ALX-034''StormVelox''
Super Heavy All Weather Interceptor ALX-034 "StormVelox"
performance data
The total length: 33.83 M
The wingspan: 17.86m
Machine height 6.21m (pulley), 5.27m (smooth)
Empty weight: 27671kg
Maximum internal fuel volume: 25201kg
Standard takeoff weight: 58872kg
Maximum takeoff weight: 61637kg
Engine:
Two TRRE-15 ramjet combined cycle engines
Military Thrust: 184kn
Afterburner thrust: 248kn
Altitude of 18000m and Mach 2.0 Thrust: 135KN
Cruise Mach number Ma 1.8-2.7
The maximum level flight Mach number: 5.75ma
Cruise lift to drag ratio 8.2
Practical ceiling 32500m
The operational radius is 4000km
Transfer range 10700km (Full internal fuel with 2x auxillary comformal tanks in the main weapon bay)
Controls:
Ventral heavy hardpoint: Mounted XH-53 severe case supersonic anti-ship missile, can be launched at any time, need to launch before opening the belly magazine.
Activate1: Switch engine mode. The auxiliary inlet in the back opens and the engine switches to ram/scramjet mode.
Activate2: Expand main magazine (activate CS-7A Hypersonic Cruise Missile)
Activate3: Expand secondary magazine (activate 8× AIM-134Infrared guided air-to-air missile and 8× AIM-9 short-range infrared guided air-to-air missile)
Activate4: Activate ADMM
Activate5: Discard all external mounts
Activate6: Remove angle of attack limiter (may cause stall, use with caution)
Activate7: Activate the emergency landing arrest hook, also can be used for empty aircraft carrier landing.
VTOL down: Flaps
VTOL up: Air Brake
Break: Air Brake and reverse thrust
Design features:
Adopt a real new concept airfoil for transonic and hypersonic aerodynamics.
The results show that the engine has a wide range, flexible and convenient thrust regulation ability in a wide Mach number working range, which can meet the requirements of smooth relay in high and low speed channels, and has the advantages of acceleration, maneuvering flight and high Mach number cruise.
Some beautiful pictures of this work.
Here are some of my best friends who helped me build this plane. I extend my sincerest thanks to them.

@NewmanSTAR oh I haven’t seen that thrust reverser (I just saw it on instructions) I was struggling to slow down and the air brake wasn’t enough for my Mach 1 Ryanair landings
@Digi I actually made a thrust reverser, which is probably more effective than a drogue parachute, relative to the mass of the airframe.
@NewmanSTAR no problem (btw I suggest adding parachutes to slow it down because it really helps) (every hypersonic build I get doesn’t have parachutes and I have to add them)
@Digi I wanted to do it too, but I didn't have the technical skills to support it at the time
To clear up confusion, ramjets aren’t the same as scramjets, ramjets will work to about 5 Mach and scramjets are more powerful (I think)
Best fighter ever, although it’d be cool if this had a cockpit and more powerful ramjets or smh
This would be best plane i’ve ever seen if it had a detailed cockpit
@SkyJayTheFirst Have a good day!
@NewmanSTAR I'll probably do that then. Thanks for letting me know!
@SkyJayTheFirst When I made this plane, the label parts were not yet updated in the game, so I used the fuselage to make them. However, now you can use label or other functions such as fill fuselage to save parts and achieve better results
@NewmanSTAR I was just wondering if there was a specific technique to doing it, like using fuselage pieces or labels, or something. Guess I'll have to download this build and find out.
@SkyJayTheFirst arbitrarily lol
Perhaps you can refer to various real-life aircraft flaps and skin structures, but more importantly, you can use your imagination to create the aircraft you imagine. ^_^
@NewmanSTAR I get that this is an old post of yours and you likely won't see this comment, but in the event you do, I wanna know. How do you get those thin black lines on the fuselage and wings that make it look more detailed and futuristic? I wanna do that with my next upcoming build, but don't know how to do it.
@NewmanSTAR can you turn it into a Sweep wing fighter?
How did you get those screenshots for the plane, what reshade settings are you using? They look gorgeous
2728 parts?
@NewmanSTAR k
@aojun I'm making something interesting lol)
@NewmanSTAR and why are you not uploading planes?
@NewmanSTAR oh ok
@aojun lol It's really similar in terms of body shape
is that A XFA 33?
My Phone was BROKEN!
landing gear is laggy
Paneling is always a pain in the neck.
