Specifications:
Tech Level: 2006+
Frame: Heavily altered Su-37
Role: Heavy Dogfighter/Attacker
Short Take-Off/Landing (STOL) Capable
Carrier: Capable
Crew: 1 or 2
Wing Span: 20m
Length: 22m
Height: 6.9m
Weight: 45,145 lbm empty / 79,556 lbm max take off
Powerplant: [code:1:df91a1402b]2 Vectored-Thrust REPH-1100 Pulse-Det Hybrids
Max Normal thrust: 25,000 lbf
Max plus afterburner: 30,000 lbf
Pulse Detonation: adds 7,500 lbf
Aux Power: One Raysian Aero Mk II Aux. Pulse-Det "Blaster" pod, outputting an additional 19,000 lbs of force (for STO and quick accelleration)[/code:1:df91a1402b]
Performance:
Maximum speed (with only QAAMs onboard, full fuel, and all engines and boosters at full, and flying at 30,000 feet): Mach 3.12
Maximum speed (dry): Mach 1.05 supercruise, mach 1.9 afterburn, Mach 2.5 with post-combustion detonation (pulse engines) over the Jets.
g limits: +13, -9 (So be careful!) Automatic Safeties prevent the plane from pulling unsafe g-forces and harming the pilot.
Airframe can stand up to 15gs
Range: Normal load with internal fuel tanks: 900km
Service Ceiling: 52,000 ft
Armament: 1 Gsh-30-1 30mm cannon, and 35,000lbs of payload over 19 Hardpoints. Fuselage hardpoints made to work especially with the Raysian Arms EGP-18 100mm Vulcan (300 ammo, 10,000 lbs 4 hardpoints, 20 Million USD additional), as well as the popular QAAM-28 missile.

Unique Features: 3D thrust vectoring, "Blaster" pod for STO ability, and all are Carrier capable. Radar signature easily confused for a Mig-29, and has SuperManeuverability comparable to the Su-37 or F-22. Has built in reconnaissance equipment such as a digital Camera. Missiles can fire any direction.

The forward-down swept wings allow it to maneuver sharply and also allow it to land at slow speeds, as well as fly at low altitudes or land on smooth beach using a wing-in-ground effect.

Computers: Advanced Autopilot to automatically land the plane on a carrier or runway in case the pilot gets knocked out or any other emergency like that, may be engaged by C&C or a wingman. The HUD is used in tandem with the "VisorScreens," which is a display projected onto the Visor of the Pilot's helmet, and uses a sort of compass in tandem with the computer that can allow him to see highlighted targets in any direction, even what used to be a blind spot beneath him or behind him. The 'VisorScreen' does not display the Altitude, pitch, and Speed like the HUD, as most pilots found this very confusing. The VisorScreen can be used to fire missiles in any direction.

Another cool new feature of this plane is its ability to interact with and control up to 2 UCAV wingmen from the Navigator's seat... something that can come in handy in situations where jamming is heavy and the UCAVs can't be controlled by long distance.

Price: 43,000,000

Nice

After the advisor to the defense minister stopped drooling, he has contacted Raysia expressing interest in the aircraft. Yet another great product by Raysia...we have only one question - what are the aerodynamical drawbacks to the oddly- shaped vertical stabilizers?

OOC _ How do you make those images? (What program)

Yet another great product by Raysia...we have only one question - what are the aerodynamical drawbacks to the oddly- shaped vertical stabilizers?Aerodynamic drawbacks: The c-shaped tails increase lateral stability, and allow for cleaner rolls, but decrease yaw (left-right) speed. However, the thrust-vectoring overrides the tail-yaw ability anyway, so it is not noticible. There are more ups than downs.

Plus, it makes it look freakin cool :P

OOC _ How do you make those images? (What program)Lightwave 6.5... expensive program, got it from my pro brother

The original Su-37 model was from some free-models website

ooooooooooooooooook..

Doujin would like to order 10,000 of your RF-37-2800 "Q-Type" for 430,000,000 billion dollars.. and if I could convince you.. production rights for 4.57 trillion dollars and I will not sell them individually. (That's 5 trillion, I don't sell individually but I can include them in my naval packages [which no one really buys anyway ] you know you want to :p)

(That's 5 trillion, I don't sell individually but I can include them in my naval packages [which no one really buys anyway :cry: ] you know you want to :p)Umm... I'm assuming you're doujin.

Anyway... three problems... one... I don't think I could possibly turn out 10,000 of them in anything less than like 30 years... two... you couldn't possibly have a use for 10,000 fighters in a whole army! let alone just of one type of aircraft! and three... where the eff do you pull 5 trillion from?!!

Besides, I don't sell production rights... unless of course you REALLY want that 10k and godmode your way into producing all of them...

I contract out facilities to construct aircraft, so yes please..

I contract out facilities to construct aircraft, so yes please..I should probably question this more... but you are giving me 5 trillion dollars... *sigh* whatever, if the money is good, you can have the non-sale production rights.

Thanks for the business

The Holy Emperor has ordered the purchase of four "Q-types" at a cost of 174,000,000 so the Imperial Air Force can test them. We'll send the money upon confirmation.

Our highly capable XSF-02 Star Sabre, designed after the North American Sabre, is the only class of Space/Air Fighter we have. Thus we are both working on new designs and looking around for more. We are interested in this design, and may come back later for requests.

Thank You.

OOC: Is this based on the X-302(From Stargate SG-1) by any chance? Also is there a version available without pulse detonating engines?

This is not a space ship, this is strictly air.

