We have just finishe producing the F-42 for the KAF. The last F-42 rolled of the Air Force lines not long ago. Now, we are producing the F-42 solely for export and that means we get to give you what out planes have. So, we give to you the 'C Version' upgraded F-42!

F-42C Air Superiority Fighter

http://www.aerospaceweb.org/question/planes/f22/f22-natf.jpg

Design

Designed to be an advanced front line fighter, the F-42 is meant to be first in and first out of a battlefield. Air Superiority is something to have in the modern days of war, and means a lot to a battle. If the skies are clear, aerial transports can arrive and bring supplies and fighter bombers can roam the air without the risk of being shot down.

Gaining air superiority is hard, and often involves having the largest number of aircraft in the area. But it has been proved in the latest years that numbers are not the msot important thing. Stealth and superior aircraft are often as important as numbers, and a number of half decent aircraft with a good arsenal can rule the skies.

Bearing this in mind, we designed this fighter to be maneuverable, fast and sleek. This is significant, meaning an airfield does not have to be near for aircraft to be over the combat zone.

Swing wings have also been involved for added speed, so airflow and wing hinderance are not involved at high speeds. 2D thrust vectoring has been used, meaning added low speed maneuverability. We think this combo is ruling in fighter capability.

The swing wings hinder stealth slightly, but the smooth curves and shape mean it still has the stealth as say, a F-35 JSF. We are proud of the design, and may use it again int he future, like the russians with the Su-27.

Systems

The systems have had a major make over. We have totally replaced most of the systems, and now we have the most developed and new systems for you. One of which is JTIDS, Joint Tactical Information Distribution System. This allows enemy unit information to be passed freely to other aircraft, ground units and ships, and the aircraft to let its weapons be guided by other units.

The latest Kazakh-70 system allows the sufficient Data from JTIDS to travel to the Fire Control and Weapons Systems. Kkazah-70 is basically a tied in weapons system, and means linear weapons control and firing. The target is passed via JTIDS to the computer, and can be shot down in the blink of an eye.

The latest autpilot auto landing system has been installed, and the autopilot is enemy aware this time. It will steer round radar detection areas, avoid fighters and AAA and swoop in for kills. The pilot merely has to tell it what to do, though sometimes it may be better to fly it yourself. This system is new and very well received.

Weaponary

Of course, first sight doesnt mean first shot, not without superior weapons. To keep with its stealth design, a bomb bay is used as a pose to the more traditional pilons. The wide main body is almost a flying wing, whereas the wings are swing wings. This means mounting pilons on them would be complex, and add to the confusion of an already complex plane. So, a large bomb bay was added. Last we saw, it could load a 2,000 pound bomb (though it isnt supposed to), and AIM-54's arent a problem.

There are 5 slots, and 2 AIM-120's can be loaded on each slot, or 1 AIM-54 on each. This means 10 possible AIM-120's. Fairly large for a stealth fighter. Of course, most weapons can be catered for by the bay and computers. And once more, a Ghs-30-1 cannon is loaded. Note: All eastern block variants are catered for!

Thats time again. Stats :(

Propulsion: 2 KZ-105TV engines, total 95,000 lbs possible thrust.
Height: 17 feet
Wingspan: 75 feet unswept, 51 feet swept
Ceiling: Above 53,000 feet
Speed Max Mach Number = 2.76
Cruise Mach Number = 1.42
Approach Speed = 150 kts
Crew Two: Pilot and Radar Intercept Officer
Payload: Up to 18,000 pounds

Cost: $55,000,000.

Thankyou. Sorry, no more pics this time.

Here, some reviews:

looks like what would happen if an F-14 and an F/A-22 got jiggy with it :D[/quote

[quote]Better than the F-22 by miles!

Unfortunately thats all my aircraft pics used up :(

Have to find new ones, if I can.

OOC: I think i had a model of one of those a few years ago.

They dont exist.

Only the one concept exists.

Well it looked remarkebly like it.

I buy 20 aircraft for asking price

You bunch of losers! Especially the one who typed all this crap! What a complete waste of time. Get a life!

I feel like a mod alert? Why are you so angry and flaming everyone?

I'm a farely new nation and only have about 500,000,000 to spend so I'll take 5 at asking price.

5x55,000,000-275,000,000

Ah.

Are you sure you want to spend all your budget on these?

Anyway, here is your budget I find:

I am constantly updating my nations air force. This looks like an excellent, advanced, technologically unparalelled plane. My country will order 12. The money will be wired upon confirmation.

That it is.

Better than the F-22, F-35 and most of the russian jobs.

THE best electronically though.

My nation will purchase 24.

I dont like storefronts, and I cant be bothered yping it all out at once. Also, more people pay attention to single things sold. Like United Elias, for example.

