Does it work on Carriers? And how much for production rights? Can we change the name? And can we paint it a different color?

OOC: I don't like the JAS-39. Range sucks, no stealth, only one engine.

It's kickass for dogfighting, but who cares about close quarters when a few F-14s armed with Phoenix missiles can blow them all to hell from 200 miles away?

yes it is good in a dog fight which makes it manovourable and could easily out manovour a phoenix because they have a very limited chasseing time as most of its fuel is spent trying to reach the target from a long distance and anyway this can carry phoenix’s so it could take a F-14 down far more easily

2 its not a JAS-39 its a raven its just useing the picture and even from the picture you can see that it is a far stealther desing than most moder day aircraft and finaly it has the range of up to 300NM on drop tanks and a patrol time of 4.5 hours so that is good range.

Island of rose if you are talking about a large carrier like a nimitz class then yes this could be modifided for carrier use but the wings are fixed and can't be foled so storage would be a problem, Production rights arent for sale but you can paint and call it whatever the hell you want when you buy them.
