Kazakhstania has many aircraft. Now, we have put it all into the one storefront!!
Kazakhstania is hoping to complete a total fighter arsenal, to sell to the world and give to its own forces. We have seen that many of you have tried, tested and even used our fighter planes, cargo planes and tanks. They have received popular response from all, and gained praise from some of the worlds older nations. Now, I hope the same privileges and response will be given to this fighter.
F-42 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 most important things. 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 manoeuvrable, fast and sleek. Carrier capability has also been arranged, so the fighter is capable (in the CV version) of taking off and landing on a carrier. 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 hindrance are not involved at high speeds. 2D thrust vectoring has been used, meaning added low speed manoeuvrability. 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 into he future, like the Russians with the Su-27.
Systems
The systems on this aircraft are top of the range. The computers are liquid cooled as standard, and allow for the simultaneous tracking of 200 aircraft, but is not capable of tracking ground vehicles due to the lack of under nose pod. JTDS from the F/A-41 and A-15 is used, to greater effect, as it almost controls all communication between base, other aircraft and any other frequencies.
The supercomputer also runs Fly-By-Optics, which use several computers to decide what to do. Fuel shifting for equal balance, thrust distribution and weapon safe firing are handled from here, with little work needed from the pilot. Engine economy is also controlled, and Air to Air refuelling has been reorganised for autopilot. The autopilot system (as used on the F/A-41 'Snake (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=96418&highlight=)) for carrier landings is used, meaning easy training of pilots.
A supercomputer is used, more powerful than anything loaded into a fighter plane until now (at least more powerful than all RL fighter planes), and allows for complex applications such as Fly by Optics and JTDS. The radar used is a long range (140nm for an F-16), wide sight radar, used for tracking aerial targets. It can relay many targets positions at once to the computer, as many as the computer can handle. This means first sight, first shot.
Weaponry
Of course, first sight doesn’t 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 pylons. The wide main body is almost a flying wing, whereas the wings are swing-wings. This means mounting pylons 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 isn’t supposed to), and AIM-54's aren’t 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, the bay and computers can cater for most weapons. And once more, a Ghs-30-1 cannon is loaded. Note: ALL EASTERN BLOC EQUIVELANTS ARE CATERED FOR.
That’s time again. Stats :(
Propulsion: 2 KZ-101TV engines, total 90,000 lbs possible thrust.

