The F-99 is an upgraded version of the F-22 meant to replace the F-15C and F-14 as it is carrier capable. To deal with a threat environment that can include literally thousands of targets the F-99 has an increased missile load as well as increase thrust and length. The stealth of the F-22 is retained in the F-99 which gives it a hefty advantage when engaging non stealthy aircraft and puts it on equal footing with most other stealth fighters. The F-99 features advanced systems and replaces the pulse Doppler radar of the F-22 with the more advanced multipurpose LADAR was well as upgraded EW.

A big thanks to Scellia for helping me with the design!

I assume that's static thrust?

Yes

OOC: A fair bird you got here. One problem: How could a Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 push a super cruise of 1.9 mach? I don't see this happening, the design can barely push 1.4 mach at its most capable ability, but past that its metals are sure to overload without further fuel (ie. afterburnners).

Besides that, I see no problem.

Um just make up a name or something, I'm not good with engines.

you could say something like XC2000 Turbofans... or LT54 Pulse Detonation Engines...

(just examples - check other people's custom planes if you want more ideas)

pretty much as long as you explain what kind of engine it is and its specs. Basically how much thrust does it provide and how fast does it guzzle gas (fast, slow, etc...)

OOC: A little more information on the engine, please. Is it single or dual spooled? Does it have afterburnner (regaurdless of the numbers, you have to say it)? Anything that makes it revolutionary?

The twelve Sultanates would like to obtain five (5) planes for testing in various roles. We are currently finding ourselves largely outgunned (my earth has lots of people moving into 2010 tech). The payment of $425 million USD equivalent will be sent on confirmation.

Is the F-99 designed for space combat or is used within the atmosphere of a planet or moon?
Dweladelfia prime

The F-99 is MT.

Modern Tech. So no space capabilities.
