Description
The F-37 Requiem was built from the shell of the F-27 Lynx which was the only original clean-sheet tail-less fighter jet ever built by Lunar Enterprises. The Lynx was an inferior aircraft, it flew clumsily and had no internal weapons bay, and it never saw production. The only flying prototype was put in a storage hangar and left to gather dust. That was until our engineers began designing an aircraft to the design specifications for a request put out by my good friends HB_Stratos and Servo. Lunar Enterprises was told to build a prototype for Contract Number 008; the contract calls for a tail-less, stealth, supersonic, supermaneuverable, STOL & Carrier Capable, 6th generation fighter jet.
After spending the better part of a week mulling over possible designs, our janitor, Jim, suggested that we consider using the old F-27 that had been sitting in the back of storage hangar number 31. Our chief engineer had been part of the team that designed the F-27 Lynx years earlier, and he had the aircraft brought into the EclipseWorks’ special projects hangar. Work on the air-frame began immediately; old and outdated steam gauges in the cockpit were replaced by high tech LCD displays, the body was smoothed, faceted, and coated in radar-absorbent materials, and space was made for an internal weapons bay.
The result was a brand new aircraft, capable of operating from a carrier, avoiding radar detection, and performing reality-defying maneuvers. The F-37 Requiem is exceptionally stable and maneuverable, it holds just over 1300 units of fuel, and has an internal weapons bay that can be opened using Action Group 3. In its current configuration it has 6 precision-striking stock rockets that can be fired in sets of 2.
A stock aircraft called F-37 Requiem Armed. Built with 242 of the finest parts, its root part is nacelleBody.
Built in the SPH in KSP version 1.5.1.
