Armament: One GSh-30-1 30mm cannon on the nose, One Raysia Arms FC-216 Flak Cannon mounted on a turret above the fuselage, plus up to 20,000 lbs including R-73/R-77 AAMs, ASMs, QAAMs, bombs, rockets, drop tanks, and/or ECM pods carried on fourteen external points.

Unique Features: The turret mounted Flak Cannon with 35 ammo, Quad-rudders/tails, 3D thrust vectoring, "Blaster" pods, all are Carrier capable, and can take perform STO with fully pressurized "Blaster" jets. Radar signature easily confused for a Mig-29, and has SuperManeuverability comparable to the Su-37 or F-22. Has built in reconnaissance equipment such as a digital Camera. Missiles can fire any direction.

Computers: Advanced Autopilot to automatically land the plane on a carrier or runway in case the pilot gets knocked out or any other emergency like that, may be engaged by C&C or a wingman. The HUD is used in tandem with the "VisorScreens," which is a display projected onto the Visor of the Pilot's helmet, and uses a sort of compass in tandem with the computer that can allow him to see highlighted targets in any direction, even what used to be a blind spot beneath him or behind him. The 'VisorScreen' does not display the Altitude, pitch, and Speed like the HUD, as most pilots found this very confusing, but the 'VisorScreen' does control the Flak Cannon's direction.

Price: 45,000,000 (original RF-11 investors still get 50% discount)

in reality, doesnt it mean Reconaissance fighter, like the RF-111?Who cares? It's just like MiG or Su or An or Tu... perhaps I should change it, I forgot about the RF-111...

Plus, OOC, OT, the AF in AF-100 doesnt stand for Attican Fighter, it stands for Attack Fighter :)

nah, now that I remember it, RF-111 was a subdesignation, the plane is really just the F-111... so I'll keep the RF designation.

Plus, OOC, OT, the AF in AF-100 doesnt stand for Attican Fighter, it stands for Attack Fighter :)*shrugs* oh well, as long as I don't double up on any designations I am fine.

RF-111 mcuh cooler, we still use 'em

ROFL the RF-111 is hardly a match for the RF-11... especially considering the RF-11 is a dogfighter :)

I seriously doubt the RF-111 wold compare to even the RF-12 :P

could carry more weapons though
