Description

Intended to be a more conventional stealth fighter, the ‘Warhawk’ has proven itself not only to dominate the skies, but as a force multiplier popular with ground forces. With a large payload and respectable loitering ability, she is truly a force to be reckoned with.

Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.6.1.

Warhawk II features a very small frontal radar cross-section, coupled with a stealthy paint coat and diverter-less intake, makes for a virtually undetectable approach.

With internal fuel only, F-40’s ferry range allows it to make continental hops. Supplemented with a large external capacity, it can transit approximately a third around the planet, with no refueling needed.
