The Advanced Strike Fighter (ASF) is a multi-role stealthy strike fighter optimized for the air-to-ground role, designed to affordably meet the needs of the Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps, with improved survivability, precision engagement capability, the mobility necessary for future joint operations and the reduced life cycle costs.

A notable design feature of this aircraft is the enhanced survivability. The cockpit is armor protected and pushrods are used in preference to cables for the flying control surfaces. The load bearing members are strengthened. The engines are widely separated and a 10 mm thick firewall is installed between them. The explosive resistant fuel tanks are filled with reticulated foam.

The aircraft has an all-welded 30 mm titanium alloy cockpit with transparent windscreen armor block to protect the pilot and is equipped with a single K-36L Zvezda ejection seat.

Cooling air is introduced at the end of the tailcone to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gasses and minimize the infrared signature of the aircraft.

The aircraft has a carrier-suitable tailhook. Its landing gear has a longer stroke and higher load capacity.


Other Special Features:

Survivability: radio frequency/infrared signature reduction and on-board countermeasures to survive in the future battlefield.

Lethality: integration of on- and off-board sensors to enhance delivery of current and future precision weapons

Supportability: reduced logistics footprint and increased sortie generation rate to provide more combat power earlier in theater

Affordability: focus on reducing cost of developing, procuring and owning ASF to provide adequate force structure

Heads Up Display

Hands-On Throttle and Stick (HOTAS)

Internal-Weapon Bays

Super-Cruise ability

"FireFly"Advanced Towed Decoys: These are mounted in two dispensers in the fighter's tail with two decoys in the dispenser on either wing. These drones are dragged about 328 feet (100 meters) behind the aircraft on a thin cable. Each is a specially designed radar lure that creates a radar image to mimic the aircraft. The decoy has a special jammer that is designed to decoy missiles that have been programmed to home on jamming signals. If decoys are not destroyed, they can be recovered and repaired.

ASF’s integrated avionics and stealth are intended to allow it to penetrate surface-to-air missile defenses to destroy targets, when enabled by air dominance. The ASF is designed to complement a force structure that includes other stealthy and non-stealthy fighters, bombers, and reconnaissance / surveillance assets.


The cockpit interior lighting is fully Night Vision Goggle (NVG) compatible, as is the exterior lighting. The cockpit panels feature extended life, self-balancing, electro luminescent (EL) edge-lit panels with an integral life-limiting circuit that runs the lights at the correct power setting throughout their life. It starts at one-half power and gradually increases the power output to insure consistent panel light intensity over time. As a result, the cockpit always presents a well-balanced lighting system to the pilot (there is not a mottled look in the cockpit). The panels produce low amounts of heat and power and are very reliable.

The aircraft also has integral position and anti-collision lights (including strobes) on the wings. The low voltage electro luminescent formation lights are located at critical positions for night flight operations on the aircraft (on the forward fuselage (both sides) under the chine, on the tip of the upper left and right wings, and on the outside of both vertical stabilizers. There are similar air refueling lights on the butterfly doors that cover the air refueling receptacle.

This aircraft packs state of the art sensors and communications equipment. Among it's many features is an enhanced radar system that can track up to 128 targets simultaneously out to a range of 250 miles (400 km). Any targets acquired by the radar are fed into the vehicle's targeting computers
the aircraft can fire missiles at up to 15 targets at the same time. It is also capable of Terrain Following for low altitude flight.


Stealth:
Radar Absorbing Material is covering the entire fuselage of the za-41. This material is made to absorb and kill radio waves instead of reflect
them.
the over-all shape of the aircraft has angles to it that scrambles the radar all over, everywhere but back to the radar's origin.
it also has special horizontal stabilizers located on the aft part of the aircraft. These stabilizers help evenly distribute the lift of the aircraft so that moisture Contrails are avoidable.


Specifications:
2 SKF-40E Pulse Detonation Engines with robust rotary valves [they use a two-stage ignition process to achieve detonation.]
detonation is a violent explosion and as such it produces vastly higher pressures than the simple burning process of deflagration.

Maximum Speed: Mach 4
Supercruise speed: mach 3-3.2
ceiling: 110,000 ft
G-load: 9
range with external fuel tanks: 4,600 kilometres
Gun : one GSh-301
Ammunition 600 rounds
Firing rate 1,500 rounds per minute
Max Payload, 25,640 lb
Air-to-Air Missiles: up to 13
and large variety of Air-to-Surface Missiles including anti-ship
Bombs:laser-guided bombs and other advanced bombs.
Other: rocket pods, ECM pods

i have flanker 2.5

http://www.jasonrost.com/CGTalk/rusty.jpg
The only aircraft in my entire airforce. We call it "The Rusty Bucket."

Don't exactly know what it is, we just found it someday. Don't think it ever left the ground in fact.

ROFL.

OOC: Nanosoft, your plane is an F-15 Eagle. Note the antenae on the top of the vertical fins, US decal on the wing, AMRAAMs under the body, boxy body with nothing between the engines and only 2 underwing pylons. All distinctive marks of the F-15.

