FB-12

History
Penguisiana's aerospace industry was now on a roll. A new upstart corporation, Fairy Blue, was now beginning production on some of the most innovative Penguisiana aircraft yet, while the government completely forgot and disregarded previous companies. This corporation was committed to design efficient planes - such as their first and newest product, the FB-12 (which is not a fighter bomber). The FB-12 is also Penguisiana's newest aircraft. With this new flight unit penguisiana continues to pour in hundreds of billion each year and deploy many new branches, such will be listed

Emperor- Heavy fighter / Conventional aircraft

Macaroni- Low-Observation stealth bombers

Rock hopper- Reconaissance

SA- Missile branch



new weapons

a new protoype weapon is being tested by this new plane.

SA-3 : this is the first missile designed by the SA branch. Not origional thouhg, the SA-3 is just a combination of the ARAAM technoligy and the R-77 explosive power. details are released maybe upon consumer request

AIM-132:The Advanced Short Range Air-to-Air Missile (ASRAAM) is a state of the art, highly manoeuvrable and combat effective weapon.

2000lbs in JDAM

twin 15mm vulcan cannon- loaded for 1200 rounds the cannons are placed on each side of the plane.

20 mm vulcans are used for the marine designs because the launch speed should be able to blow up airplanes on carriers

Avonics
High frequency radar waves are emmitted form the FB-12 to help locate and distort the enemies aircraft. A jammar could be the high frequency wave used to confuse enemy aircraft. Counter measures included flares, after burners, and the FB-12 is able to shut down and freefall till 2,000 feet above ground and able to recover it's lost speed. FB-12 has a radar itself and GPSs feed images of targets o the FB-12. structured to bounce of radar waves, stealth is a key factor to survival chance

Engine
1 turbo fan engine with after burners. after burners are made out of hydrogen liquids because it is more efficient and produces more effect after penguisiana reasearch.
