New Guy Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 why?in case, we can still use e-mails, PM's and this thread. now..... what kind of sensor suite? How about long-range surveillance systems like the one that a Blackbird or U-2 has? Quote
THEJETDEMON Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 How about long-range surveillance systems like the one that a Blackbird or U-2 has? [/q ok Quote
New Guy Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Or sensors like can be found in Dale Brown's novels, hehe Anyway, what propulsion are in mind for this bird? Quote
THEJETDEMON Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 Electromagnetic,scramjet,ramjet,turbofan, and bleed jet Quote
the test pilot Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 strike figher. what else? however, i am 16 and i have an hotmail account. just ask your parents to make it under their name. Quote
THEJETDEMON Posted June 22, 2008 Author Posted June 22, 2008 Weapons: 1.TLS (tactical laser system) 2.8 AMRAAMS 3.2 sidewinders 4.1 6 barreled cannon or 1.4 JDAMS 2.6 AGM-88 3.TLS 4.cannon 5.2 sidewinders or mix em up if you want to. Quote
New Guy Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 I'd rather use it for air superiority role, so I think I'll take the 1st loadout. And maybe some AGM's for limited strike... Quote
the test pilot Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 tailhook is a must, and reiforced gear for carrier ops. maybe folding wings? the TLS in a retractable turret, or in an external pod? Quote
JesterV2 Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 canopy wich can be opend and maybe a VTOL(vertical takeoff and landing) Quote
THEJETDEMON Posted June 23, 2008 Author Posted June 23, 2008 anyone have wings or fuselage types in mind PS.MUST BE STEALTHY Quote
the test pilot Posted June 24, 2008 Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) advanced bvr radar-driven engagement ability hi-speed data link to make it able to share datas with other allied aircrafts in area. integration between any system, 2 huge mfd touchscreen, helmet mounted HUD. poxibility to convert it to firefox-like mind waepon control, or to COFFIN system. pulse and ramjet engine. folding wings, with a RAM coat, like yukikaze's mave ones. FLIR/EO sensor with laser designator, with a FOV large like human's one, showed in a Picture-in picture on the helmet-hud. HOTAS, of course. Voice commands for secondary functions. a combat capable Autopilot, and a virtual RIO able to notify threats and to act as advisor during the mission and also in the planning phase. no VTOL, better an ESTOL ability (extremely STOL) and a low stallspeed. let's make it able to land on carriers without hook. however we will have it. for an insurance. in a bay like gear ones.

THEJETDEMON Posted June 24, 2008 Author Posted June 24, 2008 i am changing it from a sim fighter to a real fighter aircraft. I Applied for a government grant, so the plane has to be within budget. Quote
New Guy Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Anyone remembers/knows about XF-26 STALMA project? Maybe this can become another alternative beside of it if the budget fits. On the other hand, I think I need to quibble a bit for "firefox-like mind weapon control" as stated by the test pilot. My concern is like what happened in Dale Brown's novel Day of the Cheetah: XF-43 DreamStar neural interface systems aka. ANTARES actually turns the pilot into different personality and it is dangerous since the pilot become possessed with the aircraft and willing to sacrifice anything to save it... It's only my opinion though, no offense meant Quote
Dreamstar Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Dont you think its a bit hard to get possesed by a aircraft in a computer game? ANTARES or not Quote
i90807065 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 anyone have wings or fuselage types in mind PS.MUST BE STEALTHY Theres always the good ol' CFA-44 Nosferatu...(hint hint) Quote
the test pilot Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 we are trying to make something new. you can take design ideas from the nosferatu, but this has to be new. btw, the mind-control system i tought is just an one-way interface, just to prevent problems like ANTARES' ones and, as last instance... which budget limit? Quote

Got your idea About the budget, let's ask THEJETDEMON... Quote
THEJETDEMON Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 151.5 billion dollars estimated, maybe lower Quote
the test pilot Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 nice. not what i was thinking, but very nice. Quote
New Guy Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 SM-36 from stavatti Yup, that's the one I was talking about. The STALMA. They says it got active stealth by using some kind of plasma between the aircraft skins... Anyway, how stealthy our a/c will be? Quote