:idea: F-27 Haste Fighter
http://www.hpphoto.com/servlet/LinkPhoto?GUID=65d65fb0-2e72-47c1-3463-72eb4c042735&size=
The F-27 Haste is an air-superiority fighter designed to counter/ replace
the F/A-22 Raptor. It features a higher weapons capacity and top speed,
although the IR signature is higher than the F-22, it is just as stealthy on
radar. Foward swept outer wings, all-moving tailplanes and foward
canards provide extreme control an maneverability. Also the thrust
nozzles feature vectoring panels with ful up-down vector angles and
partial left-right vector angle. The F-27 is also capable of super-cruise
(mach 1.5 w/o engaging afterburners).
Specifications
Crew: 1
Length: 60.4 feet
Wing Span: 50 feet.
Power Plant: (2) Afterburing PD 120-PD-100 turbofan engines that develop 36,000 lbs of thrust
Takeoff weight: 64,000 pounds
Service Celing: 60,000 feet,
Maximum Speed: Mach 2.68 (empty) Mach 2.5 (loaded)
Weapons
(1) 20mm M61 Vulcan Gun w/ 400 rounds of TPM ammo
(2) AIM-9X Sidewinder or (2)AIM-132 ASRAAM in fuselage ports
[8] AIM-120 AMRAAMs in wing ports
(6) AIM-120 AMRAAMs (4) AIM-54 Phoenix (4) 1,000lb JDAMs or (2) GBU-LGB 2,000lb bombs in weapons bay
>
(2) AIM-9X Sidewinder or (2)AIM-132 ASRAAM on wingtips
(2)AIM-9X Sidewinder or (2)AIM-132 ASRAAM or (2) AGM-65 Maverick on outer wing racks (putting weapons here decreases stealth)

Isnt the f-27 a little wide to fly at mach?

Isnt the f-27 a little wide to fly at mach?

Not really. Tu-22's, Tu-160's and a variety of other bombers manage it.

DAMkI Musca in RAF colours- blame the artist.

The Bartle Dextrous Aircraft Mark I Musca, manufactured by Bartle Aviation and assorted wartime subcontractors such as the more famous famous Stockley Motors, is one of the finest aircraft flying for the RWAF. The Musca has flown against the Luftwaffe over Atlantic shipping lanes -its long range proving invaluable- and against the Regia Aeronautica over Libya, where the aircraft's great speed has enabled rapid reaction, and the total out-classing of Italian fighters.

The DAMkI's basic specifications are as such:
Crew:2
Length:38'11"
Span:52'10"
Power Plant:Two Stockley 1,900hp liquid cooled engines
Top Speed:436mph
Range:1,390miles
Ceiling:33,900ft
Armament:Four .55" machineguns and four .303" machineguns in nose. Up to 2,900lb of bombs in internal bomb-bays, up to four 54lb rockets or 250lb of bombs under inboard wing section.

The DAMkI*, as yet in only low-rate production, differs in powerplant and associated performance characteristics, being as it is powered by a pair of Calarcan R-4360 3500hp engines. Born of the DAMkI, the MkI* is capable of speeds in excess of 480mph in level flight, and boast a 1,780 mile range thanks to the replacement of its bomb-bay with a large internal fuel tank. The MkI* also exchanges the MkI's eight machineguns for six 20mm cannon.

Great Walmington remains surprised by the on-going lack of export inquries.

It isn't out yet in the UK :x

Downloaded the demo though, it rules.

F/A-110 Starfire
http://www.cameronssketchbook.com/images/games/screens/robotech/robotech1.jpg

Stats of the Starfire:

Manufacture & Orgin: Daggothian Aero Techs (D.A.T), Modified designs of the F/A-108 Warhammer Multi-role Fighter
Role: Multi-role fighter
Wigs span: 37 ft
Weight: 44,043 IB empty / 70,112 Ib max.
Height: 13 ft
Length: 50 ft

Powerplant: Duel D.A.T RF676 after burning turbo-fans (30,000 Ib thrust each)

Speeds: Mach 2.7 (max) Mach 1 (cruise)

Ranges: 1,800 miles

Service Ceiling: 120,000 ft

Arnaments: 4 AA missile pods, Vulcan cannon under nose,

Specials: Very maneuverable. Oxygen systems keep you breathing for up to 48 hours with recycled air. A specialized helmet aids many things concerning weapons systems, navagation, etc, even having word-triggered controls too...

Weaknesses: Speed is not the best thing for the F/A 110. Tho designed for manuverability, it cannot handle high speeds.
Abuse-it can sustain only moterate damage before being out of the sky.

Daggoth, I'm very glad to see my aircraft are still mentioned around here, but what exactly DO to my F/A-108? And if there are any systems and technologies from the F/A-108 on that fighter, are you selling them?

Daggoth, I'm very glad to see my aircraft are still mentioned around here, but what exactly DO to my F/A-108? And if there are any systems and technologies from the F/A-108 on that fighter, are you selling them?

I'm not selling them. I remember when i was a noob, i bought the F/A 108 from someone (was that someone you?)

Anyways, they are not up for sale.

