Following the recent development of the AZ-SMF-01B and it's failure in the world's aerospace market, the United Socialist States of Zvarinograd decided it needed considerable upgrades. Therefore, we are developing a new variant that retains the manueverability of the original air superiority fighter but with stealth capabilities and an upgrade in speed.

when will it be availible and will it be able to launch from carriers.
Zvarinograd

We can not retrofit this fighter to become a carrier based plane as it's frame is specifically made for manueverability but the land-based version will be available for sale in a month or two. (1-2 days real time)

Pre-orders are now declared available, however note that the fighter is still yet to be developed.

Confirmed. Total cost of $1,875,000,000.

Pwnica will preorder 50.
We'll wire the total when they are completed.

Sacrificing a small amount of manueverability, the development of the AZ-SMF-02 "Deux ex Machina"'s modification from the original AZ-SMF-01B "Blitz" is now complete. Not only does the United Socialist States of Zvarinograd take pride in it's new low profile (it is not completely stealth, the material may null the radar, but it isn't going to help against IR systems much.) but it's upgraded speed and ability to be quickly modified for either Eastern or Western ordnance as well.

While i like the fighter i have something of very similar design and also heres a question, how do you make a cockpit G proof?
10-10-2003, 02:29
Ill take 210.

That would be $5,250,000,000, Confirmed.

Take the principle of the gyroscope; a wheel or disk mounted to spin rapidly about an axis and also free to rotate about one or both of two axes perpendicular to each other and to the axis of spin so that a rotation of one of the two mutually perpendicular axes results from application of torque to the other when the wheel is spinning and so that the entire apparatus offers considerable opposition depending on the angular momentum to any torque that would change the direction of the axis of spin.

If you mount two gyroscopes with their axles at right angles to one another on a platform, and place the platform inside a set of gimbals, the platform will remain completely rigid as the gimbals rotate in any way they please. This is this basis of inertial navigation systems (INS).

At least, theoretically this would work applied on the aircraft. Beh. Maybe I should go and try to research it out.

OOC, what is the alloy's composition?
Zvarinograd
10-10-2003, 13:24
OOC:
Titanium-vanadium-aluminum with carbon additions, the ratio however remains a secret. It's unlikely you can get the right combination to steal it from me. :P
