Congratulations on a great aircraft. While we do not have a need for our stealth aircraft (OOC-F-115 Machete... Yours looks a lot cooler though... Damn the limits of DoGA.), we may in the future acquire some in the future as part of our "Joint Stealth Multirole Fighter" Program.

Actually, the US Air Force has been experimenting with electrochromic panels for visual stealth for some time now. Another possibility involves the use of fiber optic cables imbedded in the skin for a similar effect.

Yeah its true, he is not making it up. :P

of course I'm not making it up! I'm merely using one of MANY possible ideas for an optical cloak.

Keep in mind, all my tech is in the 2010-2020 level.

Now someone buy something ;)

Mach 3.4? A little slow, aren't we? And isn't that some screwed up picture of the YF-23A "Gray Ghost"? I don't mean to bash, but for all that stealth crap to fit on one plane it would have the capicity for about 2 bombs. I understand that you want this plane to be stealthy, but if it carries virtually no ordinance (2 bomblet dispencers or "reloaders"? And 12 QAAMs? Thats alot of missle for a dogfighter, let alone a stealth plane), wheres the point in flying it?

Don't forget to tune in next week to see Raysia's next ill-fated attempt to make an extra buck.

And as for the YF-23 thing, yeah, check the original thread;

All I did was adjust the overall length and wingshape.

We will build a stealth bomber soon, but just not with this model.

Oh, and Mach 3.4 is too slow? Umm... I am only at 2019 tech level...

We beleive we can use 112 RF-23 Nephites for our inital order, and lets say 2 more for spare parts.

Looks like that will run us:
$13,680,000,000
*payment set on standby, to be auto-wired upon confirmation*