Thankyou. Sorry, no more pics this time.
A-15 'Raiden' Ground Attack Fighter
Design
In initial concept, we designed this Ground Attack Fighter to be quick, manoeuvrable and hold a decent payload. We also wanted it to be semi stealthy, such as the JSF, F-22 and other concept fighters. Survivability and usefulness were also key.
We came up with several ideas, and the initial idea of using 3D thrust vectoring as a pose to 2D came through. This also meant added manoeuvrability, and took away the need for a rudder. The mini winglets at the end of the wing are there to give added flight balance, and keep the airflow going to the right places.
A main concern was the stealthy shape. We decided to use shapes like the JSF and F-22, with curves to bounce of radar. It has worked, but we managed to keep the price of building it down and manoeuvrability to the maximum. We are proud of the design, as it keeps stealth while still allowing 7.5 G's of turn (8.5 non-export) and Mach 2.5 in level flight.
Systems
The systems on this aircraft are top of the range. The computers are liquid cooled as standard, and allow for the simultaneous tracking of 50 aircraft or 300 ground vehicles. They are mini supercomputers, in essence, and allow for advanced unit tracking in a program called JTDS (Joint Tactical Distribution System), which is relayed to the weapons systems. From there it is passed to the pilot and weapons, meaning a lock on is not even needed for the weapon to guide. All fire and forget weapons with universal settings are catered for, and can be fired.
The supercomputer also runs Fly-By-Optics, which use several computers to decide what to do. Fuel shifting for equal balance, thrust distribution and weapon safe firing are handled from here, with little work needed from the pilot. Engine economy is also controlled, and Air to Air refuelling has been reorganised for autopilot. The autopilot system (as used on the F/A-41 'Snake (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=96418&highlight=)) for carrier landings is used, meaning easy training of pilots. Other than that, the computers are all user friendly, and from the next generation from the F/A-41 and A-10. In fact, they re so advanced they are 2 generations ahead of the A-10 and A-6.
There are 2 radars involved, on in the nosecone pointing level and up, the other in a small pod under the cockpit. The nose-mounted radar is an 120 Nautical Mile range air-to-air radar, for aerial engagements. It is cheap and easy to use, to provide at least some air to air use for the aircraft. It is fairly efficient, and can track most targets on its own. Stealth is a noted problem however (not so on the non-export version).
The second, under-nose radar is the goodun though. It can scan terrain, map it, and pick up most objects. Using IR, TV and Optical Scanners, it can pick up foreign objects like Tanks and ground objects. Then, thanks to the supercomputer it can identify them and relay the info to the pilot. Very slick.
Weaponry
A large and spacious bomb bay is underneath the main fuselage and engines. It can accommodate most universal weapons systems, bombs and missiles. Possible layouts are 6 Maverick AGM's, 6 AIM-120A's or Four 1,000 pound bombs and 4 Maverick's. This is much like the F-22 Raptors bomb bay, but larger and wider. It can also accommodate 2 2,000 pound bombs and 4 Mavericks.
It is very much geared to air to ground. On the two possible wing pylons, the inner one can take three 500 pound bombs and the outer ones 2 Mavericks AGM's. A variety of weapons can be catered for, mainly Air to Ground Munitions. Cluster bombs and rocket pods on the inner pylons are also available.
The main gun is a very powerful AP 30mm cannon. It is tri barrelled, and rotates in a space inside the aircraft. The door to the cannon slides back, allowing for stealth to be kept. It is angled straight ahead, for strafing runs, as a pose to up for dogfights.

F/A-41 "Snake"
http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/row/idf-aidc.jpg
Design
Designed to encompass the latest in technology and design, the F/A-41 is a serious piece of hardware. Almost entirely made out of a blend of Titanium and Carbon (Titanium Carbonate) we have crafted a light and manoeuvrable fighter.
It uses the latest in aerodynamics, as it uses airflow and currents to pass over its wings and flaps, producing lift, turn and speed. It is much like the F-16 Fighting Falcon of the west, and is based on it. However, it encompasses double engines, each producing almost 30,000 pounds of thrust when dry. At afterburner, it can reach 50,000 pounds, meaning it can accelerate to a speed of Mach 2.
Systems
The F/A-41 is not only physical in its advantages. It uses some of the latest radar technology. The small yet powerful radar can detect enemies up to 180km away, meaning it often gets the first look. The radar can also be used in a ground-mapping role for reconnaissance or ground attack, in picking out objects on the ground.
Infrared sensors are built in and allow for detection from up to 9 km away. This allows for additional ground attack, or allows use in detecting stealth aircraft such as the B-2, F-22 and a variety of stealth developed fighters. Also, missiles like the AIM-9X Sidewinder can lock on, meaning weapons compatibility.
The trump card however is its electronic suite. Utilising jammers that use several frequencies and modules to jam things, it is fully capable of eliminating detection until it is sorted out. Also, various heat-cooling systems reduce the aircrafts crossection.
Its powerful onboard Joint Tactical Information Distribution System (JTIDS) allows for upwards of 50 air targets and 215 ground targets to be spotted and destroyed. It can deal with most missiles from around the world and uses a universal system. It can also work with other JTIDS systems to spot more enemies in flight.
Weapons
On each wing are 3 weapons pylons. Each can take 200lbs, meaning a huge overall weight possible.. There is also a rail on the end for holding weapons such as the AMRAAM, AA-11 and AIM-9X. Also, there leis another 500lb slot underneath. This means that there is a total of 12,750 lbs of weaponry fitted on the aircraft.
The JTIDS also means most weapons systems can be catered for, even modern weapons like Storm Shadow or Joint Standoff Munitions. It is JDAM capable, and can even cater for one weapon targeting multiple targets (cluster munitions). This means a diverse and unique operating system.
Carrier Version
A carrier version has now been produced, meaning more thrust, more stable and updated computers for carrier landing.
We present to you, the F/A-41 "Snake".

