While the EF-2000 Typhoon Eurofighter is an Effective war machine, we beleive that european countries need an advanced fighter for eaisly attacking Land sea and air targets. it should also be fairly cheap, both in initial procurment costs, and in yearly costs. that it be easy to operate and maintain. the goal of the EF-13 Is to fullfill all these goals for European Nations. six prototypes are to built to test it's effectiveness.

We recommend switching the engine for a 5th generation engine. The TF110 is outdated and underpowered for a next generation fighter.

You need at least 32 000lbs of thrust in a heavy fighter.

thank you for the advice. currently however, the EuroSpace XJ-113 Rapier Turbofan is not yet available. this will delay construction of the aircraft.

OOC: It's worth it, but this is your first day, complex next generation fighter aircraft should wait at least until you have 200 million population and a Strong+ economy.

that's why it is a joint development. this is taking up basically all of our military budget.

This looks a good replacement for my 200+ Eurofighter fleet. Jeruselem Aerospace is willing to support your efforts to produce this fighter with some investment in return for production rights.

Nova, we would like to take 10 for secret purposes(probably evaluation)
we are also willing to produce the engines for you for construction rights, and rights to use the engine(ill probably use it in my planes that ill export)
I can produce the engines due to my powerhouse economy and also being given support from a nation in my region is usseful(if you want to check then TG itaekallis, i cant spell it right, hes in my region)! :D

put some better engines in, improve the airframe and bang, mach 2.5! This plane seems to be slower than the EU-200(or is it just me?)
excellent first fighter!
