The GTX-80 is a tandem triplane with canard foreplanes for extra lift during takeoffs and landings. made to fight enemy planes with deadly strikes and Dogfighting, this Fighter is one of The Ryous newest weapons in the air.

Not For Sale till later on.

It sounds more like a S/MTD with a Sukhoi cockpit(helm sight?)

The Principality of Siriusa would like to ask two questions:

1). Why must the Ryou Black Islands continue to re-produce planes that have been made before (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-15S/MTD)? After all, one can't really call it "introducing a new fighter to the world" when it has already been introduced.
2). Does this have anything to do with Gore-Tex (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GTX)?

OOC: Beat me by like.. 15 seconds. :D Was gonna ask why he didn't just say it's a renamed F-15.

(OOC: In all honesty, this is plagiarism.)

(OOC: The JHMCS is a Boeing cueing system used by the United States Air Force and Navy.)

OOC: Hey, it's not Draftroom, that's legal here.
I still don't agree to call renaming RL designs plagiarism.

Also, pls, don't tell on him you know what.

OOC: Yeah. Like what I did with the Montana class battleship. But I never pretended it was anything else, I just called it the Montana MkIV and said the electronics were modernized. >.> Erm. Can I suggest folks who use realworld equipment at least give credit where credit is due?