Jeruselem Air force F16E/F over Egypt ... guess the what the landmarks are

http://www.aladdinsoft.com/im/aero/FightF16_009tn.JPG

I invented the F/A-108, and sold it, (Except for that little nazi bastard who started trying to sell it, until I dropped bunker busters on his factories.), so if you didn't get it from me, I'm gonna be real pissed.

But I like to keep a record of what happens to technologies from my aircraft (To prevent resale), so how is this based on the F/A-108?

As i said, when i was a noob, i purchased them. I'll try to dig up the thread...

[edit] can't get it. Thread is deleted :/

It's based on it by that the airframe was changed alot, but it still held the F/A-108 base design. Turbo-fans have been replaced with Daggothian-made ones (but hold approximatly the same thrust power as your turbo-fans) and other Daggothian additions have been added.

What i did NOT put on the F/A-110's are the Athena systems (which help give you a low-radar detection.) The Athena systems ARE yours and i didn't add them w/out ur permission.

OOC: Nano soft, you play Lock-On Modern Air Combat? Me too :)
OOC:No my friend does. I would but my computer is way way to slow.

IC:ERRRR NO! NO!NO!NO!NO! ONE AIRCRAFT per country! All of you who posted more than one aircraft you are disqulified! AND THIS IS NOT A STORE! I dont care WHAT THE SPECS ARE! I CARE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE! And i give the F-27 A ONE! It looks like some airplane a kid chewed up AND SPIT OUT! ITS THE MOST HORRIBLE THING I HAVE EVER SEEN! YOU should feel ashamed of yourself!

Crew: 1, 2 in B model

Notes:
The Pas 41 is a super manuverable, purpose built, low observability V/STOL strike and fighter aircraft designed for use from light carriers in support of marine landings or to provide air support for battleships.

The design was influenced by the F-35B JSF, YF-23 Black Widow, Yak-141 and Rafale. The aircraft has a smaller radar signature then the JSF, mainly due to it's flatter design.

This design, designated FV-27 Manta Ray in Haaregradian service operates from Fortress class battleships and from Wasp(modified) class amphibious assault carriers.

Ok, it's not an 'arty' picture, but it shows the design off well enough.

GFF-1 Wraith
This is the newest addition to the GFAF. It is essentially a retrofitted F-16.It beat the F-16 in every category and most other fighters too. It has a totally new custom engine, a new fire control system that is twice as efficient as the old US model, and a new target tracking system, which can track 20 targets simultaneously. We hope that this will give us an edge on all other fighters in its class.

well nothing much

so... who won :?:

Well i have thought about it and the winner of this air show will be me! Not! But the winner is *drum roll* Geforce4! You had good scenery and good graphics for the aircraft! I liked it and it was almost everything i was looking for! I gave it a score of 9.6. You would have more if you didn't post the specs or how much it was. Also the nose of the aircraft was like just a point, not rounded but just a point so that was one small thing. Now you get the insurance and the money and whatever i listed!

What about the too low polygon count on the nose of geforce4's aircraft?

Shouldn't win. And what about the BS stats?

Ahh, I tried to weld mine, mine broke...

You didnt say that!

There are no rules on the first page, how was I to know!

Anyway, sorted it.

Ahhh, this damn contest was fixed. All those DQs without there ever being a rule in the original post about multiple pictures......

What about the too low polygon count on the nose of geforce4's aircraft?

Shouldn't win. And what about the BS stats?
I dont care about about the Stats that is why i took points off for posting them! Do you not get it? This is a air show not a stats show! I dont care about the stats i care about how the picture was taken and what the air craft looks like! Now do not quetion the judge! He wins and that is final!

Plus he was one of the few who Almost followed directions. But many did not...

Ethier why I WILL NEVER DO THIS AGIAN! I think it was a waste of money and time! This was a terrible idea...

PS who ever had the F-21 or what ever looked like it was chewed by a kid tire redrawing it so it does not look like a kid eat it and spti it out. No offence or anything but it does look that way.

What about mine, what was the score for mine?

Lets see you draw an orignal aircraft by hand, scan and color with a pos image editing program then tpye up a page of bull shit stats.

But Nano Soft....can i get my rating??

Same here...my rating.....

My dear friends, let me introduce you to the last things most pilots will ever see when they come up against my airforce in combat. Let me present to you, the FJ-27C Highlander III air superiority fighter. Incredibly manueverable, with trade mark computer targeting and TAM launcher. Stats to come soon...

Dang! Why didn't you post this sooner? You would of won! Out of all of them i would of gave you a 10.0!

No none of you can have ratings! Im sorry but because of you filling up the first page with tons pictures i can not load it other wise it will take like an hour because i have gay dail up.



The Phoenix Milita i will take you up on your challenge! I will start drawing it tomorrow morning in my A-Block in school! Which happens to be cartooning!(Boreing!) I will draw a better air craft, scan it and post it on a web page and PUT IT IN YOUR FACE! J/k But i will show you and others whene i am done. But i will do the coloring my self because my internet is on a Mac and i cant find a simple coloring/drawing system.