C-145 'Hauler'
http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/row/c-1-japan.jpg
Design
With the competitive world of aerial design providing tough opposition, we set about producing a new transport for all nations to use. Again, due to our small nation and relatively small armed forces, we were forced to export another product.
We have decided to release the C-145 as a light transport, and as a support aircraft. Designed to take off from short airfields, it can also be put on high readiness at all times for a QRF.
It is light and can carry just over 50 paratroopers (52 possible), it can provide transport for a variety of roles. We hope you like this design, and its ability to do what the C-5, C-130 and C-117 cannot do. Also, around built armour means 30mm sots can be soaked up with ease. An onboard refuelling boom is also in place.
Power plant
To be able to land on short runways, before taking off again, it is imperative that a powerful engine must be used. Also, carrying a full load of 12,500 kg in cargo, means power must be achieved fully and effectively.
We have rigged it with 2 KZ-102 engines so it can reach speeds of Mach 0.9, not stall easily and be capable of adequate manoeuvres meant engines that can deal thrust at great amounts. Also, it must lift the airframe with full cargo. 64,700 pounds of thrust can be achieved each.
Slightly smaller KZ-100 engines are installed on the AWACS version, for safer flying at less cost. The engines are also situated slightly further forward on the AWACS, for greater flight balance.
Systems
The aircraft is fitted with fly by wire controls such as that of a fighter, meaning manoeuvrability and fly ability. Autopilot is standard, and allows automatic carrier and short runway landings, as long as the runways are calculated.
Counter measures such as flares, chaff and ECM have been installed for basic survival from missiles, and an automatic load calculator is installed. This makes for easier, safer flying.
AWACS Version
http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/row/ec-1.jpg
On the AWACS version, long-range 500nm calculating radar with onboard supercomputer are issued. We believe that a smaller, less expensive airframe should be used for AWACS, other than larger craft. The supercomputer can calculate up to 200 airborne targets and 300 ground targets at once, and calculate where they are going every 0.001 seconds. It is liquid nitrogen cooled for extra power.
Now, some stats to sell it:
Role: Long Range Light Transport
Wing Span: 100.4 ft
Length: 115.1 ft
Height: 32.8 ft
Engines: 2 KZ-102 engines each - 32,350lbs of thrust each
Maximum speed: Mach 0.9
Range: 1307 miles - maximum unrefueled
520 miles - maximum payload unrefueled
Service Ceiling: 45,000 ft
Capacity: 65 troops or
52 paratroopers or
40 stretchers or
12,500 kg of cargo
Crew: 5

Slightly smaller KZ-100 engines are installed on the AWACS version, for safer flying at less cost. The engines are also situated slightly further forward on the AWACS, for greater flight balance.
Systems
The aircraft is fitted with fly by wire controls such as that of a fighter, meaning manoeuvrability and fly ability. Autopilot is standard, and allows automatic carrier and short runway landings, as long as the runways are calculated.
Counter measures such as flares, chaff and ECM have been installed for basic survival from missiles, and an automatic load calculator is installed. This makes for easier, safer flying.
AWACS Version

On the AWACS version, long-range 500nm calculating radar with onboard supercomputer are issued. We believe that a smaller, less expensive airframe should be used for AWACS, other than larger craft. The supercomputer can calculate up to 200 airborne targets and 300 ground targets at once, and calculate where they are going every 0.001 seconds. It is liquid nitrogen cooled for extra power.
