The F/A-25
// History //
As the cost of a F-22 being simply outrageous and it's ability to maneuver and payload hampered it was viewed as a waste of money and so a fighter to replace that state of the art was made to, 1. Fill the needs of Sparta Infensus & The Valens Res Publica; 2. Provide more bang for your buck per-say. This fighter is the most maneuverable, fast, technologically advanced, lightest, and heaviest payload plane for the money you spend.

// General //
Crusader Weapons and Full-Spectrum Electronics were called upon by Sparta Infensus and Valens Res Publica to replace the F-22 as a superior fighter. Being able to carry more of a payload. Go faster; maneuver much, MUCH better, and have 3/4ths the RADAR cross section, and have a larger payload. These were the requirements and they were filled perfectly with this beauty of a plane. Having never been tested as both countries lack the proper facilities they now look outward to different Nations and Countries to combat test this plane.
// Airframe/Construction //
Airframe Makeup: 55% Titanium-Aluminide; 20% Super light durable plastics and polymers, 25% Al-Y-Ni Alloy, within a honeycomb frame
The F-25 uses a tri-surface configuration; with dual RAM coated canards, One aspect of the F-25 is its "switchblade wings" as their function is similar to that of a switchblade knife. At approximately 398 knots or 458 mph, the outer, forward-swept portion of the wing folds inward, leaving just the rearward-sweeping wings. At the same time, the twin ruddervators, normally in a "V" shape, fold down; so they are level with the aircraft's other wings. It is this wing configuration that gives the most Lindorm its incredible maneuverability across such a wide range of speeds. With the wingtips deployed, it has all the advantages of forward-swept wings, but since the 'switchblades' retract as speed increases (and are fully stowed well prior to mach transition), extreme wingtip twisting does not occur. The clean delta or spade configuration enables efficient, low-resistance high mach travel. Also the Canards feature leading flaps, flaperon's, and ailerons as do the normal wings. Deploying flaps causes a large nose-down pitching moment, to alleviate this effect swing-wing canard surface which swept forwards to counteract the effect of deploying flaps as to also give it extra lift at lower speeds and at higher speeds it makes this aircraft the most maneuverable ever made; a fighter unparalleled by any other.
// Propulsion/Engine //
Full-Spectrum Electric XF-121 Turboram engines, rated at 15,978 lbf (dry) each, with a 3D thrust vectoring control, allowing for a hyper-high amount of maneuverability. Which makes it a fighter unparalleled by any other. These engines are essentially normal Turbofan engines with a Ramjet built in. As once a speed where the Ramjet can effectively be used; being mach 1+ the turbo fan is turned off to use only the ramjet where the plane can then effectively reach speeds of Mach 5+
Thrust-to-weight Ratio: 8/1
Engine Weight (individual): 4,309 lbs
// Electronics/Avionics //
The F-25 utilizes the fly-by-optics system for the highest maneuverability possible, necessary in Air Superiority. Information is relayed to the pilot through 2 Super-High resolution TTFT screen, with most of the crucial information available through integrated avionics, in a dual screen configuration . (one main, one secondary screen’s) AVRS (Advanced Voice Recognition System) capability is available and is the primary source of changing displayed information instead of using the touch screens and distracting the pilot from his main task being controlling the plane. Thus allowing the pilot the maximum adaptability to the situation. Using a beyond visual range targeting system known as the AN-AGP 112 which allows the pilot of the F-25 to control his attacks in a full 360 degree radius. A LADAR sensor suite, which can help by tracking as far as 80 km and can map the area under the plane to provide a 3D real time map up to 40Km which can be brought up on the main LCD. Though the active radar which has a forward looking radius of 130 degrees and farther than any other RADAR for an aircraft known makes it the newest predator of the skies. A AN/ALQ-210 ECM pod; to hide it’s self from radar using planes, the ALQ-210 using TTFT’s to reduce it’s weight in comparison to ALQ-131 ECM Pod used by the USAF the by 85% and increase it’s effectiveness by nearly 800%! A EALR-52E Radar Warning Receiver which gives an early warning to a possible lock on or imminent lock on; as well as increasing it’s effectiveness in comparison to a current USAF Radar Warning Receiver by nearly 915% also through the use of TTFT’s! Despite that it comes ridden with area’s to store flares and chaff of the users preference. None is sold stock with the plane as none has been developed by the country and there are no alliances to provide Spiritu Sante with chaff or infrared flares cheaply.
// Weapons/Armament //
The F-25 has 6 Bays. 2 On each side meaning 4 parallel side bays and 2 ventral weapons bays. The 4 parallel side bays are meant for the carrying of missiles; and the 2 ventral for bombs. The ventral bays have stations for 4 bombs. 2 bombs in each bay which opens up a second before dropping to keep the radar signature low. The two bombs are in a vertical line, one behind the other.
Each side missile bay has a rotating 4 missile 6-shooting like loader. Meaning when 1 missile is dispensed the loader is rotated towards the next missile. This means (4 x 4) and 16 missiles total with 8 more internal in a dual horizontal missile configuration. Which means four missiles, two missiles upon a single hard-point one behind the other. (4 x 2)
A single retractable 35mm, HV Coilgun which is located directly under the cockpit; directly before the ventral bomb-bay.
// Counter Measures //
To ensure that LIDAR/LADAR equipment can’t successfully track the Lindorm, it employs laser scrambling systems that will scramble any light waves or laser beams. This ensures that the enemy can’t track the aircraft with light-oriented tracking devices also known as a Laser Dazzler. Also, thanks TTFT's ressiliance and ruggedness and exra measures to make it more refractive to EMP strikes. This plane wont fall out of the sky at an EMP strike.