As for the SG-1 comment... I did kinda shape it to look death-glider-ish, with the forward/down wings ^_^ I just like the shape, plus it has benefits... not like the gliders even follow basic laws of physics :P

Without pulse-det engines? Uhh... not really... it's too integral. I could make a version without the blasters or the pulse-det hybrids... but what you'd have then is nothing more than an overweight underpowered Su-37 ^_^

OOC: Ah shucks, oh well. I'll just continue drooling over it then.

OOC: I previously purchased 536 SU-37-1800 Raysian Specials and 2000 V-44 War Movers.

OOC: Didn't you leave the IC world, Raysia?

Raysia, as we see you as Neutral, meaning you have done nothing wrong in the eyes of The People, we ask this question which could be quite sensitive:

Comrade Brethren Raysia,

As many know, if not all, by now, our beloved Nation of Ancient Rudavia has been destroyed and thus, being saved by an Alien Race at the freakin' last moment, was allowed to choose a new home system and Homeworld.

After a long silence we began diplomatic relations when we felt our new Colony of Novar, our new Homeworld, was well established. We asked Allies if we could build Colonial Outposts, meaning outposts in which we could both protect them and allow us the capability to have assests back on earth.

Thus we ask you if we could build a Colonial Outpost, with an Embassay as all come with just in case you seek to either obliterate the Outpost for fun or an alliance could be called forth, far from any Civilization in your Nation. We only ask for a good amount of space, and we, as Comrade Brethren, promise to stay out of your way and NEVER interefer with ANYTHING.

We only request this because we need a few more Colonial Outposts to be able to protect and ensure our Allies and Neutral Friends are left safe.

Thank You,
Kata'Re
Leader of the Colony of Nodea Rudav

OOC: Didn't you leave the IC world, Raysia?I'm on spring break.. and I have an easy term coming up.

Server permitting, I'll at least be on as Raysia

OOC:

2040-45 is Pro-Modern Space.....but we ask the building of the Outpost so that we do not Godmod accidently of Over-Amounts of units or whatnot. I shall not disturb your nation, or anything within, if you allow this.

Perhaps it would be best if we say no, or do you say yes? Either way, I shall obide as a Fellow Role Player. :D

We could allow you to build in some off-shore territory, or possibly in one of our border buffer zones... though if you build in any of those.. they won't exactly be the safest place if Raysia is ever attacked. There is a certain buffer of territory seperating Raysia from its borders.

If you mean using the space in orbit, or if you wish to build a floating (air) city of some sort, then that would be something to look forward to ^_^

We tend to stay Pro-Modern, as we are advancing slowly yet productively. We....er....PERHAPS could construct a Flying Outpost, but we would have to develop Anti-Gravity technology, which we know little of. However, we do ask to use some Off-Shore territory, such as the water, in which case we could construct a Platform big and strong enough to support our needs of Protecting you, allowing Raysia to inspect, and doing our own duties.

We tend to believe a Platform at Sea would be best, in your waters of course, in which case we would devote that Outpost to your nation for protection and whatnot and build an Embassay just in case talks of alliance show up.

Your decision. :)

Well, at current security level, Raysia is in a very Free-Trade state, and planes and zeppelins commonly go to and fro with very little customs inspection.

You may begin your construction when you wish.

But just be warned, in case I go to war with someone... ya don't wanna get caught up in the midst of our defense systems.

(I am advancing my tech a LITTLE bit)

Thank you, Construction shall begin immedietly and take......One RL Day or lower. :D

Oh yeah that's cool I have to say. But I still like your RF-11 Archangel better but my you got one helluva good imagination man <S> to that!

Oh yeah that's cool I have to say. But I still like your RF-11 Archangel better but my you got one helluva good imagination man <S> to that!Yeah, but I didn't make any of the RF-11 pics :P all I did was photoshop them :P I agree though, the RF-11D is still by far my bestest plane

RG the D is cool but I like the standard RF11 more. And your use of pulse detonation is by far awesome.

Oh I bet it does LOL! Is this alike to that which is rumored to be on the "Aurora"?

Oh I bet it does LOL! Is this alike to that which is rumored to be on the "Aurora"?the what?

The pulse-detonation. Is it the same propulsion rumored to be on the "Aurora," which if you don't know is this top secret US spy plane capable of M6 or something in very high altitude as a recon vehicle.

Whether it exists or not in RL, who knows.

The technology is all over pop sci though

OOC: Welcome back! So you'll stop spamming general? :lol:

Pop sci is fabulous stuff. I loved the FB-22 article they had. Now with regards to pulse detonation, yes it is rumored to be a type of propulsion on the Auora, allowing it to achieve speeds in excess of M6. It's definitely years ahead of the current time I'd have to say.

Rgrt well I imagine the systems on the Aurora would be MASSIVE as the plane would be massive. No I definitely think you have harnassed it well and use it well. I have to applaud your aerospace man! If only I was that type of tech level.

I will take 200 of these planes. Money wired upon confirmation.

The Federation Defense Ministry's Directorate of Research is curious as to how the 100mm Vulcan can be effectively utilized without massive damage to the airframe, after all, such a weapon would fire a round roughly equivalent in size to that used in the main gun of the Soviet T-55 or German Panther Mark I tanks. How are you able to safely mount it without adding massive weight to the airframe due to necessary reinforcements?

However, it takes up basically all of the fuselage hardpoints.

Are these planes for sale? If so I would like 500 of these planes. If not for sale just ignore this order.

*money wired apon confirmation*
