OoC: Ok, I'd say you'd have to up the speed.

My interceptor B version gets up to Mach 3.1 without afterburner and is a bit larger. However, it does carry almost a quarter more thrust then yours does.

That and some sort of operating/maxium height would be nice seeing as that if your interceptor can't even reach 1000 meters then nobody is going to buy it. Should be around 30.000 meters or something(90.000 foot)

alright, thanks :D

OoC: editted it a bit, I have some questions about your weapon load-out after I get my dinner.

Do.not.move.

OOC: Oh aye, of course. I'll have a think. I'm going out in an hour tho.

bumpsywhoopser.

bah

A few comments. First, what is the feasibility of having missiles on the canard foreplanes? I thought they were for higher AoA purposes; wouldn't having missiles there detract from this?

And why the increased speed? If this is modern, Mach 3 might be a tall order. The F-22's range maxes out at around Mach 2, I believe, though I've seen a widely varying range of sources. The F-22's engines are also rated at 35,000-lbs thrust apiece.
