Fighters

D-F1 "Millenium" Multi-Role Fighter

http://www.ungaaktiesparare.se/images/bilaga1101_saab-bild.jpg

The Emerald Shipyard Corporations first try at a fighter. The Millenium is a high-tech multirole fighter, quite possibly one of the best in the world. After the fall of the Demcor Corporation, Demidia needed another source for its military needs. The Emerald Shipyard Company was born, after a few years, it branched from warships to missiles and now, to fighters. We think we have hit a winner with the Millenium.

Reconnaissance
With a centreline camera pod, accompanied by a video-hyperactive lens, it can perform a low level recon, from the saftey of high altitude.

Strike Mission
Armed with the DAS-103 “Empire” Air to Surface Missile and extra fuel tanks, the Millenium is perfect for long range anti surface missions.

Dogfighter
Armed with DAA-101 “Racer” Medium Range Air to Air Missile and a powerful 27mm cannon, it can scrap with the best of them.

Single Engine
Unlike most of the next generation fighters of tomorrow, the Millenium features a single engine based of the Orenda Iroquois engine of the 50s, don't let the age of the technology fool you, the original Iroqouis pumped out a whopping 30,000 pounds of thrust with afterburners. ESCO Engineers have tweaked the original Iroquois to meet government requirements of costs and weight. The ESCO's Iroquois II pumps out 37,251 pounds of thrust, this more than meets the Milleniums needs, and therefore, only requires one engine.

Air Defender
The Millenium can be equipped with 4x DAA-102 “Fatboy” Long Range Air to Air Missiles and 2x DAA-101 “Racer” Medium Range Air to Air Missiles. Paired with the Russian "Zaslon" Phased Array Radar, it poses a huge threat to incoming bombers.

Cockpit
A bubble canopy offers a superior 360degree panoramic view for the pilot. Specially structured seats and a remarkable 6 point harness strap the pilot in safley, yet comfortably as well. Various systems have been enabled for superior piloting, including fly-by-wire technology, a armrest mounted mini-joystick for improved mobility through tough g-force banks.

D-F2 "Virus" Strike Fighter

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/f-15-dfst9005987.jpg

The Virus is one of the fastest and deadliest Strike Fighters in the world. The Virus uses advanced radar and avionics to deliver a vast array of weapons night or day, in rain, sleet or snow. Advanced, Zaslon Radar as well as a secondary puslating doplar rader, combined with a GPS Tracking System second to none, makes this a potent enemy, for sea, land, or air.

Strike Mission
Armed with the DAS-103 “Empire” Air to Surface Missile and extra fuel tanks, the Virus should be the absolute number -one choice for strike missions on enemy targets.

Dogfighting
With its massive engines, and multiple hardpoints, combined with a 20mm Vulcan, this makes for one tough fighter. Armrest mounted mini-joysticks allow for maximum mobility even in tight g-forces, this gives you an edge over the competition.

Dual Engine
Like most of the next generation fighters of tomorrow, the Virus features dual ESCO Iroquois II combining for 74,502 pounds of thrust!

Anti-Radar
The Virus can be armed with AGM 88 HARM Missiles, one of a number of combinations available to the Virus.

D-F3 "Sideslinger" Long-Range Interceptor

http://www.airwar.ru/image/i/fighter/tornf3-i.jpg

The worlds armies are done with huge clouds of monstrous bombers invading enemy terriotry and dropping thousands of dumbombs. In todays fight, its all about tactical weapons, cruise missiles and precise bombing runs by fast, stealth aircraft. A forerunner in the fight against such foes is the Sideslinger. Its at the cutting edge of Demidian defense. Able to control intercepts for other aircraft and engage targets from sea level to the edge of space, the Sideslinger is one of the best interceptors of today, and quite possibly tomorrow.

Air Defender
The Sideslinger can be equipped with 6x DAA-102 “Fatboy” Long Range Air to Air Missiles and 4x DAA-101 “Racer” Medium Range Air to Air Missiles. Paired with the Russian "Zaslon" Phased Array Radar, it poses a huge threat to incoming bombers. The Zaslon is capable of tracking over 7 targets at once, providing more than adequate performance for the aircraft's needs. This combo poses a huge obstacle for incoming enemy cruise missiles, and bombers.
Dogfighting
A 20mm cannon and various Air to Air Missiles are the weapon of choice for this brute. Although its strengths lie in taking out enemy bombers and missiles, it can just as easily take out enemy ASF Aircraft, with its good manuverability and speed the Sideslinger is a good bet in a scrap.

Cockpit
A bubble canopy offers a superior 360degree panoramic view for the pilot. Specially structured seats and a remarkable 6 point harness strap the pilot in. Many high-tech systems have been enabled for superior piloting, including fly-by-wire technology, a armrest mounted mini-joystick for improved mobility through tough g-force banks, and helmet mounted gunsights.

Price: $32 million


D-F4 "Blacksky” Carrier-Based Multi-Role Strike Fighter

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/ef0003.jpg

The ESCO Aviation D-F4 Blacksky can vault from a carrier deck, bomb a target, and stay and dogfight with the enemy’s top guns. Navies around the world will be delighted with this versatile warplane, perfect for double duty against both air and surface targets. It has established a place as the backbone of any navy and provides superior marine duties.

Air Defense
Armed with “Racer” and “Fatboy” Air to Air Missiles and a 20mm Vulcan Cannon, the
D-F4 can compete against the worlds best air to air combatants.

Marine Mover
The Marine Corps uses the two seat D-F4B on night attack missions armed with laser guided bombs and other “smart” weaponry.

Radar-Killer
The Blacksky’s main task is to take out enemy radar installations using HARM Missiles. Allowing more bombers at pass through undetected.

Carrier Advantages
The Blacksky’s undercarriage is immensely strong, since it has to withstand repeated “controlled crashes” of carrier landings. Under the rear of the fuselage is an arrester hook for carrier landings when lowered this hook catches wires strung across the carrier deck.

Cockpit
A bubble canopy offers a superior 360degree panoramic view for the pilot. Specially structured seats and a 4 point harness strap the pilot in. Many high-tech systems have been enabled for superior piloting, including fly-by-wire technology, a armrest mounted mini-joystick for improved mobility through tough g-force banks, and special, night vision missile & gun scope.

A true giant of the air, the Pelican is the largest craft in production from ESCO Aviation, dwarfing even the American Galaxy, and Russian Ruslan/Condor. In fact this aircraft is so huge that the cockpit is over ten feet high when the aircraft is on the ground. It has the ability to carry tanks, missiles and heavy equipment over long distances. It features a rear loading ramp, upward hinging nose, and an interior so huge that 8,000-lb capacity winches and 22,000-lb capacity cranes are part of its regular on-board equipment. It features fly by wire controls and is made of composite materials.

Only 10 of these behemoths have been built, no other military has come forward.

I am very interested in your 'Virus' Strike Fighters. If you could put me down for ten, that'd be great. I'm on a small budget.
