target. For example, after you launch AIM-7RSparrow1, you should keep selecting AIM-7RSparrow1 before the rocket hit the target. You could only guide the rocket to one target at the same time.

AG6: Autopilot helps to aim at the target. With autothrottle when throttle from 30 percent to 70 percent.
When AG1 OR AG3 AT AG6 MODE, THE PLANE WOULD FLY LEVEL AND STRAIGHT by autopilot, the autopilot could automatically aim at the target only when AG1 AND AG3 are off.
AG7: Release arrest hook and enter aircraft carrier automatic landing mode, you need a little bit trimming while landing at different weight, the correct landing speed is about 400-450kmph, the correct altitude is 100m each 1.1km from aircraft carrier. Recommended using pilot cockpit sight. You need full flap and different trimming on different weight. Do not activate group 2 AGCAS while landing.

AG8: Activate 360-degree retractable 7.62mm minigun system. more than 12000 rounds per minute each side.
Tips:
So large trimming force that you could even sustainably turn the plane only by trimming the plane at mach 0.9. Superiority sustainable turning at M0.9 FOR 15deg per second. Very outstanding roll performance. Enabling to defend AIM9 or AIM120 air-to-air rocket in reality. Enemy would be hit within 2 kilometers away from the aircraft.
Afterburner on after 63 percentage throttle.

Main armament: AIM-7R

Block 3.5 naval major upgrades:
1. Redesigned inlet both improved its stealth performance and reduce drag.
2.Totally upgraded flight control system, greatly improved stability while at high angle-of-attack and high speed, and high symmetrical acceleration. Post-stall control performance increased.
3. Totally upgraded autothrottle performance, which greatly save fuel while AG6 and much more easier to control the plane landing on aircraft carrier by AG7.

F104-STOL-naval-version Stealth Starfighter block II new features:

1.Unjammable aerodynamic-controlled guided rocket. The upgraded AIM-7R is an unjammable air-to-air rocket. Each countermeasure is useless when faced with upgraded AIM-7R. Even when the enemy continuously releasing the countermeasures, you could still launch upgraded Aim-7R at the gap of the countermeasure release.
However, you should continuously switch on the selected rocket before it hit the target. For example, after you launch AIM-7RSparrow1, you should keep selecting AIM-7RSparrow1 before the rocket hit the target. You could only guide the rocket to one target at the same time.

For the guided rocket, refer to:https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/898i4s/AIM-7R-unjammable-guided-rocket-block-4

2.FOTD Fiber Optic Trailing Decoy have been employed and could be used by activate group4. It would easily mislead the rocket of enemy. Open guide head electronic false target, do not activate that on the ground, or you will destroy the plane.

F104 Stealth project aims at an extremely cheap very light stealth multipurpose aircraft for poor countries, or in less materials, cheaper price and mass production for larger countries. Equipped with a single RM8 ENGINE with thrust 112kN or a single F100 or F110 engine, It might become the lightest stealth fighter in the world, which might be very ideal for small countries to protect themselves without expensive heavy fighters. With the help of rearranged locations of wings and canards, plus new digital flight control systems, this plane is much safer and easier to control than original F104 nicknamed Widowmaker. Two stealth rocket pods are at the end s of the primary wings.
Speed M0.9 at sea level for sustained flight, speed M1.2 in diving at sea level is pretty safe.
M1.8 at 12000m, the same speed as SAAB 37.
Roll rate more than 360 degrees per second at 600kmph.

Its advantages in combat is mainly on very fast acceleration, very high climb rate, as well as high sustained turning about 16 degrees per second at 900kmph. Thanks to its high wing loading, the plane is extremely strong while diving and could reach and maintain a very terrifying speed.

However, when you are landing, you must change FCS flight control system control mode.

Its range is not fine, which is only about 1200km in normal fight. So please save fuel and please do not throttle to more than 63 percent throttle too often.
Its total fuel plus the wing-end pod is 4200L only, however this also is a little bit better than original F104.
