#replica

An F-16 Viper (not fighting falcon) replica, that performs as good as it looks. I’m gonna put this warning earlier because it’s more necessary than ever, you NEED Atmospheric Autopilot to fly this. It is extremely unstable inherently, it doesn’t like straight and level flight. The stock RCS is not nearly good enough to make corrections for it, mechjeb is not enough, and FARs built in assistence isn’t enough (without tuning that I don’t understand how to do). Beyond that this thing is great, not only is it very capable as a rate fighter (what the real thing is known for) above 350kn, below that it also has a crazy ability to get the nose on. Helps that I didn’t turn off the reaction wheels used as ballast, but this thing is unflyable without them. It has autoflaps and autoslats I’ve already tuned a fair bit. Besides aerobatics it’s very quick due to it being light even with full fuel and payload. It has 4xAIM-120Ds and 6xAIM-9Xs, as well as 3 extra fueltanks that give it a stupid overall range, range without external tanks is still a bit better than the real thing. It also has functional spoilers in the same spot as the real thing.
