OOC: This is basically to show everyone that I am developing a new jet, with the help of Truitt. However, since this is SIC, nobody knows about it but me and him.

The Numen VI ZFighter Jet is the newest addition to the Witzgallian Air Force. Ever since the Numen I came out and was able to go Mach 1.5 as its top speed, the International Community has awaited every single advancement in these high-speed fighters. The Numen II, deamed a miserable failure, may have suffered numerous engine "glitches", but on a good day was able to reach Mach 2. The Numen III, a great advancement in aeronautic developments, was a high speed fighter capable of reaching Mach 2.5 and had a supercruise of Mach 1.8.

The Numen IV was the first ZFighter Jet to be released to the public for exportation and sales, and was a major smash with many national organizations and airforces. The Numen V, capable of reaching Mach 4.2, was a wonderful aircraft and handled those high speeds with majestic beauty. Although some have claimed it to be a bad invention, when put into combat the Numen series always claims the head of the opposition.

Now, SolarStar Corporation, is proud to bring you the Numen VI. The sixth addition to the Numen series, this jet can go Mach 5.2 and has a supercruise of Mach 4. Yes, indeed...we said "Mach 4 supercruise."

Once again, SolarStar Corporation has made a "joint project" with a Truitti company called "Truitt and Hughes", or TyH for short. They developed the engine and a AAM that fits inside the wing (called the Weasle AAM, IR Guided).

SolarStar Corporation is currently waiting the TyH engine in order to standardize it into the Numen VI. Expected delivery of a test model is in 2 NS years.