Shiny :D

Where can I make mine?

Shiny :D

Where can I make mine?microsoft front page... and photoshop

Ill stick to freewebs for now :)

NO NO NO!!!! NOTEPAD!! :D Or some other plain text editor, like Crimson Editor which is only better than Notepad because you can open multiple tabs and it highlights the current line....down ye frontpage and dreamweaver and freewebs!!

Oh, photoshop, yes :D

By the way, I don't really like freewebs...supposedly you get 100MB for free, but then you're only allowed 50 files.

As far as I am concerned, notepad is something you write on.

Now, out, OUT.

I'll take 2
110 million

Sounds good - if a bit sci-fi. Your weapon load worries me though as they are out of date. AIM-54C? Last decade's weapon. Same goes for the AIM-120C. If your plane is better than the F-22, surely it could be fitted with better weaponary - Meteor BVRAAM is the world leader by far, and the ASRAAM would be a good complement for the shorter range.
By the way, stealth is no big deal - Royal Navy Type 42 destroyers picked up most of the B-2s and F-117 in the FIRST Gulf War and their radar is creaking.
Interested, if the specs can be pushed up.

Ahem.

IT CAN CARRY EVERY WEAPON UNDER THE SPECIFIED SIZE ON THE PLANET. MULTIPURPOSE MOUNT.

(OOC: Nice come back)
Fair enough

Bump.

And was this the plane you were comparing to in those other storefronts?

The F-xxx super uber-bomber?

B-2s and F-117s have much larger radar signatures than the F-22 and JSF. Supercruise also helps.

IC:

The ROTAF would like to purchase 12 for comabt testing. $660m has been wired to the appropriate accounts.

Order Confirmed.

We are sure it shall pass all tests with flying colours.

The F-22 is quite stealthy, whereas the JSF is somewhat less stealthy.

And this thing doesn't need to be stealth, it is better than a hell of a lot of aircraft without being stealth.

The 7th fleet would like 10 F-42 Air Superiority Fighter
thats 550 Million USD

Will I now ignore the TG?

Her Majesty Queen Dorathy 8ths Government of CANZUK would like to purchase 45 F-42 ASF at a cost of $55,000,000 each, therefore equalling a total sum of $2,475,000,000

We are glad yo like our fighter. Order Confirmed.

Naksulandia would like to buy 8 fighters with 400,000,000 $ if possible?

We're a small nation ,but we'd like to order 5. Thats $275,000,000.00.
Can you delay delivery till next Friday.?Our one run way is not completed quite yet.

Oh sorry.

Oh sorry.

Thank you very much. :)

Well...I presume this is air superiority then...I'll take 100. $5.5 billion wired.

It is.

It lacks a lot of ground attack, though it still can drop LGB's and fire Mavericks and the like. Just lacks a good ground radar.

It has a huge air to air radar, and is primarily built for A-A. If you want ground attack or Multirole, go for the F/A-41 which we talked about, or A-15.

Order Confirmed, enjoy your fighters. They are pretty much the best at the mo.

We'll take 144 of these excellent fighters for 7,920,000,000.

The Kalmykh Air Force would like to purchase 10 F-42 ASF to equip one of its aggressor school squadrons. $550 million dollars will be wired on confirmation.

Another 100...must find some way to expend budget. $5.5 billion.

The Dominion, in the interest of updating our air force, wishes to purchase 250 F-42s, with the possiblity of more at some other time. The money has been wired.

OOC- Holy sh*t, I just checked my GDP. Look at this!--->

National Budget: $18,234,886,800,000

Percentage of GDP Spent on Defense: 7.69%
Percentage of Budget Spent on Defense: 25%
Military Budget: $4,558,721,700,000

:lol: Yeeha.

144 of these, Carrier version.

7,920,000,000 has been wired... And just wondering, are production rights available? If the price is affordable, we may consider buying rights.

200 for 11 billion please.

~Money wired upon confirmation~

We require a further 800 units. $40 billion will be wired.

the government of Umnali would like to purchase

50 F-42 (Regular Version) - 2.75 Billion

to anyone, a great purchase, much cheaper then the F-22 and better

ive have now abandoned my plans to make the F-22 the mainstay of my airforce and replaced with the F-42 and F-16

Order Confiremd.

F-42's are good, but F-16's? F/A-41 is better :lol:

tag

Dont tag! Buy :D

Hey, is this naval compatible? Just checking...

i will take 200
money shall arrive on delivery

It's too big to be naval capable. We were going to make them capable, but Sharkishki killed the program.

Order Confirmed.

*Breaking News*

The last F-42 for the Kazakhstanian Air Force has just rolled off the production lines. The F-42 is now an export only product, and all exports shall be of KAF standards!

OOC:

This basically means upgrade.
